[quote=Anonymous]As has been said, it's easier after third grade AAP, where they're covering two years worth of math content. All of my kids "get" math easily, but they had moments of needing me to go over things in third grade. The math teacher poster, while a bit dismissive of the teaching ability, experience, and knowledge of parents, did make a good point. Remember that the kids are being presented some concepts in a different way than you were taught. (I've lost track of how many versions of "new math" I've survived, as an oldster.) Have your child show you what the teacher taught them, and how he/she wants them to do the math, and keep it in mind when you're working with them. You want to work with the teacher is doing. That said, there are elementary school teachers who might be good in other areas, but have their own problems with math, and don't teach it well. [/quote]
