[quote=Anonymous][quote]However, I can't really connect that to your husband in any way. It seems that he either did have early experiences exploring with math, whether on his own or with an adult who enjoyed playing math games with him, or a talented teacher, and he doesn't remember them because he was young when they happened, or he didn't have those experiences and figured out creative strategies on his own. Either way that's great, but I'm not sure I understand how it relates to the idea that children today shouldn't have opportunities to explore a variety of strategies. [/quote] If the teacher has to teach the kids multiple strategies and expect mastery on multiple strategies--when is there time? I taught school, time is a commodity that is needed to teach lots of different things. This is unrealistic.[/quote]
