[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is math under 2.0 "deeper"? I'm not trying to be a pain, just generally curious. I just don't really understand how concepts like arithmetic and fractions are made deeper. Is it just more repetition or something?[/quote] Have you seen how your child needs to explain or solve math problems in multiple ways? I believe that is what is seen as deeper- going beyond being able to get the answer and understanding different ways to get there and why the answer is what it is. [/quote] I am sorry. The goal of math education really should not be explaining basic math operation in English. And I surely hope they don't teacher the alternative algorithm nonsense. [/quote]
