[quote=Anonymous]Was just doing some research as my daughter is having great issues with this Everyday Math, she goes to tutors 2x a week. We spent a lot of money to have her tested the results were she is off the chart in her reading/vocabulary but has issues with learning math using this idiosyncratic method. Half of the kids in her class have to use tutors, as they jump from one topic to another never learning the core math. Seriously this new math is nothing more than a gimmick someone came up with and the schools have bought into for some reason. I really feel for family's that cannot afford tutors or alternate education because of EDM. I found this letter from a Stanford Professor that pretty much sums it up. http://everydaymathsucks.com/everyday-math-letter-from-stanford-professor/[/quote]
