[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's all those stupid worksheets. They need BOOKS that they can refer to, flip back to previous concepts and say, "Oh, NOW i get it!" Instead it's these absurd exercises with nothing of substance written on them to help them learn. It's just crazy.[/quote] They didn't used to have BOOKS, either. Except for maybe a math textbook, which wasn't bad but also wasn't good, and weighed a ton, and I don't think that there were many third-graders referring to them.[/quote] There are so many on-line resources that I can not agree on the need for a book. My kids have books (HS) and never use them. They like the variety of choices on line so they can find something that makes sense to them...and pre-2.0 there were no books either.[/quote] I believe that if they stick with this awful common core that most parents don't even understand, they would benefit from having math workbooks that progress thru the grade like it was planned to do so. I rather my kids have workbooks than the promethium boards. [/quote]
