Synopsis

In this eBook, an experienced Montessori teacher shows parents how to use a clear sequence of activities to teach their 3-5 year old children about mathematics, or to help their 6-7 year olds who are struggling with math to succeed. Most activities use common items, and recommendations are also given for affordable math learning materials. A link is included to a free collection of math printables for use with many of the activities.. Ideas on helping children learn are followed by activities to develop pre-math skills, and then amounts and numerals into the thousands, the Decimal System, operations with numbers, fractions, solid and plane geometric shapes, and many activities for using math skills in everyday life. Most children naturally develop an increased interest in numbers and language at around 3-5 years of age. This book shows you how to make the most of this sensitive period to give your child a firm foundation of math skills, and a positive, confident attitude toward number work that will carry on throughout the school years. There is no need for children to dislike math! Starting early with these fun, simple activities, you can send your child to kindergarten or first grade already doing math at a second to fourth grade level, setting the stage for early and continued success. If your child is having problems with math in kindergarten through second grade, these activities can save the day and turn math from a struggle to success!
