| Video Discription | Math is fun. Kids need to realize this from an early stage. Actually, I said it wrong. Parents need to realize that math is fun from the early stages of their kids. The video provides general guidelines on how to develop math skills, starting from PreK, kindergarten, first grade, or in any elementary-level. More details are available in this link: https://settleinelpaso.com/how-to-help-a-child-develop-early-math-skills/ Are you worried about how your child will perform in Math as he or she goes to upper-level classes? This video provides a brief outline of how you can make Math a part of your child's life in such a way that Math becomes fun. Number one: Make sure that your child understands — Math is not hard. Fear of math in the early stage propagates in upper-level classes of the elementary, middle, as well as in high school. Therefore, it is of utmost necessity to make sure that math is really taught early. Moreover, teach math early as a part of daily life, not quite as formal lessons. Number two: Build a collection of math resources for your child. Build your own math resource-bank for your child. Such resources can simply include planning what you will speak about with your child or resources from different websites. While speaking with your child with an intention to teach math, start with simple examples from real life. “You have three oranges, I have given you two more. How many oranges do you have now?” This is probably too simple if your child is going to kindergarten or in the first grade. Yet, asking such simple questions is a great start because you do not want to frustrate your child in the very beginning by asking what is the quotient after dividing one hundred by three. You will find hundreds of worksheets over the internet suitable for your child’s math practice. Education.com has free math worksheets for different levels including kindergarten and the first grade. Khan Academy also has ample resources for early math education. Number three: Practice what is taught in the school. Keep track of what is taught in the class. You might not see a lot of homework in kindergarten and in the first grade. From the limited amount of homework you will see, it is easy to realize what topics are being covered in your child’s class. During weekends and breaks, make sure to practice the topics at least half an hour a day. We do not want our kids to suffer from learning loss of math during weekends, breaks, or in holidays. Number four: Consider math a skill. Many of us send our kids for violin, piano, ballet dance, or even Taekwondo lessons. There is no reason why math cannot be considered a skill in a child’s life. Your child can go for Math Olympiads if she or he is interested. Kumon's math programs are available in many cities. Make the best utilization of these resources to develop the math skill in your child. Number five: Make math a part of life, even during breaks. Some may argue — what kind of parents we are, who keep their children learning even during breaks. My argument back is — we do not stop eating meals during a break. We may play the violin during vacations. Why can’t we just do the fun of math for half an hour each day during breaks? It is easy to offer a lot of fruitless fun for our children. If you incorporate active learning as fun, then you have converted the fruitless fun to a fruitful one. Math is a skill that is the easiest to incorporate in daily activities. Some examples are: play the monopoly game, let your child count grocery items while shopping, seek help from your children in budgeting, and measure lengths of flower beds when you are in a garden with your child. Possibilities are endless. Number six: Pretend play. Little ones are helpers. Pretend as if you are struggling to count how many candies you have. Or, you need to count how many apples are left after you gave away some to a friend. Your child will definitely come to your rescue. Number seven: Stay ahead. Start math pretty early. Teach your child math topics of the next grade. Why should we do that? School can become burdensome if a child struggles with the concepts that are taught in the class. With being familiar with advanced topics at home, schoolwork will feel easy. There will be NO fear of math to make the lives of the little ones miserable. Aren't we all trying to help our kids so that they enjoy what they are doing? Hope you enjoyed the video.
