[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 324204, member: 412"] "Common Core/Investigations Style" math can be a good thing, but, IMO you need a strong foundation of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division/fractions/decimals certainly through 10, 12 is even better, committed to memory first. My dad taught my sister and I to get close by moving to an easily manipulated 5 or 10 then cleaning up the delta at the end. As a result, sis and I can do basic math in our head fairly quickly. I work on the same things with my kids, but, we also worked very hard on committing to memory add, subtract, divide and multiply through 12's with my oldest and are in the midst of doing the same with our youngest. My kids have learned, "I hate Math" or "Math is hard" are both unacceptable answers. [/QUOTE]
