Nov. 9, 2008 - Can math be fun?
I didn't use to think so but after getting the chance to review the November module for the Old Schoolhouse Planner. Go to TOS November Module to view the module it is $7.95 for a ebook download, and I must say it is worth it.
Some of the great things about this ebook module:
- Fantastic number tricks sure to surprise everyone you try them on, your very own set of printable tangram puzzle pieces, printable pattern blocks and so much more! Our “hands-on” approach gives you more than just facts to make your kids memorize; we provide you with tools to help them demonstrate their proficiency at math.
- Great math jokes and riddles that are sure to amuse everyone.
- Activity pages (with answers) to take the knowledge one step further. Try our “math minute” pages, make a clock, work a word search and more! Coloring pages made just for this module!
- Copywork pages covering time, money, calendars and numbers created by Virginia Donahue from Proverbs 22:6 Academy.
- Along with some great sounding, recipes. I LOVE new recipes.
There seems to be something for every age including coloring pages for those children who aren't really old enough for school, this way they can feel part of things while coloring and taking a part in something most children enjoy. I was amazed at the neat activities and such that utilize math, if math had been presented this way in my public school education I probably wouldn't have been told "you can't go to college, you can't do math" by a high school teacher! For me, math needs to be fun and have a distinct why or a way to use it relative to the day's world and this really seems to make the math relative to schooling and the world around us. Just in case for some reason you aren't satisfied, but I don't see a reason why you wouldn't be, The Old Schoolhouse gives every ebook a money back guarantee. So I would say to go over take a look and see what this module is all about.
