 Why do we teach math?

Math is everywhere!
Whether your child will grow up to be a mechanical engineer or a stay at home mom, kids need to learn their math facts.

Basic Math Skills necessary for life:

  • adding/subtracting
  • multiplying/dividing
  • measuring to the nearest 32nd of an inch, or millimeter (English and metrics)
  • Basic geometry: shapes and solid figures (cone, sphere, prism)
  • finding area and perimeter.

My Opinion:
God is a mathematician!
Anything that is important to Him is important to us and therefore worthy to teach to our children.

    you are absolutely right. Anybody who argues with me about teaching math – I look at them like they have 4 heads. The kids need it – definitely. You know, you never ever know what you are going to do in life – or where life might take you.

    Math is absolutely – positively necessary.

      Agreed. Plus, there is no easier time to learn the foundations of math than childhood.

      Do you use a math curriculum or do you just teach foundations like facts, fractions, etc?
