Thank you kindly for the offer, but I would really like for someone to teach me how to delete the post as I have other books for sale that I will eventually need to delete.

Hello All, This year for school my son is going to start a business. While most of his subjects will be covered in starting the business, he will still need a science credit. He is interested in Audio Engineering and I was wondering if anyone could help me with a list of topics/set of goals that he might want to consider including in his studies. He is very self motivated in the learning process, but struggles with keeping tabs on what he is actually learning. I'm trying to help him get organized. Thanks in advance, Debbie

How did the Zome Geometry go, I've been eyeing it for years and wondering if I should get it. My second wave of kids are getting old enough that I'm considering the purchase. Also, would you mind posting or pm me a list of the pieces necessary to do all of the constructions? I can't seem to find that information anywhere online. Thanks!

Has anyone seen/used the Make:Geometry book? Looks like it came out August 2021 and uses coding and 3D printing as part of teaching Geometry. It seems to be connected to Make magazine. Thanks, Debbie

Wow! Thanks so much. This is a game changer. Blessings, Debbie

Can anyone help me find a way to help my 16 year old with geometry? He is naturally math inclined and struggles with learning languages. He says that Geometry is NOT math, it is a foreign language. Any ideas? We've already lost so much time this year due to getting used to having a baby in the house again, COVID, Chickenpox, and a wedding. How do we make the time he put into this count for something?
-
Hello, can anyone help me out with a comparison of these two programs? I like the fact that Rightstart is helping the kids transition to working independently. I think, if I'm not mistaken, that Geometry Labs is very teacher intensive. Thanks in advance, Debbie

Just wondering why you're choosing to use the 1st edition of G. Is that simply what you have on hand, or do you prefer it to the newer edition?

Okay, just went back and reread the initial example of 34 tens or ten 34s. To me it seems easier to find 34 tens. I mean, I for one don't typically count by 34s. But counting by tens is easy peasy. If I know (or can figure out that) ten 10s are 100 then three of those are 300. And 4 tens are simply 40. Whatever clicks for the child though.
-
Yes, but if the child realizes that they are equivalent then they can choose the easier one to solve. Does that make sense? With my kids they didn't necessarily initially recognize that they had that option.
-
That is the beauty of modeling with blocks. You can use an area model and show that 34 tens is the same as ten 34s. A good exercise might be to build a model and ask if she can find two ways to represent the model.

I have always thought it important to teach the whys behind math and to struggle through for an answer. Like 8filltheheart said, I just had never heard it put so plainly. Pam Harris helps by giving teachers strategies to work through problems in ways that get kids thinking outside of the box.
-
So true!

Has anyone here heard of Pamela Harris? I just did a free 3 day challenge webinar series that she offers and it was amazing! The biggest takeaway for me was the idea that teaching kids math in a way that requires them to think through what they're doing is an excellent way to begin to teach logic to young children and promote independent thinking. Love it!
