1GirlTwinBoys Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 We have Flashmaster, but was wondering what other ways have been successful for your kids. Are there any cd's or dvd's that we could use in the car?:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mama2two Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I saw this on Amazon, haven't bought it yet though. Mixed reviews but we like the states and capitals one by the same company http://www.amazon.com/Educational-Insights-4059-Addition-Songs-CD/dp/B000L6N8JS My son is currentlyu using Calculadder. It seems to be working well and he really enjoys it. He likes trying to beat his time and use the stop watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kate in Arabia Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 For the times tables, my kids like Multiplication Rock from Schoolhouse Rock. You can listen to most of the videos on YouTube, if you aren't already familiar, to give you an idea. I don't know of any like that for +/- though...

Stellalarella Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Well, I am finding out that doing copywork on basic addition facts is helping my DD7. I can't say that flashcards were working for us, but the copywork helps her. This morning after she finished her MUS page, she copied the plus two and plus eight facts. I go the idea from the Queen Homschooling website. They suggested that doing math copywork also helped their children with math facts. They sell a pre-printed product that one can purchase. I just write out the facts on a piece of paper and ask her to copy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
