x-post: Teaching Textbooks... should I get the workbook? Graph Paper? White board?


Recommended Posts

my kids just work on a white board. I bought the workbooks last year and they sat unused. The workbook in the lower levels is just a word for word copy of what's on the computer lecture and the problems are exactly the same.

 

Not sure about Pre-Algebra and up (I know they are updating Pre-alg and Alg I)

My kids love the white board, too. Their favorite way to do math is with window crayons on our patio door. Not as easy to wipe off, but they get so excited and motivated when I pull them out! We rarely use the workbooks.

It sounds like your DD likes the whiteboard and is used to copying the problems to it.

 

In our experience, though, my DS likes to write in the books. We tried having him write on separate paper, but he was copying things wrong and it was frustrating for him. So now he works in the books and transfers his answers to the computer.
