D What to do in School & Why  

E.How to Study Mathematics


To read, write and spell, your children need to learn and memorize the alphabet. Anything less would be absurd. That being said, learning and using mathematics demands that your children meet key skills and concepts, and not skip any. Where local schools do not provide the latter, you need to provide remedies.

Care and Precision: If your child  can learn to follow multi-step methods carefully and precisely in arithmetic, he or she may do so  in other subjects, as well. Get your child or teen, if you can, to sit down and study. Suggest he or she aim for skill and concept development and perfection for their own sake, not that of their teachers.

The will to learn is the key to success in school.  Parents do have to be educated to support or guide their children and teens. What matters more is support for the will to learn, for children and teens to be  told to try to learn and to ask teachers, their schools or classmates for help and more help, as needed. Teachers and parents need to push students, help them find the will to learn, teamwork helps.

The main reason and focus for high school mathematics is or should be preparation for calculus. That requires skill and knowledge perfection with fractions, algebra, geometry, trig and functions. Many high school programs do not provide this. Make sure alone or with help that your children and teens have a good command of fractions.
