Making maths fun....

Who ever said maths cannot be fun? How many of you have memories of learning the time tables? Who is battling with their kids to get them to learn the time tables? Are you still faster at time tables than your kids? I certainly am. I hate to admit it though!!!

This morning I participated at a math workshop at my kids school just to understand how exactly they do get taught mathematics in class. My conclusion: not the conventional way! This is fine with me. I did choose the International system for that exact reason but ... PLEASE ... let's just get them to learn their time tables inside out and back-to-front AND FAST!!!!!!!!!!
