SUPPORTING YOUR CHILD’S LEARNING in MATHEMATICS:
Relate Math to real life
Talk to your child about how you use maths everyday so they can see how the maths they are learning at school relates to real life. For example, explore how you use fractions in cooking , percentages while shopping, distance in driving, keeping score in games and telling the time.
Discover the beauty of Math
What shape can be made by unfolding a carton? How many apples can be packed into the fruit tray? What shape is in that box? How do you draw a circle with a piece of rope? Next, explore mathematics in nature, music, visual arts and architecture.
