I’ve mentioned that I struggle a little when it comes to teaching Math, but thankfully, we have found a program that is working for our older two.
Meleah, who will be 5 in September, is just now beginning formal schooling, so I’m always open to tips on teaching Math to younger kiddos. So far, Meleah knows her colors, shapes, and numbers very well, and we have used the Classical Conversations method for teaching facts. She also loves playing number games on the iPad. Meleah is an awesome helper around the house, and helps measure and count ingredients when we cook together.
Meleah made scrambled eggs all by herself!
