Review :
I love math! But my wife and three homeschooled boys, 10, 6 and 2, don't always share my enthusiasm. This book has helped me realize the seemingly limitless opportunities to help my children learn the importance of and enjoy math, and I never thought about how much math they are already doing! Math is, indeed, everywhere. In these pages I found easy to understand theory behind childhood development and also wonderfully practical and specific examples of math learning. I highly recommend this entertaining and useful guide for any adult who raises or teaches children. Whether you are a math lover or math hater, this book is for you! Timely! Young people have lost the art of discovery and inquiry. They can simply 'ask Siri' or 'Google it'. Math is often one of the most feared courses for entering college students. In my opinion, this is for one or two reasons: 1. They have always felt that the language of numbers was confusing, especially when you start adding letters to equations 2. When they ask 'when will I ever need to use this again' the frustration for learning the language of math is greater than any suggested future usefulness That youthful frustration can lead to college students who are Math avoidant at worst, and at minimum, lacking in financial literacy. Colleges’ nationwide have found it necessary to implement Financial Literacy content in their curriculum to fill the gap. Back in the day, Financial Literacy was a life skill! Place your child ahead of the curve, get to work on these practical, 'this is how you will use math' activities as soon as you can. Hopefully they will learn the value of money through the activities, make millions, and you can enjoy their inheritance now since they won’t need it. Math is Everywhere is a practical and creative guide bursting with ideas to help educators and parents alike apply classroom concepts to real world activities. Whatever level of interest, this book shows how you can create opportunities to learn from any task, space, interest, or idea. Overall, this book inspires individuals to consider math in new ways that allows application of common core standards any day of the week.
