-I'm looking for a good way to get my daughter to practice math so she doesn't forget EVERYTHING before she heads back to school. Any suggestions?There are computer games that emphasis maths as well as DS games ie maths training. I wouldn't stress too much, kids need down time and that's what holidays are for. Maybe once a week you could encourage her to use her maths skills playing games. You don't want to burn her out!
And if she isn't learning to play a musical instrument, I totally recommend you get her started. There is a link between music and maths ability and aptitude. And you can learn alongside her! I took up clarinet when my daughter started to learn a year ago (and her overall grades have improved) and we take a lesson together and even play duets together. She loves that I'm there learning with her. And you're never too old! Our teacher has a 78 year old learning!
My daughter has been playing on an online game website called Always Icecream that has math practice in it. She loves to play because there are lots of incentives provided in a MiniWorld that is on the site where she can raise virtual pets, decorate a virtual home create artwork and more. She loves playing there and in order to do those things, she has to earn "scoops" by playing quiz style learning games in math, science, geography, typing and music. So, it is great - she loves to play and I like that she is learning. There are also no advertisements on the site which I really like. And it is designed just for girls 7-12 which I also like. I would definitely recommend it as a way to practice math and other school subjects in a really fun environment. There is a free trial on the main website at www.alwaysicecream.com.
I think there are some computer games that focus on developing math skills. You could also try looking around for some fun websites about math for kids.
Don't. Teachers usually take the first quarter to review everything anyway let her have some fun
Flash cards! :)
threaten to ground her
Do things with money
