Why is math so different from the way we learned it growing up? These new math standards make it so hard for me to help my child with their math homework!

If you've ever wondered why this "new math" is so different from the way we were taught, and this leaves you wondering how to help your child with math homework, then this is the episode for you! In this episode, I break down these "new math standards," what they are, how they were developed, why they are so important for your child's growth as a mathematician, and how you as a parent/guardian can make sense of them. For more information, ideas and listening guides, visit my website: www.mathcoachconnection.com
