How to Teach Math Facts

Rating:
Summary: It is OK. But find another book if you can.
Review: I bought this book based on the first review. I found the book not so great. It showed some tricks. But I know more tricks than what the book has shown--I am just an average science major with no teaching or math degree on my belt.

The 3x5 card approach does not seem very smart, either. I don't see how it is better than "practice,practice, practice". There must be a better way for teaching kids math. Does anybody have any suggetions of a better math-teaching book?

Summary: Excellent resource for teachers and parents
Review: This is a very helpful book to teach math facts, especially for those students who find it difficult to memorize basic facts. There are lots of neat tricks to share with students to make math fun and successful. I recommend this book for parents and teachers of third and second graders.
