Description

Wayne Wickelgren volunteered as a coach for math teams for many years at his childrens' schools. He explains what the main contests are and suggests how to organize and coach a math club. About 100 pages are devoted to tips on how to teach math from basic arithmetic through algebra. The 30-page appendix on math learning resources covers texts and workbooks, math software, preparation for math contests and standardized tests, summer camps and distance learning programs, advanced summer math and science programs, and other topics. This is a good book both for parents who struggle in math and for parents of children who are gifted and are looking to accelerate their children.
