Way to confuse children. My kids learn the standard algorithms too. How do the other ways save time? Sure, it's great if you want to rely on a calculator all the time but what if it runs out of batteries or you don't have one with you, OR you want to know how to do it yourself? Math is a pet peeve of mine. I am by no means great at math but I can't count how many times I have had to help the cashier with the correct amount of change I am due back because they hit a wrong key and are incapable of simple subtraction without a calculator. This doesn't just include teenagers at a first job, but people my own age too. Sorry to vent but I am glad I'm not the only one rejecting the "new math"Mommy to threehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18260785679196300920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-49997436377302806112013-04-07T14:18:20.874-05:002013-04-07T14:18:20.874-05:00Oooo....

I was reading long ...She is looking very grown up. <br />I was reading long before writing too, I had no interest in the pencil, just wanted to read the wonderful stories. Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.com
