SciMathmn.org and California Mathematics Council Help Your Children Make Sense of Math We want your children to become better and stronger thinkers. One way to help is ask good questions and be good listeners. Help your children make sense of mathematics and build self confidence and encourage mathematical thinking and communication. None of the questions can be answered with “Yes” or “No”. Getting Started What do you need to find out? What do you know? How can you get the information? Where can you begin? What terms do you understand/not understand? What similar problems have you solved that would help? While Working How can you organize the information? Can you make a drawing to explain your thinking? What are other possibilities? What would happen if …? Can you describe an approach (strategy) you can use to solve this? What do you need to do next? Do you see any patterns or Relationships that will help you solve this? How does this relate to …? Can you make a prediction? Why did you …? What assumptions are you making? Reflecting about the solution How do you know your solution (conclusion) is reasonable? How did you arrive at your answer? How can you convince me your answer makes sense? What did you try that did not work? Explain how you know the questions has been answered? Can the explanation be made clearer? Responding Tell me more. Can you explain it in a different way? Is there another possibility or strategy that would work? Is there a more efficient strategy? Help me understand this part …

Cooking Guessing the grocery, food bills etc. Estimating the materials for projects. (painting, wood working, new carpet) Sales prices at stores. (percent, or fraction off) Tracking prices of products at the same store compared to other similar stores. (Example: Cub vs. Target vs. Rainbow) Recording times and distance for trips or sports activities. Figuring out gas mileage or cost to go on a trip. Helping your parent budget. (Electric bill, gas bill, phone bill, etc) Keeping track of how much you recycling. (Making a graph table, etc.) Investigate a life style habit by charting the amount you do it. (Example: How much pop you drink, how much TV you watch) Compare activities you spend time doing. (TV vs. Homework vs. Physical activities) How can you do math at home? Ideas:
