Does Your Child’s Math Homework Scare You?
If you answered “Yes!” to this question, come and join Math Curriculum expert, Stewart Craven, for a fun-filled evening to learn how parents and guardians can provide the best support for mathematics education at home.
Stewart will discuss current approaches to mathematics education in terms of both curriculum and pedagogy. He will also suggest some math activities that can be done at home and resources that can be easily accessed. There will be ample time for questions.
