Homework can be a chore for both students and parents. How many times have parents said “ Maths at school now is different from when I was there”, “ I forgotten all that stuff and I couldn’t do anyway” or “ Go ask someone else”. Quite recently David Beckham expressed the same sentiments about his children concerning mathematics. So even stars have problems!
The Education Department is suggesting that parents become more involved and supportive of our children. It would be great if we could feel slightly more confident about mathematics but where would you start?
Statistica is offering informal workshops in Perth, Western Australia and online help to help parents regain and refresh their confidence in mathematics. Sign up now The workshops will start soon.
