Math Fables
by Greg Tang Heather CahooonFor some children, make comes fairly easily. For others, it is a challenge nearly every step of the way. What accounts for this difference? Is there a special math gene that makes math easy for some kids and difficult for others? Fortunately, the answer is "no." Success is often determined by how fluent children are with numbers, the language of math. When kids develop a good understanding of numbers at an early age, everything else-arithmetic, algebra, even geometry-follows naturally.
