Numbers, patterns and lots of "I got it!"
Math grows like a staircase. Little ones count, compare and add within 10. In 1st and 2nd grade, kids add and subtract within 100, learn place value and start regrouping: 47 + 28 = 75. Third grade brings multiplication, division and fractions, and 4th and 5th graders tackle long division, decimals and area. Every step stands on the one before it, so a strong foundation in counting and place value pays off for years.
These moves work from kindergarten counting to 5th grade decimals.
When kids are stuck on place value or regrouping, go back to base 10 blocks. Have them build 64, trade a ten for ten ones, and then take away 27. Once they see it with blocks, the written steps finally make sense.
Why it works: kids understand an idea best when they touch it, then draw it, then write it, the order the U.S. Department of Education recommends for elementary math.

Why it works: when kids say the precise math words, their understanding gets sharper, a recommendation of the U.S. Department of Education's elementary math guide.

Why it works: a catchy, repeating tune gives the brain a hook to hang words on, so sung text is remembered better (Wallace, 1994).

Kindergarteners count and add within 10, 2nd graders add and subtract within 100 with regrouping, 3rd graders multiply and divide, and 5th graders work with decimals and fractions. Filter by grade to find resources for each level.
Use everyday moments: count snacks, measure while cooking, add up prices at the store. A quick math game after dinner keeps skills fresh.
Word problems mix reading with math. Have your child read it twice, draw a picture of what is happening, and say which operation fits before solving.
Through short, frequent practice. Flash cards, songs and quick games a few minutes a day build fact fluency faster than long drills.
