Conceptual Math Levels A/B/C/D
Saturday August 16, 2025 10:35am - 11:25am CDT
Our Right Start math program emphasizes understadnign math concepts prior to memorizing math facts. This Asian approach to teaching math in the early years serves students well for years to come as they learn to think of math as a language that can be expressed with practice. The daily enagement in math games helps students to master these concepts in a developmentally appropraite format. Come and learn to teach math through play rather than with merely worksheets and flashcards.
