Hi FairyeducationI have tried on my child and work on her concepts.Everything is fine, but she tends to have problem like overlook draw 16 instead of 18 units,carelessnes here and there, as if not focussing...and initially I also see her straightaway jump to solving the prob sum, not processing it first....May I know, is there a way to teach a kid that they have to process, instead of just read and straightaway draw without processing it?thanksfridayeducation:For problem sums, is it the sentence/phrasing that your kid does not understand?Maybe you can try pulling sentences/phrases out of a question and ask your kid to just draw models for that sentence. Eg. QuestionPearl has some beads. 3/8 of them were red and the rest were blue. She has 60 blue beads. (a) How many red beads did she have?(b) How many beads did she have altogether?Instead of getting your kid to solve everything. Just ask your kid to draw a model based on \"3/8 of them were red and the rest were blue.\"Keep doing this repeatedly so that he'll get a hang of understanding the phrasing of a question.
