Math is funny to me. I stink at it yet my older daughter is a whiz, she's taking all of the math classes in high school that i never made it to. My younger daughter unfortunately has my math genes and the way they do math now is nothing like what i was taught at her age. In fact, my older daughter wasn't taught the same way. Nothing is the same as when i went to school, they don't even teach handwriting or cursive anymore. Chicken scratch is apparently acceptable since everyone types now.
..and what will be worse, this untaught generation is unable to read cursive....although I think most are unable to read period! I was taught Palmer method of penmanship...now that dates me, but I am proud of my cursive writing and thank heaven for the patient nuns who taught us!
