My big thing on that is trying to train him to "double check" his work because in real life those errors can mean a lot. If he makes an error and obviously he hasn't mastered a concept, then he does the whole problem over again sometimes with me help.

My dd hates to read anything and my eldest son too does not like reading. I wonder if the kindle would make them more interested though. we might get that next year.kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06403839587472802558noreply@blogger.com
