Child's Play Maths: Video Units 5 - 8

Videos 5 - 8 of the series that supports and expands upon the Child's Play Maths 1 & 2 programme.

Child's Play Maths is designed to introduce maths concepts to children from the age of 5 years through to the age of 11 years. It can equally be used as an effective 'catch-up' programme for older children or adults who struggled to grasp maths concepts the first time round.

Video 5: Important Words and Phrases - reveals the key words and phrases used to introduce maths concepts to very young children when working with Cuisenaire Rods;

Video 6: Developing Memory Recall - the 'Learning Equation' and how it is fundamental to the success of the Child's Play Maths programme;

Video 7: Mental Imaging - explains what 'mental imaging' is, how it can accelerate your child's progress, and games to play to help develop this crucial ability;

Video 8: Cardinal Number - the common consequence of children failing to grasp this concept at an early stage in their development and how the programme enables them to acquire it naturally.

Also included are the accompanying PPT Presentations that comprise part of each video.

Four new videos plus the PPT Presentations will be added each month. Together they comprise a full years course.
