Intro
Candace Smothers Author and Creator of Math Sharp Kids, homeschooled her children for 14 years and began work on a Math book in 1991. The first book she wrote was like any other, so she had to rethink what it was that she wanted to accomplish. She wanted her kids to learn simple math facts, not count on their fingers.
She didn't want to use the standard addition algorithm. Instead, she found an algorithm that corresponded with the way the facts were taught in the board and card game that she created. She wrote hundreds of addition problems and math drills. Addsharp to the Pirate Treasure is the first official game in the Mathsharp series, but she also has games for subtraction, doubling and halving, and multiplication and division.
Top three takeaways
You can add faster than a calculator using the Add Sharp Addition.
Math doesn't have to be a drudgery. It can be fun, fulfilling, and something you love to do.
How kids with learning challenges give them ways to learn and retain information using games with mnemonic strategy, patterns, chunking, and adventure treks.
