Ms. Karen L. Davis the Creator, President and Chief Executive Officer, admits that she hated math in in the past. However, she turned her hate into a wonderful passion that she shares with a growing audience. She understands that people do not perform well in math. Ms. Davis remembers how she felt about math and now she wants to help others acquire an affinity for math, or at least not hate it. I appreciate her efforts. The site also focuses on making math fun. Ms. Davis wants students to have confidence approaching and learning math. I think the site is great! You can increase you math learning by visiting:

Debra,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed looking at this website. I will be the first to admit that I have not always liked math. Some of the concepts that are taught can be difficult to understand and with the help of this website, we can hope that all students understand the information that we present to them. This is a great tool that can be used both in and out of the classroom. It is imperative that teachers share this educational website with the families that they work with so that they can continue to help their child learn even when they are not in the classroom.
