Clever Ways of Making Learning Fun
Growing up, maths was never my strongpoint I found it ever so boring. I preferred to daydream in my lessons rather than try and rack my brain for the correct answer. I remember in year 3 when I was struggling to learn my times tables. Once a week each child had to stand up in front of the class and recite their timetables. I remember dreading those days. My teacher was pretty concerned and mentioned this during the parents evening to my mum. My struggle with learning the times tables was the main topic of conversation. All I heard was, ?She?s really enthusiastic, but needs to learn her time tables.? I remember feeling really annoyed and thinking if only there was a way to make it interesting, I could do better.
A few days later when I came back from school my mum told me that she had bought a cassette tape about the times table. She then put it into the stereo and I started to listen: it was a range of songs which really helped me master my times tables. Almost every day after school, I would listen to the times tables songs and was able to learn it that way. I was finally able to stand up in front of my class and recite my timetables from memory. It was so much easier for me to understand it after I?d listened to the tape. To this very day when I walk down the street I still hum the melody of the time table songs. Visual learning tactics
Have you noticed your child is struggling with a particular subject area at school" Are they getting some low numbers on their repo...
