We're just getting back in the groove of school, and it's been a bit of a slow process.
Math is always such a stinker! LOL! I started using Teaching Textbooks with my ds when he was in the 7th grade. Or 8th? I can't remember. Anyway, it was a life saver. It's all on the computer, which I wouldn't normally like, but it works. Have you heard of them? You watch a lecture first, about 10 minutes I'd say. Then you do a few practice problems, then the lesson problems. He will show you how to do each and every problem if you can't figure out what you're doing wrong. It's a little cartoon-y, but too childish. Whenever anyone asks me about math I start chanting TEACHING TEXTBOOKS! TEACHING TEXTBOOKS! I should be a paid endorser. I actually like the guy's voice. There's a demo you can watch.
