We have been using Math U See for a couple of years now. It is working well for my girls, but sometimesI have found that we need to mix things up a bit. If you are in this situation with your kids, you may be looking for some things you can use to help them reinforce their math facts and get some more practice with those fun, colorful blocks.
I wanted to share with you some great things I found that would go well with Math U See!
