Hello everyone,

The website may be helpful if you need a little help explaining how to do a problem to your child. They use videos and printable worksheets and it goes from basic addition (1+1) to trigonometry to calculus and everything in between.

Check it out: www.mathmaster.org

Here is a link to a website full of videos on anything you can imagine and for any age. I particularly like the dance instructional videos. These are under ‘The Arts’ and they are kid friendly. Sometimes it can be very hard to find what you are looking for on YouTube. I suggest you check here first!
