When your child is trying to solve a problem, ask
what he or she is thinking. If your child seems puzzled, ask him or her to tell
you what doesn't make sense. (Talking about their ideas and how they reach solutions
helps children learn to reason mathematically.)
Suggest that your child act out a problem to solve
it. Have your child show how he or she reached a conclusion by drawing pictures
and moving objects as well as by using words.
Treat errors as opportunities to help your child learn
something new.
