Getting
your child to reason and communicate mathematically has many
benefits:
(1) It is a very good opportunity for your child to
see that Mathematics is more than just doing and doing questions(blindly!).
(2) It is a good opportunity for you to identify misconceptions
that your child might have.
(3) It is a good opportunity for you
to celebrate your child’s strengths. Your child might have got that question wrong simply due to erroneous calculations but he has
the ability to think logically. Shouldn’t we celebrate that?
