All Kids are Math Kids: From Sorting to Teaching in Math

Mar 5, 2025

11:30am – 12:30pm CT

One of the first lessons we’re taught as little kids is that unlike in reading or writing, it’s OK if we aren’t good at math. Only some kids are meant to be math kids. The rest are meant to muddle along, resenting the subject rather than trying to master it. This conversation will debunk the common math myths that hold us back from understanding and enjoying math and discuss the essential methods to help kids catch up and succeed in math.
