Well, I picked up my daughter today, and she was all excited about learning how to make a cake in her cooking class.
I said, "If only you were as pumped about learning multiplication"
She replied, "If math was edible, maybe I would."
Cute, huh?

What she needs is for her
What she needs is for her teacher is to tie math in with cooking.
Yes, one needs math to bake!
Yes, one needs math to bake! Yoi've got unit conversions, ratios, cooking times, etc. It's a great opportunity to demonstrate the use of math.

blessed
When I was in school I got blessed with a teacher that showed me some tricks that made math fun. I still remember a few of them even after all these years.
anything times 11 is the same number twice. Anything times 10 is the same number plus a zero.
a number times 9 is a number below and another number that equals nine when added. Ie 9 x3 = 27 which is the number under 3 2 plus 7 equals nine.
any number times 5 is either a number with 5 in it or a 10.
Like I said they made math fun and it went from really hard to easy just like that. Obviously there is limits to the tricks but it sure helped.
