Mathnasium of Spokane South: Building Strong Math Habits for the School Year

Q1: What is one simple habit that can help students stay on track with math during the school year?

A1: One simple habit that can help students stay on track is practicing consistency. Regularly practicing skills improves long-term retention and helps students grow more comfortable and confident with the skills they're currently working on.

Q2: What should students do when they come across a math problem they don’t understand?

A2: If you encounter a problem you don't understand, don't throw in the towel right away! Slow down, take another look at the problem, and identify the pieces you already know how to do. Give it your best shot. The worst that can happen is you need to try again!

Q3: How can building strong math skills early in the school year help students later on?

A3: Building on the foundations of math is integral for success! When we understand the basics, we are much better equipped to understand new topics that come our way. If you've got a strong foundation, it is much easier to build complex skills.
