    Howdy howdy. I just stumbled onto the Math section. I’m not sure how I missed it until last week, but I did. This is just way too cool. thanks, j

    No problem – we’ll be adding a new video each week or two, and we’ve only just started, so you’re right on track. I think the next one to come up is squaring numbers. By December, your kids should be able to multiply 3 digit numbers in their head… and some kids will actually figure out how to do this faster than a calculator. We’ll be going over the math phonetic code as well as how to graphically multiply, so it will be a nicely-rounded tour of math and how to use it in everyday life. It’s fun, isn’t it? :)
