Math Flowers: Two-lips and Three-lips

written by

at August 10, 2009

I got this email from a happy Math-U-See fan and thought I would share it with you,

During Math today, my 9 year old made an Orange Two-lip, and Pink Three-lip we had to share! She calculated the number they represent too!

Here is a picture of my 5 year old son making his castle. He has taught himself some addition facts and recognition of two digit numbers just playing with the blocks and watching the DVDs with his sisters!

We are all excited about learning math with Math-U-See and tell everyone we know about it! Thanks so much!

Sincerely,

A very happy Math-U-See fan!

I think we’re seeing the beginnings of a new fashion trend, whats next? Perhaps a new line of Math-U-See fragrances (hey everyone else is doing it).

Tired of hanging out with your kids all day? Celebrate the love (of math) with our new Chocol-8 fragrance, available only from Math-U-See.

Living in a Block Town

I received this email today from Kim,

Our kids Hannah (8) and Jacob (10) had lots of fun building a town with the Math U See blocks. They could tell me the area, the length of the roads and dimensions of their house. They completed their “town” with Lego men and BIG RIG vehicles. What a great way to reinforce the math concepts they are learning.
