Founder's "Why"
Countless number of students are being "socially promoted" without learning math basics, year after year, beginning when they're in early elementary grades, and this is a national security threat!
More often than not, school administration and or parents simply don't do what's necessary for the child- which is to intervene early when the math skills are weak. Fast forward to post-secondary, society as a whole pays for this mishap in more ways than one. While learning gaps for many students continue to widen year after year, grade level after grade level, there's only one way to remedy such an atrocity. The REMEDY for students' lack of basic math skills: Making Math Count equips parents to be hands-on along with the student's classroom teacher for their elementary-aged child. Our signature elementary grade-level based "Math bOX" and complimentary YouTube videos equip parents to be hands-on. The thoughtfully-crafted sturdy, laminated templates and worksheets within the "Math bOX" binder, when used consistently and correctly, are sure to provide positive results. Again, there are complimentary YouTube videos (see link above) to serve as guidance for parents, when using the grade-level based "Math bOX." Go figure, the parents learn too! A FREE pencil and paper, in-person assessment to determine any math learning-gaps is also offered (see link at top); professional evaluation is made available to parents to make them aware of their child's math knowledge. My Sincere THANK YOU! Again, I thank you in advance for your purchase or sponsorship of the "Math bOX" or other items. I thank you in advance for your assistance, as you may assist in one or more ways: sponsor, donate, volunteer, fundraise, etc. You may contact me directly via email: yolanda.taylor@makingmathcount.org or simply call: (313) 808-1302 if you need to contact me.
