Spending too much time going over and over the same stuff won't help and will just overwhelm you. 3. Calm those fears by treating yourself with calmness. Try to have a set routine - knowing that you ALWAYS eat oatmeal on test days might just help. Go to bed on time. In the morning, eat breakfast, put on your lucky sweater (really! it works!), and pack yourself a treat for lunch. Back to top Test... Brain... Freeze... Panic

There's lots you can do to encourage your children's interest in these areas, and you don't have to be a statistician or microbiologist to do it! In fact, it's better if you don't give them knowledge by telling them answers; instead, nurture their love for these subjects by watching and learning right along with them.

26. Advice From The Math Orientation Director
    advice From The math Orientation Director. Greetings from the mathOrientation Committee! It is the beginning of Orientation Week  
    http://www.mathnews.uwaterloo.ca/Issues/mn8400/froshori.php
    
    Extractions: grid ... NEWSquiz Greetings from the Math Orientation Committee! It is the beginning of Orientation Week 2000, and you are new Frosh wondering what is in store for you; not only throughout the week, but also throughout the next several years. Below are a few pieces of advice about what's ahead. Let's start with advice about Frosh Week. First of all: HAVE FUN! Enjoy the week. You're about to start what is most likely the biggest undertaking in your life so far: becoming a university student. It'll be busy, so relax! Take in your new surroundings, and again, have fun. The second (and final) thing is to make friends. These are the people you will be seeing in the coming years, and they will be of invaluable help to you. Be it with your studies, or personal issues, people to talk to are extremely important if you expect to survive here. Also, as you are just starting here, you probably have a few questions: Exactly how does co-op work? How do classes work? Do we have homework? Where the hell can I get food around here? What's Village like? Etc... You need an incredible resource to answer these questions. Well, that resource is at your mere call: Frosh Leaders. Your leaders are upper-year students who have been through it all (well... most of them anyway). Ask them. You'll be truly amazed at what they know, and if your leaders don't know, they'll find someone who does. It's been said many times before, but it can never be said enough: Information is power. So don't be afraid to ask questions.

I spent 12 years of my life trying to understand and study it and after all this time I see that I'm not even able to answer to the 1st question in the end exams' test part. And it's just A, B or C. Now I have 6 months to get ready for the exams at the end of my last semester. What should I do, 'cos I don't understand anything from the pile of books I have anyway? Santa Santa, it's obvious what your problem is. Your teacher doesn't understand mathematics either. Maths is all about numbers, but the question on the exam has A B C answers. That's just nuts. My advice is stick at it, and when you fail, sue the pants off your school for not teaching you right.

    Extractions: Back to: Times Tables when? From: Carol (3/98) At what age do kids learn their times tables these days? Or maybe I should ask, at what age should they know them? I know some kids in 5th and 6th grade who have been taught to count on their fingers, and that's where they're still at. I'm shocked, but maybe for no good reason? From: Dianna (3/98) Re: Times tables - my son is in the 3rd grade at LeConte Elementary here in Berkeley and he is learning multiplication, although they do not seem to be learning the times tables per se. I distinctly remember learning them myself in the 4th grade. I'm toying with the idea of teaching him the times tables this summer, as a fun thing to do in the car. Chanting the times tables is almost the same as chanting a poem, to me. From: Susan (3/98) At school my daughter learned the times tables (through ten) in third grade. At the beginning of fourth grade they reviewed the times tables and extended them through 12. (It's possible they began the process during second grade, but I don't remember.) From: Barbara (3/98) Our kids were drilled in facts (+,-,x, division) in 4th grade. They had 1 page sheets of each type which they kept testing themselves on to get their time down (and kept graphs of their progress.)

32. UCB Parents Advice About School: Skipping 7th Grade Math & Taking Algebra
    This page is brought to you by UC Berkeley Parents Network Back to advice aboutSchool Preschool See also advice about math at Berkeley High School  
    http://parents.berkeley.edu/advice/school/skipping7math.html
    
    Extractions: See also: Advice about Math at Berkeley High School May 2001 My daughter is doing very well in 6th grade math and would like to move on to algebra rather than taking 7th grade math next year. Have other parents had this experience? How did it work out? I'm not sure I understand your question. But if your child is being offered honors algebra as opposed to regular algebra, I'd look at it closely. Secondhand observation of one friend of my child's showed that it was very hard. If it's a choice between pre-algebra and algebra, and your child's teacher feels comfortable with that, that course seemed appropriate for my child who had to work hard but not too hard. Also, drop a line to Neil Smith and ask him for a name of a 7th grade math teacher to talk to. He's very responsive. My student has Ms. Mukerjee (sp?) who is very enthusiastic. You might want to talk to her. I am a ninth grader at Berkeley High. I skipped up to Algebra in seventh grade. It was difficult to be in a class where I was the youngest, but once I was used to it, I did OK in the class, although sometimes it was a struggle. I would recommend Algebra if your child is good at picking up new concepts very quickly and doesn't have social issues about being in a class with all eighth graders.

    Extractions: Tools for Creating the Life YOU Want! Math that Really Matters by Marc Eisenson Say you want to buy a brand new $18,000 car, and you've done battle to "win" a 10% price reduction, which would bring it down to $16,200. You decide it pays to pocket a $1,000 rebate from the manufacturer. So that $18,000 buggy would cost you $15,200. Right? Wrong! Let's assume you finance 90% ($13,680) at 7.5% for 3 years. That'll add $1,639 in interest to the $15,200, for a total cost of $16,839. Right? Wrong! Even if you disregard your new car's sales tax, registration, and insurance (which will add up to way more than pocket change) there's still income tax to factor in. If you're in the 28% tax bracket, you'd need to gross over $23,000 to pay for this horseless carriage. That's over 50% higher than the $15,200 rock bottom price you negotiated, and the equivalent of almost 9 months of hard labor for someone earning $30,000 a year. And that's without adding in the cost of state and local taxes, to say nothing of Social Security. Do you really want to spend the better part of a year working, not for food, clothing, or shelter, but just to pay for the privilege of parking that car in your driveway?
