Thanks Kristin and everyone for the information. We still haven't really made much headway with the Math. On the one hand -I can see an extended need for maniuplatives and addition and subtraction. Then there just doesn't seem to be an easy way to start multiplication and division with simply dividing beans or something in to groups. This week, I tired Bath animals - and DS6 did great - but the problem is - he is now old enough to notice when I am sneaking math into fun time and getting resistant!
Enchanted learning.com seems to have some good pages for continuing to back up fraction work ...does anyone have any more free links with work pages on fractions?
I guess I just need to accept that he may be reading chapter books designed for age 12 - but he may be typically 6 years old when it comes to Math concepts.
