Math Boy  

Posted by: Denise

I am such a proud, proud momma!  My Drew is a math natural.  He almost can't help it; it's just the way he thinks.  Last week, he asked his 1st grade teacher what he would need to do in order to do "times" problems.  She sent him home with three math worksheets to challenge him and improve his skills.  He absolutely knows how to do them.  My long-ago degree is in math and I have a certain method for approaching math problems and what is so interesting to me is that Drew's approach to his problems is different than mine.  His thinking and quickness suggests a mindset of "it is just so" vs. my mindset of "look at the problem and figure out what needs to be done about it".  He's amazing.
