Most people hate dealing with math problems. It was like an omen for them if heard the word ‘math.’ Others cannot even paint their faces if solving the math problems inside the classroom. In some instances, it takes time to solve particular problems on the blackboard or given as homework. On the other hand, the Math teachers also joined with such sentiments. ‘Why?’ The Math teachers are finding ways to deliver their lessons effectively and let their students understand as much as possible. I had read that some researchers in San Francisco, California, created a new teaching methodology for Math’s fractions through music. It was introduced in third-graders by incorporating the usage of clapping, drumming and chanting. The result was remarkable because the pupils got 50% higher in the test as compared to the regular math class. Do you like Math subject? Did you ever feel frustrations in having Math subjects before?

@Shavkat What do you do with it? I love computing the depth of a vertical mine shaft based on how log it takes a rock to hit the bottom.

I love math and have no trouble getting young kids to love math. I just integrate into my activities and discussions with them and then move on.

@TheHorse You are lucky, my friend. However, there are some kiddies who are into Math. In my family, all of us love the subject.

I have always liked mathematics because it was the easiest subject. Being a man made science it is the only pure science.

I do agree with you. During my high school days. I hate memorizing things up with the other subjects.

I like it but I dln't love it.I think it's just a negative attittude.The art of problem solving;you have to think deeper , if you don't get the answer you scratch you head 100 times.
