Many parents and teachers struggle with math. How many times have you heard, “I hate math,” “Math is not my thing,” or, “I can’t do math”? In our culture, innumeracy is acceptable. This acceptance fails to account for innumeracy’s lifelong consequences, from not understanding statistics used in science and news to difficulty managing finances. The Art of Learning Math is a journey into what makes math meaningful. It takes the reader through the developmental stages of learning math, from infancy to adulthood. It weaves stories, examples, research references, reasons, the arts, and evolutionary understandings to make it relevant and comprehensible to readers. It also provides concrete, actionable tools to help the reader be successful in their endeavor, whether that is to educate groups of children, their own children, or themselves.
