I am entirely new to the actual practice of homeschooling, though I have been aware of it for many years. I recently got engaged to an incredible woman who has two daughters (10, 11) who are not exactly keen on learning basic mathematics.
One actively avoids it, even telling me that when she asks a question she immediately lets her mind wander so she does not have to hear the answer.
So…. suggestions for getting them self motivated to learn at least the basics of mathematics?
