The Math Journal
Ferg N' Us Services
The Math Journal is an easy way keep your child’s math work together. With 120 pages, it has a sturdy Wire-o-Binding and a plastic front cover.
Each page is a graph grid printed on good quality graph paper. Printed on front and back, it has 1/4" squares. The gridlines are light gray.
How many times does your child miss a problem because the numbers are misaligned? To avoid this problem, use graph paper when the child
reaches the age when problems are copied and worked on separate paper. Then it is easier for children to keep the numbers lined up in their corresponding row and column.
It also helps them to learn to write numbers in a uniform size.
Drawing fractions is also easier with a graph paper notebook like this. |
