Children are born with a natural love of learning - the roots for success. How to Create Math Experts with Base Ten Blocks is designed to assist adults as they simultaneously maintain children's natural love of learning and accelerate their knowledge. The desire for increased knowledge must never wither away!
When students have completed the thought-provoking assignments in the Math Expert series of books, they will have more knowledge of mathematics than the vast majority of elementary age students. In fact, they will have some knowledge that even mathematics teachers were not taught.
"Since they had no roots, they withered away." Matthew 13:6
