Can kids actually enjoy learning math? In this episode of Diary of a Dreamer, Tasha Eizinger sits down with Kathleen Cotter Clayton, curriculum developer for RightStart Mathematics, to explore a better way to teach math. Instead of worksheets and memorization, Kathleen shares how games, visual tools, and hands-on learning help kids truly understand math concepts. If your child struggles with math (or says they hate it) this conversation will change how you think about teaching numbers.

You'll learn:

• Why memorizing math facts often fails kids


• How understanding concepts builds real confidence


• Simple math games you can play with a deck of cards


• Why fractions are easier than most people think


• How parents can turn everyday moments into learning opportunities

Kathleen also explains how the RightStart Mathematics program helps children build strong number sense through visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning. Whether you're a parent, teacher, homeschool family, or simply someone who wants kids to enjoy learning, this episode will inspire you to rethink math education.
