[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 548962"] WO, I second Hound. In our district, calculators aren't allowed until after 6th grade. By then, we've taught all the math concepts and the calculators are simply for speed and "to keep up with the technology age". We teach long division and stacking the numbers to add & subtract even when they are written on the page vertically (rewrite them ourselves). Some of the teachers are willing to teach the same concepts in various ways and allow the kids to do it whatever way works for them....as long as they show their work. There are a few that will maark the problem wrong because the kid didn't do it the "right" way. THAT is the part that frustrated difficult child 1 AND me. Who the heck cares as long as they can do it and get the right answer!! [/QUOTE]
