Tips for helping your elementary school child with math homework

by: The GreatSchools Editorial Team | Updated: June 13, 2023

Print article

For many parents, the subject of math arouses feelings of anxiety — perhaps conjuring up memories of timed tests, difficult concepts, or embarrassing mistakes made in class. If you think of math as something that other people are good at or that has no practical use, your attitude may undermine your ability to coach your child. Take the fear and frustration out of math homework by pointing out how numbers are used in your home on a daily basis.

Covering your bases

• If math makes you nervous, try not to pass on your feelings to your child. Share only what is helpful, not harmful.
• You may want to rely on a tutor, older sibling, or peer tutor to help your child with math. Check if his school has a peer-tutoring program.
• Begin each math homework session by asking your child to explain what she’s supposed to do. By her response, you’ll know if she can do the assignment alone or if she needs help.
• If you’re not around when your child completes his homework, let him know that you’ll look it over when you get home. Be sure to follow through. Tell him you’re doing this to help him, not judge him.
• Encourage your child to check in with a classmate if she doesn’t understand or misses an assignment.

Home is where the math is

• Explore math in everyday life — counting out forks to set the table, pouring from a gallon of milk, telling the time when his favorite TV program begins. When kids realize that math is all around them, they begin to relax and see its meaning in their lives.
• Show how math is more than learning addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Math also teaches us to analyze, reason, and plan. These are useful skills that transfer over to reading and writing as well.
• Model analytical and mathematical thinking. Be a problem solver, pose questions, and find solutions. Talk about likenesses and differences, and explain your reasoning.
• Encourage your child to explain his problem-solving process so you can understand his reasoning.
• When driving to school or the store, talk about how numbers help us determine how fast we drive, the distance traveled, the mileage the car gets per gallon of gas, and how long it will take to get home.
• Expose your child to money in her early school years. Have her collect coins in a piggy bank and count them out regularly. If she receives an allowance, have her keep track of the amount or start a bank account.
• Have your child use an analog and a digital watch to learn both methods of telling time.
• Incorporate games involving numbers and math into playtime — from flash cards for learning basic math facts to board games involving money, time, and logic.
• Post a chart of math facts in your child’s room. Some activities and games can help kids memorize math concepts.
• Educational video games and learning software can also reinforce math skills, from arithmetic to algebra. Older students may want to use calendars and spreadsheets to plan out their daily or weekly schedules.
• When helping your child, ask questions to guide him through the process, such as “Where do you begin?” “What do you need to find out?” “Can you show me in a drawing how you got the answer?”
• It’s OK to say that you don’t understand a problem. It gives you an opportunity to review the lesson together to see if you’ve missed an important piece of information.
• Establish a clear understanding with your child’s teacher about the frequency and amount of homework she’ll receive. Modification of homework may increase her motivation and productivity. With her teacher, decide if she needs to do fewer problems, or if she can say the answers out loud and you can write them for her, or if she can check her work with a calculator .

At the top of the first mountain, it’s time to prepare for the next trail!

What's covered in K-5 math?

Well, a lot! In the six years your child spends in elementary school, they will learn a wide variety of mathematical skills and concepts.

In Kindergarten, students will learn how to count to 100 by ones and tens, the basics of addition and subtraction, and be introduced to measurement and shapes.

In first grade, students will learn addition and subtraction strategies that will help them understand more complex equations later on. They will learn how to add up to and within 20.

Second graders build on their addition and subtraction skills, learning to add up to and within 100. They will begin to estimate using their understanding of numbers and quantities.

In third grade, your child moves into more complex mathematics, like multiplication, division, and fractions. It can be a bit of a challenge, so be prepared to help them build confidence.

Once your child is in fourth grade they will learn how to multiply multi-digit numbers, understand place values, work with fractions, factors, and multiples, and analyze data.

Fifth-grade math standards aim to help your child become skilled in using multi-digit numbers, decimals, fractions, and measurement conversions to solve real-world problems.

Solving the mystery of elementary school math

Let’s step back in time for a second. You’re sitting at the kitchen table, staring at your math homework, completely lost on what to do. You ask for help, only for your parent to stare at you wide-eyed, as confused as you are. 

At DoodleMath , we remember that feeling – and we’re here to help. Using our knowledge of K-5 math, we’ve designed the games, guides, and practice problems children need to perfect their math skills — and that parents need to provide meaningful guidance along the way.

Why use DoodleMath? We can think of a few reasons.

1. The research doesn’t lie

Math can be a tedious subject. Many students struggle to pay attention, which can make it difficult to retain information. 

Recent studies have shown that engaging in activities like online math games can help students with retention, especially over the summer holidays. Games and short practice sessions can also help them stay interested when learning new concepts. 

2. Low stakes means better performance when it counts

In the classroom, everything can feel like high stakes. Students are so focused on getting good grades or not falling behind, they often miss out on the excitement of learning. 

With DoodleMath’s games and practice problems, students are allowed to make mistakes – in fact, we encourage it! The low stakes environment, complete with our step-by-step explanations on how to solve problems, will help them build their confidence so they can show off in the classroom where it counts!

3. Practice makes perfect

Whether it’s math, English, science or even physical education, you only get better the more you practice, right? 

The DoodleMath app and DoodleLearning give students a place to hone their math skills while providing guidance on how to grow and improve. Like any sport or skill, mastering math is all about practice, practice, practice.

4. Build memories and connections with your child

Whether they’re in kindergarten or 5th grade, children look up to the adults in their life. When they ask for help, they’re saying, “I trust you. I know you can find the right answer.” 

DoodleMath provides you with the guides and resources you need to provide meaningful assistance. That means that math homework can become less about stress and anxiety and more about working together to find the right answer. 

This leads to invaluable memories that your student will cherish for years to come, making them more likely to come to you when it matters most.

5. Real people designing real solutions

Any robot can spit out math problems. At DoodleLearning, we’re all about human connection. We’ve partnered with Discovery Education to bring you handcrafted guides and practice problems written by educational specialists to ensure you’re getting the best information possible. 

Parents, sign up for a DoodleMath subscription and see your child become a math wizard!

5 Resources for Parents Who Are Stumped by Math Homework

A math teacher's go-to list of websites to help you — and your child — decipher tricky math concepts..

With a new school year underway, there are many exciting events ahead for you and your child. And then, there are some events you might not be looking forward to — like deciphering your child's math homework! As new concepts and strategies are being taught, it may feel like you have no idea how to help your child. While I love math and teaching it, math homework can still be a tricky part of my own family’s nightly routine.

These five websites below are my go-to for resources, worksheets, and games.

Click on the activity or game that will help practice different mathematical concepts. Recommended for Kindergarten through 5 th grade.

3.  Khan Academy :   Khan Academy focuses on interactive videos and practice exercises that support your child’s learning at her own pace. The activities are simple enough for your child to do on her own but also challenging enough to push her to learn more. Recommended for Kindergarten and up.

4.  NCTM Illuminations : This site is an incredible resource for teachers, parents, and students. There are lessons, interactive games, and brainteasers that are all helpful with homework and extra practice at home. Recommended for PreK and up.

5.  K 5 Learning : K 5 Learning is a wonderful parent-support for math help at home. It offers online support and numerous printable worksheets to support you and your child’s learning at home. There are even parent progress reports if you chose to assess your child’s progress. Recommended for Kindergarten through 5 th grade.

Keep these resources on hand when math homework starts to get tricky. They can be a great support to both you and your child!

An Elementary Math Operation Cheat Sheet With Problem Examples For Each Operation

• Atlanta Page
• Categories : Help with math homework
• Tags : Homework help & study guides

This cheat sheet was created to help you remember, and maybe even learn, basic math rules and how to use them. However, this was not created to help you cheat on tests. Use this as a tool to help you remember the rules and be the smartest kid in your elementary class. At the bottom of this article that explains the basic math operations, you can download and print the cheat sheet to practice with.

Basic Operations

Comparing numbers:

• If one number has a leftmost place that is greater than the leftmost place in another number, the first number is greater than the second number.

Example: 675 is greater than 75 because the first number has a leftmost place of hundreds. 600+70+5

• 75 is less than 675 because the leftmost place is only tens. 70+5

Here is how you write this:

675 > 75 : > = greater than < = less than. You always compare starting with the first number as if reading left to right.

Example: Six hundred seventy five is greater than seventy five, or 675>75.

Rounding Numbers:

• To round a number to a given place value, look to the number immediately to the right and round according to these rules.
• If the number is greater than 5, round up. If the number is less than 5, round down.

Example: We want to round 7427 to the nearest tens place (2). So, look at the number immediately to the right (7) and round. The number 7 is greater than 5, so round up (30). The answer is 7430.

Additional Examples: Tens place: 423=420, 25=30. Hundreds place: 565=700, 1270=1000 etc.

Rounding Rule:

• When you write a rounded number, you replace the part not used with zeros.

Examples: Round up 27 to 30. Round down the number 21 to 20.

• The sum is the total of two numbers added together.
• The numbers that are added together are called addends.

Example: The sum of 5 + 3 is 8

5 and 3 are the addends and they equal 8 when added together.

• The order of the addends does not affect the answer as 5 + 3 is the same as 3 + 5. They both equal 8.

Subtraction:

• In subtraction, you subtract the smaller number from the bigger one.

Example: 12 - 4 = 8 This is correct. It is incorrect to try and subtract the bigger number from the smaller one in basic math. For example, the equation 4 -12 could not be performed in basic math because 4 is not big enough to have 12 taken away from it.

• Remember: Always place the larger number first.
• Remember: You cannot change the order of the equation when doing basic subtraction. The answer will be affected even if you come up with one.

There are two basic types of subtraction.

1. If you have two shoes and subtract or “take-away” one, you are left with the difference , one shoe.

Example: 2 - 1 = 1

2. The second type of subtraction is _comparison s_ubtraction.

Example: Mark is 5 feet tall. His sister is 3 feet tall. How much taller is Mark than his sister? The answer would be 2 because 5 - 3 = 2.

Multiplication:

• Multiplication is repeated addition.

Example: 2 x 3 = 6 or 2 + 2 + 2 = 6.

• The first factor (in a horizontal problem) or the top factor (in a vertical problem) is called the multiplicand.
• The other factor is called the multiplier.

10 Multiplier

x4 Multiplicand 10 x 4 = 40 ten is the multiplier and 4 is the multiplicand

• The idea of multiplication is to simplify adding many numbers. You could do a multiplication problem using addition, but that would take a long time because would you to have to add up many more numbers.

Example: 4 x 3 = 12 whereas in addition, it would look like this… 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12

• Division is often referred to as backwards multiplication. If you take the number 7 and multiply it by 7, the answer is 49. Now you can divide this equation as well.
• Take the number 49 (or the dividend) and divide it by 7(divisor). Your answer will be 7(quotient) or 49 / 7 = 7 (The symbol “/” is the sign for division on the keyboard).
• An easy way to remember your division is to ask yourself this question: 7 will go into 49 how many times? Next, think of a multiple of 7 that is closest to 49 - 7 x 7 = 49, so there is your answer.

Beyond the Basics

Adding Vertical Numbers:

• What do you do when you have three addends like this? Treat this like two separate problems.

+2 -—-2 + 7 = 9

• First, add 3 + 4 together. The answer is 7 (3 + 4 = 7). Next, add the remaining number and the answer to adding the first two together (7 + 2 or 2 + 7 = 9). The answer to the entire problem is 9.

Adding Larger Numbers:

• Adding bigger numbers together requires starting at the right and moving left. You carry over any numbers over 9 to the next set of numbers to the left until the number equation is completed.

-———–( 1,1 ) (these are the carry over numbers)

Example: 456

Step 1: Add 6 + 6, which equals 12. Place the 2 in the ones column and carry over the 1.

Step 2: Move to the left one place and add 5 + 5, which equals 10. Now add the extra 1 on top (10 + 1 = 11).

Place a 1 under the tens place and carry over the other 1 again but this time over the hundreds place.

Step 3: Finally, add the hundreds column together and remember to add the carried over 1 again ( 4 + 2 = 6; 6 + 1 = 7).

The answer to this problem is easily figured out when you take it step by step: 456 + 256 = 712.

Subtraction With Larger Numbers:

• Sometimes the top digit is smaller than the bottom digit when you begin subtracting larger numbers. In this case, you will borrow from the next number to the left that is not zero.

Here is the breakdown of the problem; because 7 is smaller than 8, we need to borrow from the next place value (tens). Borrow 1 from the tens place making the 5 into a 4 and give it to the ones place making the 7 into a 17. Subtract: 17 - 8 = 9 and 4 - 2 = 2. Going right to left, the answer is 29.

A free, printable version is available to you (just click on the link in the next section). Print it out and keep it with you, and also feel free to bookmark this page for future reference.

• When multiplying bigger numbers, don’t forget the process because it is different than addition or subtraction.

You still work from right to left.

Renaming in multiplication is the same as in addition.

• Remember to multiply with the farthest right number on the bottom first. Then you multiply it with each number in the number above it, all the way across until you have completed the process.

Multiply the 3 x 2 = 6 first. Next, multiply the 3 x 3 = 9. Next multiply the 3 x 4 =12. You keep placing the answer under the problem as you get them figured out from right to left. If there is a carry over number, you add it after multiplying. For instance, if 4 x 3 was in the middle of the problem, you would carry over the 1. When you multiplied the next numbers together, you would add the 1 to the answer.

It is important to write out your carryovers as you may forget them if you don’t.

Multiplying Two Large Numbers Together:

• Keep in mind that this is not hard if you just follow the rules you have learned.

Remember to follow the rules above for starting out your multiplication problem.

• When you have two large numbers, remember to move over one space when you get to the next bottom number or multiplier.

-– (1)-carryover number

--1403 Answer

• Just remember your rules and you will always be ready to use even the biggest numbers in math.
• If the division problem is not a fact or a near fact, it can be solved by a method known as long division.
• Remainders are carried over by either a period or point (.) or you place an r and then the number remaining.

14 divided by 4 would be 3 with a remainder of 2 because 4 x 3 =12 and 14 -12 = 2.

140 divided by 40 would be 3 with a remainder of 20 because, 40 x 3 =120 and 140 -120 = 20.

• To see this problem on paper using long division, just do as you have learned in school already and follow these instructions to see it happen.

Elementary Math: Solving Logic Problems

•  / 

Solving problems using logic is a skill that students will hone throughout elementary school and beyond. While we typically think of 'logic problems' as word problems, all math problems require us to use abstract logic to reach a solution. Read on for a list of problem-solving strategies that can help you with logic problems!

How to Solve Logic Problems

Assess the problem.

The first step in solving a problem is identifying the question and the tools you've been given to answer it. Read the problem carefully, highlighting any information that may be helpful in solving the problem. Cross out any unnecessary information. If there are unfamiliar vocabulary words in the problem, look them up in the dictionary or ask your teacher to explain them.

It can also be helpful to draw a diagram or equation to represent the problem at this point. For example, if the problem describes a shape, you might draw a picture of it. You can also use symbols like number lines and tally marks to help visualize problems.

Develop a Strategy

Now that you've gathered your tools, the next step is to figure out how you're going to use them. This is the point where you decide what specific operations you need to perform to get your answer. You may also mentally estimate what answer you expect to get, or at least what format you expect that answer to have.

If the problem you're solving is multiple choice, you can compare this projection to the answers provided. If the type of answer you're expecting to get doesn't match any of them, you'll need to re-read the question and rethink your strategy. For instance, if you're expecting to get a whole number answer, but the multiple-choice options are all fractions, you might be misunderstanding the question.

Execute Your Plan

Once you've decided on a strategy, try it out and then double-check your calculations. Next, re-read the problem to check that you've answered what was asked. Be sure to include the correct units with your answer.

Check Your Answer

If your teacher permits it, compare your answer to the answers that some of your friends got. If you have a different answer, this doesn't necessarily mean you're wrong, but you should compare your problem-solving strategy and calculations to your friends' so that you can find out why your answers are different.

If you're working alone, ask a parent or teacher to check your work. If you've made a mistake, keep working at the problem until you figure out the correct solution. You might even consider moving on to other problems and then returning to the one you're stuck on later. This can give your brain a chance to rest and generate new ideas.

Learning with the Math Scholars

Education doctoral student brings her students with learning differences to usc for a day of fun with mathematics.

They call themselves the Math Scholars — a group of eight sixth-grade students at Currey Ingram Academy near Nashville, Tennessee.  

  It’s a name that neither the students nor their parents could have imagined a couple of years ago. These 11- and 12-year-olds with learning differences had long struggled with mathematics, having trouble staying on task and performing basic math skills.  

That changed in Dawn Pilotti’s classroom. Pilotti, a long-time mathematics teacher and an online doctoral student in USC’s College of Education, uses tools to make mathematics “more real” to the students. And with an assist from her doctoral advisor, USC associate professor Kristin Harbour, the students now count mathematics among their favorite subjects.   

Pilotti has been teaching mathematics and special education for 26 years — the past 10 at Currey Ingram Academy, a research-based, model school for students with learning differences. This is her second year teaching the group of students now known as the Math Scholars.  

  “ This group of students was really struggling in math when they came into fifth grade,” Pilotti says. “We were working on some kindergarten-level skills last year in fifth grade. They were years behind in where they needed to be.”  

  Pilotti teaches mathematics by focusing on real world problems and using a lot of manipulatives to help students understand concepts. It makes mathematics a visual subject for the students at the school, 70 percent of whom have language-based learning disabilities. The Math Scholars now are performing nearly on grade level in mathematics.  

And in April, they brought their stories — and their math skills — to a USC classroom.  

The seeds for the trip started with a story on the College of Education’s website about Pilotti’s experience in USC’s online doctoral program concentrated in the STEM field. The story mentioned she was drawn to the program partly because of the chance to work with Harbour, whose expertise is in the intersection of mathematics education, special education and professional development. The story, which included pictures of Pilotti’s students in her Tennessee classroom, intrigued the students, who were thrilled to see themselves on a university’s website. And they had a lot of questions about Harbour.  

Harbour and Pilotti talked frequently about her mathematics students, discussing how Pilotti could take what she was learning in her USC doctoral program and apply it in a practical way with students and teachers at Currey Ingram. Soon, Harbour was meeting the Math Scholars on their computer screen and learning more about what they were doing in class.   

“Dawn is an exceptional teacher for them, and she wanted them to know that other people were in their corner and that I was one of them,” Harbour says. “I think that gave them the idea that this person in South Carolina cared about their math understanding and was working with their teacher to help make them confident mathematicians. And they really felt empowered by that. They were reaching beyond just their classroom.”  

Soon, Harbour was learning more about their stories.  

“For me, it's been this magnificent experience to see how I can still build relationships with kids at a distance,” Harbour says. “And seeing how that can influence them has been a really eye-opening experience.”  

But another surprise came for the students. Their parents, teachers and the College of Education arranged for some in-person face time with Harbour. In April, they made the nearly seven-hour road trip from Nashville to Columbia, where they were welcomed to the USC campus and spent the day solving mathematics problems, collecting data on a scavenger hunt, showing their work to their parents and sharing their story with the USC community.  

“I love that we got to do the same kinds of math that we do at school in Nashville in South Carolina, and our amazing math teacher Ms. Pilotti and Dr. Harbour were both there together doing it with us,” says Math Scholar Elle Steele.

For the parents, it was a chance to celebrate their children’s accomplishments. After researching 25 schools for children with learning differences, Kenda and Bob Lovecchio moved from Austin, Texas, to Nashville last year so their son Kai could attend C urrey Ingram Academy. Pilotti was his first teacher.  

“Math was his worst subject,” Bob Lovecchio says. “ELA (English Language Arts) was his favorite. It has switched to math being his favorite. He’s the most confident in math. He does his homework independently.”  

It’s a similar story for Kimberly and David Silvus, whose 12-year-old son Grant is a student in Pilotti’s class.  

“Math is the only subject he comes home and talks to me about,” says Kimberly Silvus. “He uses math homework as an excuse to not go to bed on time.”  

Her husband, David, says, “He’s doing math we were not sure he’d be capable of — multiplication, fractions, division. All of it.”  

Pilotti gives plenty of credit to her students, who she says are supportive of each other and work really well together. And Harbour has enjoyed the front-row seat to see the remarkable strides the students have made.  

“When Dawn first started working with them, they were so petrified of math because they felt beaten down, they had just not had successes in math at that point,” Harbour says. “And just the miraculous turnaround in their learning and their confidence is truly the essence of this beautiful story.”  

Ryan O’Grady said his son Elliott has thrived at the Nashville school and especially in Pilotti’s math class, a subject that was difficult for him in the past. The day at USC helped reinforce the idea that college is attainable for his son.  

“To come here (to USC) and see that there are people who care, that there are professors here who are interested in the next generation,” O’Grady says. “It makes it possible to dream about what’s possible.”
