✅ Strengthens Understanding
Repetition Leads to Mastery: The more your child practices, the more they internalize the concepts. Math is cumulative, and each lesson builds on the one before it. If your child practices regularly, they are more likely to retain and apply what they’ve learned.
Improves Problem-Solving Skills: Practice encourages critical thinking. By solving different types of problems, students develop strategies that they can use in more complex situations later on.
✅ Increases Confidence
