Getting parents involved.
Parents are the most valuable advocate children have when they're learning math.
Unfortunately, in traditional educational settings they're largely ignored. The Primes project is aimed at bringing parents in the door. Each Primes experience is intended to build parents' confidence about their own math skills and gain some insight into the innovative teaching methods that schools are beginning to adopt. Primes has 3 main components The Primes project, when it is completed, will consist of nine workshops , a broadcast television program , and a parent action guide , all created with the goal of getting parents involved with their child's math education. Because Primes is funded by the National Science Foundation, the project has a national scope.
