Reseña del libro "Mom! I Learn Subtraction Using Math-Chess-Puzzles Connection Answers: Ho Math Chess Tutor Centre (en Inglés)"
Frankho Teaching Method used at Ho Math Chess Learning CentreThe basic number facts are being taught at Ho Math Chess Learning Centre using a method called Frankho Teaching Method which uses a math, chess, and puzzles integrated worksheets to get children interested in math and also train children's critical thinking skills while they work on foundation math knowledge. Traditionally math worksheets creators seem to always think that basic numbers worksheets are just for one purpose that is to make students practice on computations. So to work on traditional vertical columns of additions, subtractions, multiplications, or divisions would be rote learning. If we continue to use the same way of producing the traditional basic number facts worksheets then this kind of view would be somewhat true because students are trained in just one track of mind. They seem to have troubles in figuring out calculation questions using backwards method.Our teaching method is to fundamentally change the way and structure that the basic number facts worksheets have been presented to primary students so to allow students not only lay their basic foundation but also to get them engaged in more exploratory dialogue with their teachers to discover the strategies used in conducting computations, for example strategies used in addition such as adding 1, 2, 3; adding 10, or doubling etc. These strategies offer systematic, organized, logic thinking to students so they would be encouraged to think more about the relationships between digits and numbers, instead of just relying on memorization to get automatic answers. Students using our basic number facts worksheets would get some benefits of critical thinking skills as if they were working on open-end word problems. This new way of teaching number facts by creating integrated math, chess and puzzles basic number facts worksheets is profoundly different from the traditional worksheets.Why is Ho Math Chess unique?This is one of a series of basic number facts computation workbooks using math-chess-puzzles integrated methodology from preschool to elementary school. These proprietary and differential products are produced by Frank Ho and Amanda Ho. Frank founded Ho Math Chess Learning Centre in 1995 in Vancouver, Canada. He invented and trademarked the Geometry Chess Symbols which are the core technology of producing the math and chess connected workbooks. Our math and chess integrated workbooks (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, problem solving, math contests, Frankho ChessDoku, and Frankho ChessMazes etc.) can be used by day schools or after-school learning centres as a complete set of teaching number facts to supplement school's math teaching. These workbooks have been used and evolved at Ho Math Chess headquarters since 1995. We believe the way our integrated workbooks presented have revolutionized the style of traditional math worksheets.
