  2. Thank you, a thousand times thank you. Our youngest is starting algebra this year and we were warned by his teacher "don't try helping them at home, you'll be wrong".

  3. A really great resource is KhanAcademy.com It's full of math stuff.

    I have worked as a tutor before and my advice to parents tutoring their kids is to ask 'why?' and make your kid justify her answer.

    "What's the answer?"
    "b."
    "Are you sure?"
    "uh..."
    "Why b?"
    "Kid explains algebra in terms of Euclid's 5 axioms."

    You don't even need to understand what they're doing. In the best case they end up teaching you (but it's probably best not to let on that you don't know what you're doing).
