Why get the bundle
- Cards, games and a poster show the same rule from different angles, which helps it stay when the problems get longer.
The problem
8 + 4 x 4 is 24, not 48
Reading left to right is the habit children bring to every page. With mixed operations it leads to the wrong answer.
Adding first
In 8 + 4 x 4, adding first gives 12 x 4 = 48. Multiplying 4 x 4 first gives 16, and 8 + 16 = 24.
Left to right feels right
Children read a sentence from left to right, so they solve it that way. The rule is different for math.
Subtraction after multiplication
In 3 x 2 - 5, multiply first to get 6, then subtract 5. Children who go left to right may try 2 - 5.
Each item has a wrong choice that comes from going left to right, so the slip shows. A poster keeps the order in view.

Solve by doing multiplication first
Multiply, then add or subtract.
- 4 × 4 = 16, then 8 + 16 = 24
- 6 × 4 = 24, then 2 + 24 = 26
- 3 × 2 = 6, then 6 − 5 = 1
- 5 × 2 = 10, then 10 − 5 = 5
- 7 × 4 = 28, then 4 + 28 = 32
- 8 × 6 = 48, then 48 − 9 = 39
- 7 × 9 = 63, then 63 − 9 = 54
