How would you go about in-home tutoring your average IQ child on math?

Go all in on algebraic structures and combinatorics t.b.h.

It's the kind of shit that's adapted to a child's brain. Like puzzles.
And it sure will teach them more about thinking than solving fucking triple integrals would.

Just buy some workbooks for them.

Play mathematical games with them from a young age. Teach problem solving and puzzles in a fun way. Introduce them to strategy games like chess and go. Around 5 years old begin a formal mathematical education. Focus more on intuitive understanding rather than calculation (although some calculation skill is necessary). Make sure to get them to read for the verbal reasoning gains and excercise for the physical gains.

I've thought about this a fair bit. I want to raise a smart kid.

You should read Terry Tao's articles about that.

got a better alternative ? :^)

I will never understand why breeders play the genetic lottery.

>got a better alternative ? :^)

yes, studying

>>8322997

Was more asking how would give the child a solid foundation, so he wouldn't struggle in the future

Just tell your kid to get gud

>>8322991
Hard study with good technique

How's studying a better alternative to measure intelligence?

>>8323023
Oh, you misinterpreted my original post.
IQ measures intelligence adequately. Given an "average IQ child" however, you can still teach them to be intelligent if they are young and hardworking.

>>8322969
Not to brag, but I've been doing linear algebra, vector/multivariable calc, odes since high school. Btw I'm an EE/CS student. UC Berkley.

what sort of sex-ed cirriculum do home schoolers do? xD

>>8323152
i come to their houses and give them private tutor sessions

>>8323152
Sex-ed isn't really necessary. I didn't have sex-ed... actually if you're talking about learning about reproduction, contraception and all that, it was in my Grade 7 Biology curriculum so it wouldn't matter if I was home-schooled or not.

It's all in the textbook famallama.

kids are so cruel

>>8323152
sex-ed isn't really necessary, y'know

it really just boils down to "the talk"

>>8322914

Agreed

>>8322906
I wouldn't have an average IQ child ;^).

Nonetheless, children typically don't respond well to structure (nor should they). They also aren't yet in a place where they understand the utility of a given thing, nor do they legitimately understand why they might need it in the future (even if you explain to them in depth to the point where you've made them think they do).

Just show them a few things from time to time. Connect it to something they're already working on and branch out from there. The important part is the familiar starting point. You can't start them out in the unfamiliar because it'll just float in a void for them, and they'll either forget or it'll end up so compartmentalized it's as useless as rote memorization.

Harder question than it seems, and harder than my answer acknowledges. I'm struggling with how to not rob a child of the "magic" of not knowing or caring. Stuff like bridge points to alternate dimensions / universes, creatures living in the forest, gnomes living in trees, etc. The maybe and the wondering.

Posing questions in intuitive form, guiding the child through intuitive solutions to those questions, then slowly introducing notation.

>>8324747
I don't think you need to rob them of the wondering necessarily. You just try to direct it towards things that might actually happen/have scientific basis, like an inter-planetary civilization in our lifetime, VR, cryonics/radical life extension, multiple universes, that sort of thing. Not saying it's easy, but I think that could be a better stand-in.

Opinion discarded. Children love solving puzzles.

That wasn't remotely implied.

>>8324875
>You just try to direct it towards
That's the core problem, I don't know if I should direct it. I also don't know what thoughts should be directly afforded, and which shouldn't. There are significant problems with giving the ability to get too far ahead without really laying out the underpinnings. It biases against novel or self derived thought and can cause a tendency to skip the basics.

I'm not sure about communicating the notion of particles and scale , even though it's readily demonstrated by continuing to cut an object in half until you can't, and highlighting then any arbitrarily delineated "object" if viewed as a whole, can also be viewed as made up of parts which themselves are wholes, etc.

I guess the concern is that my father knew a lot, thought a lot, and had realized a lot. Read a lot of 50's era sci-fi as well. But he never really elaborated any kind of logical framework directly or in full, it just came through implicitly.

The topic is about how to avoid making you.

No.
