Danica McKellar: Math Doesn't Suck

Danica McKellar's first math book flies off the shelves and helps middle-school girls become BFFs with math.
Danica McKellar became a child star on the iconic television series, "The Wonder Years." Her famous kiss with onscreen paramour Kevin Arnold showed once and for all what it looks like "when a man loves a woman." Danica continues to act in movies and TV, but now devotes more of her time to writing math textbooks targeted at teenage girls. Her goal? To make math fun. And to help girls feel confident about doing math.

Although I won't watch 'The Wonder Years' anymore- it's only because I've probably seen all of the episodes... 10 times over. I love you, Dannica. I love Winnie, too- still.

Same thing. I could barely cope with 2+2 until the beginning of the 3rd form (ages 13-14) when my new maths teacher started drawing little curves and tiny straight lines on the blackboard. That was the beginning of calculus, and click! suddenly everything started making sense. We all deserve at least one maths teacher who's competent/genius.

I loved math just it was very interesting

[@Mathmantp1]

Middle school... definitely an important junction in Math. Way to pinpoint it! And yeah, Math is way better with imaginative ways to visualize it. Try describing factoring with a vacuum cleaner... oh yeah, then Math does suck.

[@mohanprakash3832]
