    here`s a tip.

    Okay, I`ll try to explain this as best I can, but since I teach math in french, I may not be using the proper terms.

    When teaching the order of operations (priority of operations - I hope that is the right term), I use the acronym PADMAS. The kids tend to remember it.

    PA = parenthesis
    D = Division
    M = multiplication
    A = Addition
    S = Subtraction

    works for me! good luck.

    This should have been posted to the Math tricks post.

    First my posts disappear and now they appear in the wrong place.

    What can I say, I`m a magician!
