Reading Through Math

I know that I have talked about how Madeline is making lots of progress now in reading, and I am very happy with the materials we are using.  I do, however, think that a lot of her motivation to read came from wanting to be able to do her math by herself.  She truly started reading because she did not want me to read the instructions and story problems in her math book to her.  She can read many of the math terms... greater, less than, altogether, how many more, etc... I think it is interesting how they can do things when they are motivated...
