This project isn't about creating a single, monolithic program to cover all aspects of 4th grade math.  Instead it's about a usable curriculum that can be conveyed with the XO laptop.

We also need to consider that every child learns differently.  A child that may not follow one technique will need alternative explanations and exercises before he or she gains mastery.  Activities can and should be created in whatever format can explain the concepts.

All you need to join the group is a desire to help promote math learning.  While most of the programming will be done in the Python language, we will need many people with many talents to complete the curriculum objectives.  The best way to get started is by joining the mailing list and introducing yourself.
