The Math Lessons for a Living Education series helps take math from the pages of a book and place it in the context of real-life situations so that kids can see the practical application of these concepts. Rather than focusing on simple memorization, students are encouraged to discover important connections as they work out solutions, develop a better understanding, and strengthen their skills.
Math Level 4:
- Begins and ends the course with important reviews of basic and complex concepts
- Contains a helpful solutions manual and easy-to-use manipulatives in the back of the book
- Includes a course calendar that helps organize daily lessons, focused on multiplication that uses carrying of values, steps for division and how to check it, mixed numbers, equivalent fractions, decimals, percentages, basic geometry, charts and graphs, averaging, and much more!
A summer spent in Peru has meant a lot of changes for the growing family of twins Charlie and Charlotte. It’s time to enjoy a family trip and see new sights while they learn how math continues to play an important and unexpected role in their daily adventures!
The meaning of family and other qualities are developed in the midst of their discoveries, while students are encouraged to apply critical thinking and interact with the world around them. The content can be easily adapted for any education program, and uses a combination of stories, narration, copywork, and projects that will appeal to active learners.
