Category Description for Math Lessons for a Living Education
Living education is the real-life application of the things you learn. When this approach is applied to math, it is not taught in a vacuum. Instead, mathematical concepts are integrated into everyday situations. In the spirit of Charlotte Mason’s living book philosophy, Math Lessons for a Living Education teaches math through stories, copywork, narration, and hands-on learning. Throughout the lessons, students will follow the lives of two twins, Charlie and Charlotte, and their family.
Math Lessons for a Living Education is designed as a 36-week or 180-day course with 5 days of instruction per week. However, it can easily be adapted to fit other types of homeschool schedules. Books feature a suggested daily schedule at the beginning with a grid
for completion and grading built in. The books are titled as
“levels,” with these levels are based loosely on grade. Even if you haven’t used the
earlier levels of this series, you can jump in at an appropriate skill
level/topical area for your child. All books are consumable and non-reproducible. Worksheet solutions and all answers are included.
There are no fancy manipulatives for this series - colorful
paper versions are printed in the back of each book, and you'll use household
or other commonly-found items. In Books 2 and 3, you will also need items like
a 12" ruler, indoor/outdoor thermometer, coins for money lessons, and $1
bills.
Available for Levels 1-5, Practice Makes Perfect books offer optional supplemental activity pages, quizzes, and additional manipulatives to help students develop greater mastery of conv. All answers are included. Sold separately, optional Flashcards are available for addition/subtraction and multiplication/division facts. We also offer the optional K-6 Teaching Companion that includes level-by-level goals, scope & sequence, teaching & review tips, resources, games, recipes, and readiness tests with solutions.
