Publisher's Description of LIFEPAC Math Grade 6 Complete Boxed Set
Can you relate to the frustration that many homeschool parents feel when trying to choose a math curriculum? At Alpha Omega Publications, we've got a solution that you're going to love! The LIFEPAC 6th Grade Math Set was designed with you in mind! Building on a strong foundation is the key to long-term achievement in math, and LIFEPAC Math programs use mastery-based learning along with spiraling review to encourage student success. In this homeschool math program, students focus on mastery of a single skill, and then move on to learn new skills. This approach builds a strong foundation in elementary math skills which paves the way for ever-increasing levels of proficiency. In ten engaging worktexts, the LIFEPAC 6th Grade Math Set presents instruction in the following advanced skill areas: fractions and decimals, finding common denominators, multiplying and dividing mixed numbers, dividing decimals, metric measures, lowest common multiple and greatest common factor, integers, ration, proportion, probability, graphing, calculators, and much more.
But there's so much more! Because we know how stressful teaching math can be, we have gone to great lengths to make sure that your child—and you—will love your LIFEPAC Math experience! Student worktexts in this Alpha Omega curriculum include daily math instruction and review as well as ample opportunity for assessment of proficiency. In order to encourage individualized instruction, we have included a teacher's guide designed to help you guide your student's learning according to his specific interests and needs. The teacher's guide includes detailed teaching notes, a complete answer key with solutions, and lots of ideas for additional activities designed to reinforce important math concepts.
Category Description for Alpha Omega LIFEPAC Mathematics
Alpha Omega LIFEPAC Math provides homeschool families a complete, Christian math curriculum that emphasizes skill mastery. Designed for independent learning in grades 1-12, LIFEPACs are student worktexts (ten per grade) that are largely self-instructional. The Kindergarten LIFEPAC Course is teacher-student interactive, and uses two student books rather than the worktexts. A Teacher Guide is available for each grade level and contains the curriculum overview, notes, answer keys, and suggested schedule and teaching guidelines. The Teacher Guides for grades K-1 provide more detailed instruction for grades 2-12, to align with the self-teaching approach. Starting in second grade, the LIFEPAC Worktexts provide more direct student instruction to facilitate independent study. The parents role is to be available for student questions, to administer and grade tests, complete teacher checks, and ensure lesson completion.
Each Complete Boxed Set contains ten LIFEPACs and a teacher
guide. The only exception is the Grade K Boxed Set, which contains two student
books and a teacher guide. LIFEPACs only (no teacher guide) are also available
for use with multiple students. Review and self-tests are built into the
curriculum. LIFEPACs are colorful in the elementary grades, but become less
colorful as the grade level increases. Each set of ten LIFEPACs provides a
year-long curriculum.
You might be wondering, "What's the difference between this curriculum and Horizons Math?" After all, both programs come from the same publisher and follow a similar scope and sequence up to the sixth grade. The main difference, in my opinion, is that Horizons is not self-instructional (written instruction is not included in workbooks). Another difference is that LIFEPACs offer standard practice problems whereas Horizons offers a greater variety of problems (mazes, decoding, etc) as well as standard drills, but LIFEPACs provide many more problems per workbook page.
