Charlotte Mason
A methodology based on the work of a 19th century educator who maintained that children learn best from literature (Living Books), not textbooks.
Classical
A methodology based on the Latin Trivium (three stages of learning), including the grammar stage (memorization and facts), logic stage (critical thinking), and rhetoric stage (developing/defending ideas).
Unit Study
A thematic or topical approach centered around one topic that integrates multiple subject areas.
Montessori (Discovery)
A methodology based on the work of a 20th century educator that emphasizes student and sensory-driven discovery learning and real-life applications.

Religious Content
Secular
Contains content contrary to common Christian beliefs (i.e. evolution).
Neutral
Avoids religious or theoretical topics or presents multiple viewpoints without preference.
Christian/Religious
Faith-based or including instructional religious content.
Learning Modality
Auditory
Learns through listening, talking out loud or reading out loud.
Visual
Learns through seeing, prefers written instructions and visual materials.
Kinesthetic/Tactile (Hands-On)
Learns through moving, doing and touching.
Multi-Sensory
Curriculum that employ a variety of activities/components.
Presentation
Sequential
Curriculum progresses through well-defined learning objectives. Emphasizes mastery before moving to the next topic.
Spiral
Topics and concepts are repeated from level to level, adding more depth at each pass and connecting with review.
Conceptual/Topical

A mix of teacher-led time and independent student work.
High Teacher Involvement
Teacher-led lessons; may utilize discussions, hands-on activities and working together.

Description

There are two full-color Textbooks (A and B) for each level. Although the texts are written to the student, it is assumed that instruction is being facilitated and supervised by the teacher. For instance, much of the concrete aspect of the lesson presentation is conducted by the teacher using manipulatives and supplies outlined in the Teacher Guide before progressing to the pictorial representation found in the textbooks. Also, the mental math activities (an important component of the program) are based in the Teacher Guide. The Textbooks could be used either as consumable (working and writing answers to problems as the student progresses through the lesson) or as non-consumable - answering orally in dialog with the teacher or writing answers on separate pieces of paper.

Publisher's Description of Primary Mathematics Common Core Edition Textbook 4B
Textbooks present new concepts and learning tasks for students to complete with educator supervision. They include practice and review problems, and are designed to be used alongside workbooks. Features & Components:
  • Mathematical concepts are introduced in the opening pages and taught to mastery through specific learning tasks that allow for immediate assessment and consolidation.
  • The Concrete Pictorial Abstract approach enables students to encounter math in a meaningful way.
  • Direct correlation of the textbook to the workbook facilitates focused review and evaluation.
  • The modeling method enables students to visualize and solve problems quickly and efficiently.
  • New mathematical concepts are introduced through a spiral progression that builds on concepts already taught and mastered.
  • Metacognition is employed as a strategy for learners to monitor their thinking processes in problem solving. Speech and thought bubbles provide guidance through the thought processes, making even the most challenging problems accessible to students.
  • Color patches invite active student participation and facilitate lively discussion about concepts.
  • Regular reviews in the textbook provide consolidation opportunities.
  • The glossary effectively combines pictorial representation with simple mathematical definitions to provide a comprehensive reference guide for students.
  • A curriculum map details where to find textbook content that covers each of the Common Core State Standards.
Note: Two textbooks (A and B) for each grade correspond to the two halves of the school year. Answer key not included. Soft cover.
Category Description for Primary Math Common Core Edition

Primary Math Common Core Edition is a Singapore Math curriculum adapted to align with Common Core State Standards. It retains the proven Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) approach and strong problem-solving methodology while adding content in data analysis, probability, negative numbers, and coordinate graphing.

This edition maintains the same high-quality conceptual teaching and visual models that have made Singapore Math so effective, with some topics rearranged for better alignment.

Key Curriculum Features:

  • Concrete to Pictorial to Abstract progression with strong visual models
  • Emphasis on mathematical reasoning, problem-solving, and conceptual understanding
  • Additional topics including probability, data analysis, negative numbers, and coordinate graphing
  • Clear, logical sequencing with built-in reinforcement
  • Unit-specific reviews

Program Components:

  • Textbooks (A & B): Full-color, non-consumable books with clear explanations and worked examples
  • Workbooks (A & B): Black & white consumable books with focused practice problems
  • Teacher Guides: Essential for homeschool use. Include reduced student pages, answers, detailed lesson plans, teaching notes, and CC standards alignment

Important Notes:

  • Basic components (textbooks, workbooks, teacher guides) cannot be mixed between U.S., Standards, and Common Core Editions.
  • Manipulative kits are highly recommended for concrete learning, especially in early grades.
  • Transitioning between editions is best done between grades after completing B books.

Primary Math Common Core Edition stands out for its visual models, problem-solving focus, and strong conceptual foundation. It is an excellent choice for homeschool families seeking a rigorous Singapore Math curriculum aligned with Common Core standards.
