Description

Each Simply Good and Beautiful homeschool math course develops a basic foundation for math in young students. It provides a perfect balance of enjoyable learning and fun with a variety of unique games and engaging stories.

The Simply Good and Beautiful Math 4 student-led lesson time varies. Most 4th grade learners will need 30-45minutes to complete each lesson. The Grade 4 Set includes the full-color Course Book, Mental Math Map Mysteries, Answer Key, and online instructional videos. The 120 lessons follow a similar format: video instruction, mini-lesson with practice, and review. Unit Assessments are included. Engaging videos (mostly 10-15 minutes) provide full instruction and interactive practice problems.
