At the Primer level of Math-U-See, children become comfortable with the Math-U-See methodology, learn basic counting, and learn how to write numerals. They are also introduced to addition and subtraction, skip counting, geometric shapes, and telling time. Required for the Primer level is the Math-U-See Integral Block Kit, Primer Instruction Manual, Primer Student Workbook, and the Primer Online Instruction with Video, which are all included in this Math-U-See Primer Set. For families who have previously purchased the Integer Block Kit, we also offer the Primer Set without Integer Blocks. Optionally, the Math-U-See Primer DVD is available for families who prefer to use DVD instruction instead of online instructional videos.

Category Description for Math-U-See Primer
Primer is considered the entry level and provides a broad overview and introduction to various math topics which will be mastered in a later level. Teaching children that math is fun and leading them to love math is the goal at this level. With this big picture approach, this course lends itself to children who are beginning to recognize numbers but have not mastered counting to ten verbally or are unable to recognize the numbers 0 to 10. If your child is comfortable with both and is ready for formalized instruction, the Alpha Placement Test is recommended.
The Primer Level familiarizes students with math concepts and skills, while learning to do math the Math-U-See way. Mastery of concepts becomes the expected beginning in the Alpha Level. All lessons follow a similar format – watch the DVD lesson (parent first and then child/parent), work through lesson examples in the instruction manual together, and complete worksheets. No tests are included in the Primer Level.
Children learn to write numerals, addition and subtraction, basic counting, skip counting, geometric shapes, telling time, and they will be introduced to the manipulative block system. It's an introduction to "doing math" the Math-U-See way.
