Making Math Meaningful Curriculum

From Cornerstone Curriculum Project this unique math program provides your child with first-hand experiences for each math concept and skill. Teaching begins with concrete experiences and moves to the abstract. Your children start by solving problems directly with the use of real objects, bringing real meaning to math symbols.

 Each lesson includes a list of materials needed, a description of the concept or skill being taught, and explicit instructions for the parent on what to do and say for each lesson. No lesson planning is needed. Levels 5 and 6 are written directly to your children. Answers to the Student Workbook pages are at the end of each lesson. The workbooks are consumable and meant to be used by one student.

We also carry Starting Points World View Primer, also from the folks at Cornerstone.
