My new Curriculum Choice review is up! Here’s the introduction:
As a physicist, I understand, somewhat, the nature of mathematics. It’s actually a language, and children can benefit from being taught it as a language. Among other things, this means using many different resources rather than just one curriculum. One wonderful resource, the Key to… Math Series, has been a part of our math program for eight years now.
Many people think of the Key To… Math curriculum as a remedial aid. We use it in a completely different way: to increase the children’s ability to understand mathematical concepts on their own. Naturally this also increases their confidence and reduces my workload.
You can read the rest of the review here.
I love this math curriculum because it’s flexible enough to work for almost any situation.
