Math may come easy to you but I for one have had a doosey of
a time making math fun at my house. Math has been one of those subjects where I am constantly trying to strike a balance of fun and work. If this is you too, then please take heart friend, this is where
Schoolhouse Teachers.com comes into play!
With SchoolhouseTeachers.com I can pick a class, even one
I’m unsure of, like Starting Out With First Grade Math and then I just have to assist, not truly “teach” math. This makes my
homeschool mama heart very happy. I can be confidant that the math course I
choose will be taught well and that my student is learning.
When each of my children reach about the age of five I start them with simple math workbooks from the Dollar Tree and real-life application with daily living. Once they start first grade we start a more "formal" approach to math. This class is just right for my first grade learner. It starts with simple one-to-one correspondence in lesson one and builds to mental addition and subtraction. This class has colorful and interactive slides that teach a specific math concept before the student completes a related worksheet or activity.
More times than not, SchoolhouseTeachers.com comes to my
rescue with just the course I need. And since math is a subject that isn’t my
favorite to teach, I’m grateful to see so many math courses and workshops that are right at my fingertips!
There are also math workshops geared for elementary aged students and links to World Book Online articles about math. I love the idea of having math workshops for my elementary-age children. We lean more to a mastery approach in math since my children start to get bored with repetitive review.
Whole Number Place Value Workshop is one of the workshops that my third and fourth graders will be starting soon. This workshop goes beyond just ones-tens-hundreds place values.
Other math workshops include the following:
1. Decimals Workshop
2. Fractions Workshop
3. Multiplication Workshop
4. Understanding Fractions Workshop.
You can learn more about each of these workshops as well as all courses math-related on Schoolhouse Teachers.com by clicking HERE.
