A year ago we bought the first part of your math program. We have used it and have now bought the second part of your math program. My boys have struggled with understanding math and to be quite honest, I really struggled with math. When we got the first combined module set, I immediately started it with my boys and me. Where math was not really looked forward to before, it has now become our most enjoyable subject. It has been exciting to see the boys grasp new concepts and ideas. They enjoy it so much and understand what they are doing that they have even gone to church and shown other kids how to figure out different problems.
For example, the boys are involved in a scouting program that has to have dues paid. They are allowed to either pay the dues cash or collect a certain amount of aluminum cans to pay for the dues. My boys have gone into their group and have actually figured out how much each can is worth towards the dues. They know how many cans they have to collect in order to pay their dues. It has been exciting for me to see them have fun with it. We have also been studying Ancient Egypt. One of my boys has enjoyed the math so much that he has done some research into the Egyptian math. He found out how they wrote their numbers and two of my boys have actually taken some playtime and done some of their math problems using Egyptian numerals.
Thank you so much for making your program available to people who home school.
