Simply Good and Beautiful Math: What It's All About

Our Math 4 through 8 courses are unique. Students begin a lesson by watching a video, which includes interactive guided practice completed in the course book. Videos often include an engaging theme to make the content relatable to the student. Lessons in Math 4, 5, and 6 include a concise, written mini-lesson. Students can refer to the mini-lesson for help during the lesson practice. Or they can choose to skip the video completely and use the mini-lesson if they already have an understanding of that day’s concept. Sometimes parents choose to teach their children using only the mini-lesson. Math 7 and Math 8, which is our Pre-Algebra course, include more detailed written lessons that have multiple examples. Students can use the written lessons in addition to or in place of the video lessons. These courses help prepare students for higher-level math.

After each lesson, students complete Lesson Practice and Review pages. You can then check your child’s work with the answer key or solutions manual that is included in the course set. Reviews, games, logic activities, and puzzles are included throughout each course, and assessments can be found at the end of each unit.
