So many new parents are realizing that homeschooling works great for their child and they want to jump into the homeschool community. But it can be overwhelming with all the choices out there for curriculum. I compiled popular well regarded curriculum suggestions by subject and put it into this guide
This podcast episode highlights the math suggestions and the next 3 episodes will highlight the other core subjects.
The math suggestions are in the guide above but also specifically linked here
Math Mammoth-workbook
Complete program
Beast Academy-on line or workbook
Complete program
Spectrum Math-workbook
https://www.carsondellosa.com/search-results/?q=spectrum%20math
Covers all state standards but I’d add more practice with a math app or games if your child needs more review
Singapore Math-text and workbook
https://www.singaporemath.com
(There are different versions to choose from, choosing the newest is likely best)
Teaching Textbooks-online streaming program with workbook as a backup
http://www.teachingtextbooks.com
We love this program BUT I only suggest this for short term use if you have a kid struggling and needs something engaging. It does not follow typical standards so might not cover all a “typical” grade would cover in a year but it DOES work great for some kids who dislike math, need review, and need something engaging. If you use it from the start it covers all the math skills, however, it may leave gaps if only using for 1 year. But having a child that hates math and not progressing with a program is not productive either. This program is wonderful for some kids who hated math and didn’t understand it but needed something different.
The levels DO NOT match grades, so use the placement test to determine level.
