We do not simply outline subjects: we give examples of problems; show how to move from simple to more complex; and give actual examples of word problems, number patterns and much more.

We are very pleased with this curriculum and believe that it truly meets the needs of students ranging from the slow to the advanced. We have taken great pains to show parents how to teach concepts and what to do when a child is struggling. This is not just a series of lesson plans - there is plenty of teaching advice throughout the book. We also give plenty of suggestions for those whose children are progressing rapidly.

For those of you with 5th graders who are behind or have gaps, we strongly suggest you purchase this curriculum.

Please note: the price for our Fourth Grade Mathematics book includes the 4 Key To workbooks. These are necessary for the curriculum as they are built into it. Homeschoolers outside the US may substitute metric measurement for American measurement.
