Welcome to Math on the Level, a complete K-8 homeschool math curriculum for the whole family.  This well-tested curriculum is a home-school approach to math that covers all concepts from pre-K through pre-algebra.  Its real-life teaching methods and review-over-time approach will give your children a strong foundation in math. With Math on the Level, normal daily-life activities become math lessons which help make math real.  The curriculum is designed to let you change the sequence and approach to meet the needs of your family. It helps you teach to the child's maturation level and match the pace of instruction to the child's readiness to learn. A thorough, easy-to-use record keeping system helps you track each child's progress.  The Math on the Level 5-A-Day review provides review over time of all math concepts at a pace that adjusts to each child's need, which increases motivation and long-term retention. 

Math on the Level breaks out of typical one-size-fits-all approach of classroom instruction.

The Math on the Level approach is to...

• Teach math through life instead of textbooks or workbooks.
• Adapt the program and expectations to each child's maturation level and learning pace, not just age or grade level.
• Equip parents to address different learning styles, including special education.
• Let you determine the teaching sequence so you can take advantage of life's teaching moments and teach different-aged children together.
• Provide easy-to-use tools to keep track of what each child has learned.
• Replace workbooks and generalized (one-size-fits-all) reviews with a unique 5-A-Day system that gives review over time while focusing on each child's need -- without busywork.
• Take the work out of review scheduling using an advanced auto-scheduling spreadsheet.
• Use real-life methods and review over time so children understand and enjoy learning math. 
• Provide a way to include math in unit studies.

The benefits to using the Math on the Level approach

• Teaching math through life helps the child understand better and have higher motivation.
• Adapting the instruction to the child's maturation level prevents counterproductive frustration and sense of failure.
• The Teaching Guides help make it easy to teach any math concept, even if you aren't confident with math.
• The curriculum adapts well to different teaching approaches and changing family needs.
• Children who previously were bored or frustrated with math start looking forward to math time (and greatly appreciate the 5-A-Day reviews).
• Children who learn math quickly go as fast as they can; those who need more time can go as slowly as they need without feeling behind or less intelligent.
• A simple getting started process helps you identify any gaps in your child's understanding of previously taught math concepts.
• The 5-A-Day system provides regular practice over time with all math concepts to ensure long-term retention and prevent gaps (all without busywork).

What Math on the Level isn't

• A one-size-fits-all curriculum where the same teaching scripts, sequence, and practice sets are used for all children.
• An approach where math is presented only as a series of abstract, pencil and paper concepts.
• An approach that emphasizes short-term drill (to pass a test).
• A classroom approach designed to teach 20 to 30 same-aged children.
• A scripted program where you are always told exactly what to say.
• A video approach where someone else teaches your child.
• A textbook approach with a prescribed scope and sequence for each grade.
• A self-instruction approach where the child learns from reading a textbook or workbook and works independently (although older children and adults using Math on the Level for review often can use the curriculum this way).
