Level 2 Math
Review by ReedAcademy
This was our first year homeschooling, and honestly, math was my biggest concern. Master Books level 2 made it easy to learn and teach my son. He understood, had fun, and worked ahead because he enjoyed math. That's a win in my book!
Sweet story connecting math to real life
Review by Mandi
My kids have loved following along with Charlie and Charlotte. Their story connects math to real life and times perfectly with the seasons and us having baby the same time as the characters! It hits more like a 1st grade level but that works well for my advanced kindergarten and my 2nd grade who has some delays. When my oldest needed extra practice, I was glad for the pdf of practice pages.
Underwhelmed
Review by A. R.
Last year we did Saxon 1, I had a live hate relationship with that. It took up the majority of schooling leaving her not wanting to do any more, so other subjects got shortened. So I tried this program and she finished in six months. It was far too easy. So I'm having the exact opposite problem. We had her evaluated for end of year and she tested at her grade level, which is first grade but this curriculum (that she's finished) is second grade,... So she should have tested above grade level. We've switched to another program and it's a third grade level, she is able to do everything so far and seems to be the next level, so I guess it prepared her well enough.
Frustration Free
Review by Sarah
We are continuing with Math Lessons for a Living Education: Level 2 after having such a great experience with Level 1, and I couldn’t be happier! This level maintains the same amazing format and content that made Level 1 so easy to use. It’s truly "open and go," which has been a game-changer for us.

We switched over to Master Books after using a different, much busier curriculum that left my child feeling frustrated with all the extra pictures and distractions on each page. It was hard for them to navigate through the lessons, and the extra clutter was just too overwhelming. Now, with Math Lessons for a Living Education, everything is simple, straightforward, and engaging without being overly complicated or busy. My child is so much more confident and eager to dive into math each day.

I’m so glad I found Master Books, and I can’t recommend this curriculum enough for families looking for an easier, more enjoyable math experience. We’re excited to continue with Level 2 and beyond!
Love it
Review by Joann

Refreshing and simple!
Review by Samantha
It’s simple, no over drilling or extra “busy work”, it’s designed perfectly for a homeschool family to learn in a relaxed way!
I Love this Math Seies
Review by Stacey W
I highly recommend MLFLE! It's amazing! In level 2 there is so many fun hands on activities such as creating Mr. Measure, a quilt, thermometer, and more. The stories are fun and engaging each week. I love adding the Practice Makes Perfect book for the perfect amount of practice each day.
continuing from the beginning
Review by ashley
We've used this math since level k and continue to love it. We completed this level this past spring and have moved onto level 3. The spiral approach is perfect. The gentleness makes it not stressful and not frustrating. If a concept is mastered we simply do a extra day and keep going. No drill and kill. It's wonderful really. Trust the method!
So good
