Review by Joann
My son has enjoyed going through math lesson for a living education. We love the open and go ease of lessons each day, the story that goes throughout the entire year. I love the way it is easy to teach and walk alongside my son as he works.
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
Review by Amy
We love this curriculum!
Trust The Process - It Works!
Review by MC
I know a lot of people think MLFLE isn't "enough", but having completed 2 levels now, I firmly believe if you trust the process, IT WORKS! We started out with another new math curriculum that was more hands-on and more "advanced". It was awful. The students were rushed through topics so quickly that they could do the work, but there was ZERO retention or review. I switched to MLFLE and it CHANGED OUR HOMESCHOOL! No more tears! Confidence!!!! Math is now my daughter's favorite subject! She has a love of learning again! And I am constantly amazed at how she is applying her math skills in real life scenarios! Yes, Masterbooks is more gentle. But it is designed that way! It builds a FIRM foundation in the basics vs rushing through them just for the sake of being "rigorous". Remember, we want our foundations built on the rock, not sand. And this math curriculum does a wonderful job of building firm math foundations and pointing to the real ROCK OF OUR SALVATION. I highly recommend Math Lessons For A Living Education!
Easy lesson plan with lots of manipulative options
Review by Easy to teach
Addition has been very easy to grasp. The carrying was easy to teach using the houses concept. We have struggled with subtraction. Definitely suggest getting an abacus.
The lessons are laid out to give enough time to practice new concepts. Can easily have math done in 45 minutes to an hour including practice.
Nice progression
Review by Lisa
We did book 1 last year and have moved on to book 2 this year. There is a nice progression from book 1 to book 2 and the continuation of the story is nice as well. My daughter is learning along with the fictional characters in the stories.
No Struggles
Review by Emilie
My second grader has ADD and this math has been a breath of fresh air. No more tears, no more struggles to understand the concepts. It moves at the right pace so she feels like she understands the concepts before another one is introduced. There is more joy when it’s time to do math now!
So much fun
Review by Jessica
She loved piggy math for 1st grade and moving right into second grade did not disappoint. I have enjoyed watching her love of learning blossom through the short easy to navigate daily lessons that kept my 1st grader begging to do “just one more lesson” each day.
