    Inspire Confidence in Math

    Mathematical terms and concepts can seem so complex and intimidating as students transition from the upper elementary years to Jr High. Katherine Hannon's down-to-earth style and conversational tone sets students at ease and inspires them to approach all those terms and concepts with confidence. She imparts an understanding that each simply describe a useful tool we can put to use in everyday life, history, science, art, music, and more!

    Engaging, Conversational Lessons

    Principles of Mathematics focuses on mathematical concepts and emphasizes the practical application of it. Students learn both the ‘why’ and ‘how’ of math through engaging, conversational lessons. This approach firms up foundational math concepts and prepares students for upper-level math in a logical, step-by-step way. This helps the student understand concepts, build problem-solving skills, and see how different aspects of math connect.

    Incredibly Faith Building

    “Every time you solve a math problem, you’re relying on the underlying consistency present in math. Any time you see that math still operates consistently, it’s testifying that God is still on His throne, faithfully holding all things together.” – Katherine Hannon

    In Principles of Mathematics Book 1, each lesson and exercise leads the student towards understanding the character and attributes of God through the study of math history, concepts, and application.

    Principles of Mathematics Book 1 goes beyond adding a Bible verse or story to math instruction, it actively teaches and describes how the consistencies and creativity we see in mathematical concepts proclaim the faithful consistency of God Himself and points students towards understanding math through a Biblical worldview.

    Overall, a great curriculum
    Review by BP
    Used this for my 11 year old after she completed Math Lessons for a Living Education level 6. I'm sure there are many math curriculums out there that teach math aptly, but the reason I keep returning to MasterBooks year after year is because it teaches math from a Biblical worldview. It rightly points to and praises God for His amazingly consistent laws in nature as the basis for the reason that we can do math in the first place.

    After completing this entire course this year, I can say that in the whole answer key, I think I only found two errors. I appreciated the high accuracy there!
    Understand

    Most part it was easy too use needs a little more repeat on somethings
    Clear, manageable, and effective math lessons.
    Review by Sarah
    We have really enjoyed this 7th grade math course. The lessons are clear, easy to understand, and presented in a way that helps students build confidence with new concepts. The material is well paced so it doesn’t feel overwhelming, while still providing a solid understanding of the topics. It has been a great fit for our family and has made math much more approachable and enjoyable.
    did not care for it
    Review by mom24
    We used this course for two of our kids. They both used it on the same year. We did not really care for it. There was a lot of instances we ran into where there was inconsistencies in what was expected. Sometimes they were to round early in the problem to get the right answer. Sometimes they weren't supposed to round until the final answer. There were a handful of times we would struggle through a problem and then my husband would come home from work and when he would work through it he found several times where there were errors in the answer key. This program is rather wordy and complicated. I wish it was as simple and straightforward as the elementary math that Master Books sells.
    Math that works!!
    Review by Mom of 8
    So we started 13 weeks ago with abeka math for 7th grade. I realized right away we have a problem too much work, too confusing to teach and he was frustrated. He kept on about his love for all MB and we immediately switched out the math and what a relief. This math is straight forward easy to use and he loves it . No stress. We even purchased the MB online academy to go with it and she is amazing. Everything about the entire book and academy are above what we expected and will continue on.
    A great launch point
    Review by Reed Academy
    This year, we transitioned from the elementary math course to the Principles of Math course. We have loved it. The foundation my son received in previous years was invaluable and has allowed him to understand and move smoothly throughout this course. It is a blessing to position him for more difficult math in the future.

    Review by Ashley
    Shorter lessons help my daughter stay focused and not get stressed or over stimulated.
    great math curriculum
    Review by Annamarie
    My daughter started 7th grade and she is doing great with this curriculum. It does have a good bit of reading in each lesson but it is broken down into simple steps to help her learn the process of each problem. Will definitely be getting the second level next year as well!
    I like the layout
    Review by Hess Family
    I personally liked the lessons and the layout for this course, however it did not work for my son. I would still recommend this math curriculum and add the academy lessons to go with it.
    Exactly what we needed
    Review by Kelli
    This curriculum is put together very well! It's easy to follow and there's plenty of review to help students retain what they've previously learned I love all the quizzes and exams because it I feel like it helps me really gauge how much my son is learning. The practical approach and how each principle applies to everyday life makes understanding so much easier. The Master Books Academy course that you can purchase separately has also been a HUGE help! I definitely recommend adding it as well.
