Math Level 4: Lessons For A Living Education (Paperback)

The Math Lessons for a Living Education series helps take math from the pages of a book and place it in the context of real-life situations so that kids can see the practical application of these concepts. Rather than focusing on simple memorization, students are encouraged to discover important connections as they work out solutions, develop a better understanding, and strengthen their skills. Math Level 4: •Begins and ends the course with important reviews of basic and complex concepts
• Contains a helpful solutions manual and easy-to-use manipulatives in the back of the book
• Includes a course calendar that helps organize daily lessons, focused on multiplication that uses carrying of values, steps for division and how to check it, mixed numbers, equivalent fractions, decimals, percentages, basic geometry, charts, and graphs, averaging, and much more!

A summer spent in Peru has meant a lot of changes for the growing family of twins Charlie and Charlotte. It’s time to enjoy a family trip and see new sights while they learn how math continues to play an important and unexpected role in their daily adventures!

The meaning of family and other qualities are developed in the midst of their discoveries, while students are encouraged to apply critical thinking and interact with the world around them. The content can be easily adapted for any education program, and uses a combination of stories, narration, copywork, and projects that will appeal to active learners.
Even as a child, I was always writing...scribbling poetry instead of doing math homework, penning epistles to friends instead of scripting book reports, and concocting tales "from yesteryear" instead of studying for that dreaded Spanish exam. When I wasn't writing something, you probably would have found me reading historical novels or drawing horses.
As an adult, I have taught my four children at home for seventeen years and written and illustrated more than 20 books.
In 2009, I began to write my history series, A Living History of Our World, and added the much-loved math series, Math Lessons for a Living Education in 2010. In early 2015, I dived into the adventure of owning my own publishing company, Jellybean Jar Publications. I also work with Master Books of New Leaf Publications.
