The number one reason I homeschool is so my children find as much joy as possible in learning. I want them to see learning as something they get to do, rather than something they have to do. Vacuuming is a chore. Learning something like math shouldn’t be. Can everyone enjoy learning math? I think so. Math, like all subjects, can and should be interesting, but enjoyment and learning only go hand in hand when the curriculum and learning style mesh with the learner.
Over the years, we’ve tried on a lot of curriculums and ways to learn. I think trying on new ways of learning is important. How do we know if something is going to be a good fit unless we try it on? We’ve found hands-on curriculums that allow my homeschooler to work at her own pace, offer a variety of ways to practice, and offer clear instruction are the best fit! A good fit is vital if we want our kids to enjoy learning. Kids need to be comfortable and be able to move around in the challenges that come with learning.
The best part of trying on a curriculum is when we find a great fit. Like the pair of pants we buy in every color because they are so comfortable, there is nothing better than finding materials that work for our homeschoolers. We’ve lucked out! My homeschooler feels this way about CTCMath. We’ve tried on many math curricula, and she always says CTCMath feels the best.
4 Ways CTCMath will Help Your Homeschooler Enjoy Learning Math
CTCMath is Hands-on
We love how students use interactive questions to practice what they are learning. CTCMath also offers games to help students practice things like multiplication and division. For kids who prefer paper and pencil, you can print out worksheets.
CTCMath Lets Kids Work at Their Own Pace
CTCMath offers unlimited access to all levels (K-Calculus), so no matter where my homeschooler is in her learning, she has the resources she needs. She also loves that she picks the lessons she wants to do each day. Somedays, she feels like working on fractions and other days on geometry. Other days she goes through the review lessons to make sure she’s retaining what she’s learning.
She also appreciates she can rewatch, stop, and pause the instructional videos as she needs to.
CTCMath Offers a Variety of Ways to Practice
- Short, straight to the point video lessons offer example problems for kids to think through
- Interactive quesitons or worksheets
