Dear parents: we are pleased to provide a biblically centered comprehensive math program with a Christian worldview that will equip your child with essential math skills. Math concepts are integrated with Christian principles and applications for Christlike character. Mathematical skills are taught with a balanced approach of computation and problem-solving applications. Automatic recall of math facts is foundational to building mathematical knowledge. Critical-thinking skills are developed through the use of problem-solving strategies. The student is encouraged to explain the process of his solution; such explanation reinforces his knowledge of strategies and procedures. Strategies learned in third grade are reinforced and extended in the upcoming grades to increase mathematical thinking. The student actively learns and understands new math concepts with a hands-on approach, using manipulatives at the concrete level. Through teacher-guided practice and interactive discussion, the student progresses from the concrete level through the pictorial level to the abstract level. At the abstract level the student can successfully understand and solve problems with fluency without the use of manipulatives or pictures. Mastery of core math concepts is accomplished with a systematic review throughout the year. Daily classroom review for 5-10 minutes, daily review sections on Worktext pages, Chapter Reviews, and Cumulative Reviews provide the practice vital for reinforcement and retention of previously learned skills. Enjoyment of math is one of the goals for your child in this program. Children who enjoy math and learn its relationship to real-life experiences are more likely to succeed in mastering complex skills. In each chapter your child will observe Hal Watson, a photographer, and his pet squirrel, Horatio, using everyday math skills as they share adventures together at national parks in North America. Your child's teacher will provide creative activities to enhance math skills. As a parent, you can encourage the enjoyment of math by sharing ways that math concepts are used in your family's daily life. - Student Worktext p. 1.
