Description
Set includes 2 print items: the Teaching Guide/Answer Key and the Student Text/Workbook. ~Sara
The large (450+ pages!) spiral Student Text and Workbook includes an introduction to the course, password to the course website, and the student lessons. Most lessons begin with a hands-on activity which ranges from practical activities like comparing prices, to hands-on activities to illustrated concepts and games for skills practice. Vocabulary and important concepts to know are identified with an icon giving students a visual alert to pay close attention to the information. Along with these unique traits, students also have lessons to read, practice pages to complete, chapter reviews, and end of unit projects. Each student will need their own copy of the consumable Student Textbook.
Softcover Teaching Guide and Answer Key includes a suggested teaching schedule (4 Days per Week), an overview of the course, (optional) chapter tests, teacher notes for each unit, answers to the Activity Sheets and Tests, and project/activity templates.
Publisher's Description of Exploring Creation with Mathematics Level 6 Set
Exploring Creation with Mathematics, Level 6, expands upon students’ mathematical foundation in a way that is age appropriate, easy to read, and God-honoring.
Right from the start, Exploring Creation with Mathematics, Level 6 lets students know they are going to study math as a tool to help them know God better and understand their unique place in the universe. Every unit begins with a devotional called Seeing Our Creator that connects the upcoming mathematical concepts to our Creator. Just some of the mathematical concepts covered in this book include fractions and ratios, rates and probability, and negative numbers. Students will also receive an introduction to algebra to prepare them for higher-level math courses.
In this course, you’ll find the following:
A suggested daily schedule with thoughtful, systematic pacing through concepts
Just the right amount of skills practice to learn a new topic without feeling burdened
Instructions and activity sheets for easy-to-set-up games, activities, and projects that make learning fun and ensure students understand the concepts taught
Colorful, age-appropriate lesson layouts and page design that make learning more inviting
Options and suggestions for customizing lessons to meet students’ needs
Supply lists, teaching tips, answers to the problems, and suggestions for taking activities further
Each activity in Exploring Creation with Mathematics, Level 6 will help your child understand the age-old question “Why do I need to know this?” From the very first page of Exploring Creation with Mathematics, Level 6, students will understand they are learning mathematics as a means of knowing our Creator. By the end of the book, students will be able to make direct connections between our Creator and everyday life through the mathematical skills they have mastered.
This course is designed to be done 4 days a week for 28 weeks, and each lesson takes 30 to 45 minutes to complete. A suggested daily schedule is included with this course so students can easily understand what is expected of them each day.
To fully use this course, some common household and math manipulative items will be needed. A complete list of items is included in the Teaching Guide & Answer Key.
Category Description for Level 6 (Exploring Creation with Mathematics)
Hands-on activities, manipulatives, and consistent math practice come together in this course to equip students to master math skills including multiples and factors, long division, prime numbers and prime factorization, decimals, fractions, percents, integers, and one-step equations. Along with mastery of these important skills, students also learn measurement, data, and probability, and are introduced to Algebra and Geometry. Each unit offers a skills practice, hands-on activity, and practice pages for a multisensory approach which is unusual at the higher grade levels. Required math manipulatives include fraction tiles, 3D Shapes, and a protractor. Household items are also necessary, and a four-operation calculator is suggested. An optional manipulative kit is available for your convenience.

Lacking
Apologia math is really lacking. This is my first time using this program and I thought it sounded good but there isn't enough in the daily lessons. There isn't enough practice to provide mastery and there isn't enough review to remember anything. Each lesson only takes about 10-15 minutes. Maybe. There is going to be major gaps in my sons's 6th grade math education with using this curriculum alone. After the first semester, I bough a 6th grade math practice book for him to do along side this. There also isn't much tie in with creation at all. I thought it would be woven throughout the lessons and it really isn't. You wouldn't even know this is a christian curriculum most of the time. I won't be using Apologia math for any other levels or any other children.

Very good, multi-sensory program
I like the colorful pages and the amount of work assigned for each day; it doesn't seem to be overwhelming. The new concepts seem to be explained rather clearly with step-by-step examples and fun activities to reinforce them. My daughter is enjoying it so far (4 weeks into the school year).
