My son actually enjoys math because of this.
My 6yr old son has told me multiple times that he really likes this curriculum. I grew up not enjoying math & wanting to stay away from it as much as possible so for my child to say he enjoys it feels like such a victory. I appreciate the slower approach to this curriculum. There are days when the page he is working on might be a challenge for him & days where he can zip through. I haven't used any of the links provided in the book but may when he takes a little break from school in the winter to help keep him motivated. I had tried another math curriculum before this one & it required a lot of "extras" where I was having to prep a lot ahead of time. I have two kids in different grades & I work so I need a curriculum that is open & shut & finding this one, which is in depth & doesn't cut corners, has been such a help in our day. Highly recommend.

Happy with the program
So far so good! There isn't much written instruction so be prepared to teach your child the skills if they do not know them bur all in all we are loving it. It's challenging and I don't mind teaching the kids hands on. If you are looking for something with instruction, this isn't it. However, the skills they learn and practice are unmatched.

Great math series
We like math mammoth. I like how they have a chapter of Kinder review. My little one transitioned and so far is understanding the materials in chapter 1. The only reason I didnt give all 5 stars was that I wished it would be spiraled bound. It would be easier to write and flip pages.

Love the mastery approach
It's working great for our family. My son is struggling with math so we are going back a couple levels to get caught up in I think this is going to be great for him to build those foundational skills.

It seems like a solid, well laid out program to make sure my son knows the basics. I am using it like a multivitamin. It makes sure we are getting what we miss from our daily playing with math

Be sure to buy in COLOR!
We truly love MathMammoth and all our kids have dramatically improved in their math skills. I will never switch to another program. I must say that a little color goes a long way though! We have the CD and print out the books since our cost of printing is so low, but it's a pain to be printing math for the 5 who are still in elementary grades and all doing MathMammoth. The color books are so expensive which is tragic since the color really makes a significantly positive difference. That is my thought. Maybe some people don't mind the black and white versions but my kids sure appreciate the little bit of color in the color version.

Love Math Mammoth
Ive loved using Math Mammoth for my kids, but hated having to print and organize it myself. I love having the workbook format and it keeps everything easily organized for my multiple homeschooled kids.

Why did you choose this?
Hello I would like to ask if this version is the International?
Thanks
Thanks
NO - the international edition (which we do not sell) is identified on the cover as such.
Are the work texts perforated for easy tear-out?
no they are not. And because this is a text and workbook in one, you often do some work and then turn the page and the back of that page is the next lesson. So I wouldn't want to tear pages out as I'd lose it and then be missing a lesson or instructions. instead I purchase the spiral bound, so that it lays flat and we see only one page at a time, but nothing gets lost. I have also purchased the digital version so that I could print out individual pages and that worked very well, too, when I was catching a student up and only needed parts of the book. then I was able to 3 hole punch the sheets I printed and put them in a binder, or use a stapler to create mini booklets.
Is critical thinking and problem solving skills implemented in the lessons?
Within the context of the problem solving, the children need to use critical thinking but that’s not directly taught. The problem solving problems are very good though and are in most lessons.
Do we need any additional materials for this curriculum? Abacus, tiles, flashcards, etc...
You don't really NEED anything additional, but if you have a hands-on learner, manipulatives of some sort are helpful.
Is the math mammoth light blue series the common core standards aligned version?
I teach in the public schools and use Mammoth math with my daughters at home when my husband homeschools, and from what I have seen, it is aligned, but it adds a few other grade appropriate topics that may not be covered in the Common Core curriculum (notably money and time in level 1)
Is the math mammoth light blue series the common core standards aligned version?
Yes it is. I've been using the program for years now in California. I homeschool through a charter and have a credentialed teacher who collects all the info for the state. It is her favorite math program and she wishes our county would adopt it.
According to the FAQ on the Math Mammoth website-
Is Math Mammoth aligned with any state standards?
Grades 1-7 meet and exceed the Common Core Standards.
(I can attest that it covers core standards in an understandable common sense way and goes beyond to give a wonderful foundation for student learners. I've even learned a thing of two by teaching it!)
was required for program I enrolled child in
I needed a fully laid out curriculum that covers all the basics.
Affordable, efficient, and well-reviewed.
This curriculum says it teaches the "why" behind math, not just the "how." It also comes with a lot of great, free resources.
