Summary of Contents:
Modern Curriculum Press Level A Math begins with a review of previously learned concepts such as addition and subtraction as well as place value. It will not rush your child or assume that he/she remembers everything from level K and will take the time to strengthen the foundation before moving on. It will cement previous concepts and then gradually work the new ones in.
Each chapter lists it's objectives at the beginning as well as any needed materials throughout the lesson. This is a great help in preparation and takes a lot of the tedious work out of it for the teacher! And you can get all of the materials you need!
The lesson then details page-by-page directions for you on how to introduce the lesson to your child as well as give you extended activity suggestions to help the concepts "gel" better.
Daily Lesson Plan:
The lesson OBJECTIVES identify concepts students will learn and help keep you on track! The MENTAL MATH problems require students to use cumulative problem solving skills without the help of paper and pencil.
The unique SKILL REVIEW section in each Modern Curriculum Press math lesson is crucial to making sure that your child continues practice in each concept learned. Never is a new concept drilled and then dropped as your child is rushed ahead!
Optional ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES will help further strengthen your child's understanding of mathematical concepts.
There is also a convenient list of COMMON ERRORS. This list describes specific errors that frequently occur in the learning of the skills and content of 1st grade mathematics. In the CORRECTING COMMON ERROR features found in every lesson throughout the teacher's edition these errors are further explored and suggestions are made for their remediation.
