Homeschool Snapshot--Math 6

In 6th grade, our Math book becomes a textbook and the student has to write out the problems in a notebook. Using graph paper has really helped Josiah keep his numbers lined up for long division and multiplication. Sticking with the same Math curriculum from the beginning has been a huge advantage for my children. Each year in elementary school concepts are repeated and built upon. Each concept starts out so simply that I'm almost tempted to skip a lesson. But when that concept becomes advanced and they have no problem picking it up and putting multiple skills together, I'm thankful that I didn't skip the lesson that I thought was too easy.
