Today I get to tell you all about an affordable complete math curriculum by ThemeVille Math. ThemeVille Math has curricula available for grades first through fifth, we have been using the ThemeVille Math Level 2 curriculum for the past month or so. ThemeVille Math Level 2 is for second graders that meets or exceeds standards.
What's included:
Student Worktext Book
Teacher Solutions book
What's included:
Student Worktext Book
Teacher Solutions book
The student worktext book is 8.5x11 and about 1.5 inches thick. There's approximately 560 pages. There are 120 lessons, each lesson has a two page pre-lesson exercise followed by a two page lesson. This method helps to keep a slight spiral going, so the students are remembering previous tasks and building upon them. It takes us roughly 15-20 minutes to work through all 4 pages. The pages have black and white graphics throughout the book, no color. The graphics provide enough to illustrations to give the kids visual aids without being over stimulating. The entire book is 3 hole punched so I thought it would make it very easy to pull the pages out to add to the portfolio however, the pages aren't perforated and the end up ripping right at the pre-punched holes.

The teacher's solutions book is 8.5x11 and a little less than 1/2 an inch thick. It's roughly 120 pages long. Each page has 4 pages of the student worktext, so one full days worth of work on each page. The pages have the answers and any work that may help to get the answers.
You can create a login account at www.themevillemath.com to access the lesson videos as needed. I was would not use the videos as a sole instruction method for my children, however if I happened to get stumped and not know how to teach a certain task (which lets face it, it happens!), it is nice to reference it to refresh my memory prior to teaching it to my children.
The lesson videos from the MathVille website.
The manipulatives is something we did not receive with our kit which was not a big deal to us since we do lots of motessori style learning and have plenty on hand. If you are a new homeschool family, I highly recommend getting the manipulatives kit as well. You will find very early on kids learn so much better with hands on activities!
