Lesson Plans for Math Mammoth Complete Curriculum (Light Blue Series)

LESSON PLANS for the Math Mammoth complete curriculum work inside Homeschool Planet software. The plans help you pace the curriculum (which is something that many of my customers have asked about), and offer instructional video links and links to Internet games and activities that are matched to each lesson in the curriculum.

You also have the option of purchasing a "PLUS" version of each plan, which additionally includes a PDF version of the plan. If you prefer the PDF, you don't have to use Homeschool Planet; you can simply use the PDF and ignore the Homeschool Planet part.

Essential features of the lesson plans

• The lesson plan assigns specific pages from the curriculum to each day in the plan, thus pacing the curriculum for you. And if you miss a day of school work, you can easily "push" the tasks ahead in time in the calendar software, or dismiss them. The student receives a note of each day's tasks inside the Homeschool Planet, and after finishing, can mark each task as completed.
• Next, the plan includes links to teaching videos by the author (Maria Miller). These videos are matched to the lessons they belong to. You CAN also find these videos here or at Math Mammoth Youtube channel, but they are not mapped to the exact lessons they belong to anywhere else EXCEPT in the lesson plan!
• Moreover (and this is a great feature), the plans offer a wealth of Internet resources, games, and activities that are mapped to specific lessons in the curriculum. There is one such online game, activity, animation, or other resource for nearly every lesson — and many lessons have several of these.
  
  The Internet resources can be used in several ways: for some fun, for review, for extra practice of skills and concepts, and so on. Some of them are additional illustrations (such as animations) to help the student actually learn the concept.
  
  Most of these Internet links are also listed in the curriculum itself, in the introduction of each chapter. However, the lesson plan allows you to have the right ones just a click away for EACH lesson, instead of being a long list of links that you have to find in the book, and then choose from. The lesson plan essentially reduces the planning time for you! You can, of course, go to those links at other days also than when they are "assigned" in the plan.
  
  These links are and will be checked and updated at least once a year. You will be automatically notified of an update, and you can then choose if you want to apply the update to the software.
