Good morning, how are you? I wanted to share our series featuring Homeschool Resources: Math. Would you take a look at the website and let me know if you’ve used these Math resources with your students. Charlie and I haven’t had the opportunity to use any of the resources but I hope to soon.
MathHelp.com is a popular online video math curriculum that covers Pre-Algebra, Algebra I & II, Geometry as well as PSAT/NMSQT, SAT, and ACT math test prep, and access to tutoring for 5th and 6th-grade math.
