Good morning, how are you? I wanted to bring you homeschool resources: math this morning. Because learning doesn’t have to end in Summer. Please take a look at the resources I’ve shared with you and let me know if you’ve used these resources with your students.
Math Mammoth has returned with savings of 40%, but only through 6/30! Created by Maria Miller, a math teacher, and passionate homeschool math advocate, Math Mammoth offers a comprehensive library of PDF math worktexts, workbooks, and complete math curriculum in CD or digital download formats.
PlaneMath.com: Airplane Math– Grades 5 & up, with parental supervision
This website offers free airplane and flight-themed activities that help students practice their math skills.
When you get to the site you will see a menu that includes:
- Applying Flying – Explore nine different lessons that require exercising your math skills to learn to fly a rescue helicopter, understand how planes lift off, fly a herd of buffalo to the prairie, and even build a kite!
- Pioneer Plane – Watch a movie about Amelia Earhart and then do an activity that reinforces what you’ve learned. Or visit the “Grab Bag” to learn some fascinating trivia facts about flight.
- Planemath Enterprises – Try your hand at designing airplanes after completing the eight training sessions in forces of flight, fuselage, airfoils, wing shape, propulsion, and more!
This is an innovative way to practice math and see its practical application in the world of flight.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
