Jaden's Math






Jaden is working on addition and subtraction using cuisenaire rods (also a Montessori method). I got her the rods & picked up a first grade drill book from Rod & Staff. She can do these math problems by herself, but of course, it is more fun with me there to cheer her on :0) This is here drill book: http://www.rodandstaffbooks.com/item/1-13171-3/?list=Rod_and_Staff_Grade_1

Morgan is doing the preschool series of books from Rod & Staff. They have a great selection of affordable & educational workbooks. All of Mogan's R&S books were less than $3!! They are PACKED with activities!! You can find the preschool section here: http://www.rodandstaffbooks.com/list/Rod_and_Staff_Preschool/

They have enjoyed these books as well:

Emma is teaching herself addition and subtraction too! (Since we're unschooling math, we don't teach her, she is learning on her own.) We got her an abacus from IKEA, she loves it. :)
