Kindergarten Math With Confidence Bundle: Instructor Guide & Student Workbook

Absolutely amazing!! My son disliked math during school/kindergarten. After using this Math book, he just fell in love with math! He enjoyed the game-like lessons, and I as a teacher/parent appreciated the easy to follow instructions. One of the things I really like about this book is that money is introduced quite early in the book, and it adds on every lesson. It both Mastery & spiral. My son never quite understood how to use the different kinds of coins before using this textbook, but now it comes so easily for him. It’s much more affordable than Dimensions math & easy to implement/follow for the instructor, and kids will definitely have fun! My kiddo might need additional practice using IXL or Math mammoth for more practice, but totally worth it! I decided to switch from Dimensions Math for next year!

Our first year homeschooling. I love that this program is open and go and relies heavily on games and activities. It makes math teaching easy and engaging for my child. My kindergartener loved the hands on stuff especially money, shapes, and the adding and subtracting games. I will most likely use this again when my 3 year old gets to kindergarten.

As a homeschooling mom who wastes so much money finding the right curriculum that works for my child, I can say that I simply LOVE this kindergarten math book set. When my little was in preschool, we began working in this book. Now we're continuing where we left off for the rest of kindergarten year. My now 5 year old knows how to do mental math, adding to 10 with a combination of 2 different numbers, all from learning how to read a 10 stick from instruction out of this book. The parent guide is very comprehensive without being intimidating or daunting. Each lesson is short, engaging and both me and my 5 year old enjoy pulling it out for our math lessons. Thank you, Kate Snow! My very active 5 year old is learning valuable math skills and sitting still to complete the short games/activities. The lessons in the student workbook take us less than 5 minutes to complete, and my child is still retaining what he learned in previous lessons. I'm tempted to go ahead and buy the first grade level just so I can admire what is to come! There should be more awareness of this awesome math instruction. It's so affordable and gives the child plenty opportunity to grasp specific skills before jumping into a new concept. If you're pondering what math to incorporate in your kindergartener's schooling, try Kindergarten Math with Confidence first and avoid other busywork workbooks or those expensive brands that risk not keeping your child engaged.

i love how the teachers book tells you what to say for each lesson! starts out slowly and really gets there understanding of number down. love the activities for each lesson so it’s not just workbook math! you do need some supplies but i’ve been able to substitute a lot of them with stuff around the house. for example instead of using counters i’ve used googley eyes, paper clips, coins literally anything. also comes with ways to make other supplies at the back of the book (the shapes and ten frame that are used) it’s recommended for 5-6 year olds but my 4 year old has been doing just fine (had a preschool level understanding of numbers and counting before starting) and loves math “class”

I bought this math curriculum after way too much research and determining it looked to be the best choice for my kid lol we haven't really dug into it yet beyond the first few lessons but ive been researching and planning in advance for this fall. There is a group on Facebook for questions and support and I just saw a post about a misprint issue, it goes page 383 then 390 and then 385 and then back in order. Luckily like others shared my copy has a photo copied page of page 384 the missing page inserted where it should be. The company did comment and say they would be more than happy to send any missing pages to anyone who needed it. They do actively participate in the group and there is lots of support and suggestions to help parents who use this curriculum which is wonderful!

We’ve been using a popular curriculum and it’s all over the board and gives the children no time to absorb the material before flying to a completely unrelated topic for the next lesson (G&B). I finally got fed up and started looking for something that gives kids time to soak up a concept but also is not a full-on mastery style teaching method. This was recommended and I figured I couldn’t really go wrong with the price point. I am kicking myself for waiting so long to switch. This is amazing! The instructors guide gives the parent so many useful tools to help the child learn. My kids love that it engages with them physically and mentally (I.e. jumping a a certain number of times). We did a year of the other curriculum and seem to have little retention, but have retained almost every concept and now math has been brought up during our day to day life by the kids. I found better prices elsewhere after ordering and you cannot return to Amazon once the plastic wrap is off, but I don’t regret purchasing at the price or a lack of returns for how great this is.

We love Math with Confidence. I have taught this to two children now. The lessons are easy to teach and the work is fun for the kids. It is amazing to see your children learn math and be excited to learn it. My 4 year old was able to understand and keep up with this curriculum. I have taught the 1st grade one as well and will be using the 2nd grade curriculum this next year. My children have a good understanding of the math concepts taught in these books.

SO MUCH more than I released! Bought this because I saw a review on youtube(not sure the channel). There’s so much more than I anticipated, in a good way!! My daughter did elearning public school for the first 1/2 of the school year however we decided to take her out and homeschool her. This is the math curriculum I choose and I was able to pinpoint exactly where to start based on the problems he’s having by looking through the unit checkpoints. They have a “what to expect at the end of this unit” list, a “is your child ready to move on” list, then and MOST helpful “ what to do if your child needs more practice” list based on the areas that directs you back to the activities/ lesson that will help them! The lessons are layed out nicely with a review/ warmup, activities , questions you can ask, it also has a suggested book to read and match the chapters and of course which workbook page it goes with. I started my daughter off easy today with just doing some of the review worksheets from what she had learned from the first half of her kindergarten year. She loved the page I gave her and sat and did 10 in total of the workbook pages. So refreshing to see her love learning again, the elearning was really making her dread to do her work. I honestly wondered why I needed an instruction guide for this.....NOW I understand it’s loaded with useful information, and activities on how to better help your child and of course make it fun!!! So please with this I cannot say enough about it.. I’m happy the release dates for future years are planned. As of now I WILL be preordering 1st grade math with confidence!!

I like that it presents math in another form.

The content is creative and it encourages the kids to utilise the skills of subitizing as well.

We dabbled with a couple of other curriculums before giving this one a try with our reception aged daughter. She has loved it and has been excited to do the activities each day. It feels fairly rigorous too - some topics haven't been covered by her peers in school yet and we are moving on to grade 1. Hoping the following books are as motivating for her as this has been!

I absolutely love Kate Snow's math curriculum. I look forward to doing the grade 1 curriculum with my 6 year old as well! My only wish is I would have started this Kindergarten math earlier! My daughter understands everything very well and enjoys doing the lessons, as long as we keep it to no more than 3 a day (which makes sense to me!). I highly recommend this curriculum to anyone who is looking into homeschooling. It is so simple to follow along and teach. An open and go program, only needing a few basic items and lots of household items you will already have on hand!

I am so grateful to have found this curriculum after much research. I bought kindy, year 1 and 2. One of my daughters was really starting to resent maths when I was trying another really well rated curriculum, but she wasn't understanding many of the concepts and was getting very frustrated with herself. This curriculum has a very practical approach to helping students understand various concepts and includes fun games so that the child can retain the information learned. Both my daughters now look forward to doing their maths lessons and feel like they are achieving success when completing their workbooks. It's such a nice change to see them really enjoy maths.
