Mbtp math for 5-7,6-8

Super excited about the new math levels coming up! Does anyone know when there will be samples of the student pages up on the website?

Hi Lindsay,

We do now have a sample of our Age 5-7 level available on the website in our sample center.

Let me know if you have any additional questions. We are working hard to put the finishing touches on this so we can make it available for purchase.

Any updates on when 6-8 math will be ready? Only one of my children is homeschooled so we follow the public school calendar, and they go back on August 6. At the very least, do you know already how many lessons/instructional days it will have? My concern is that if we start too late, my daughter wouldn't be finished with her school year by the time my son's summer break starts, which is not going to go over well haha.

Hi Apollina,

We are going to be releasing Age 6-8 level math on our website in the next few days. We are waiting on the final pieces of art to be finished before printing, and I anticipate it will ship around August 14th. I am very sorry about the delay in getting this out to you guys, but the curriculum looks fantastic. We are very excited to get it into your hands.

Is this Math for 5-7 a full curriculum or is it just a supplement?

Hi Marie,

The math for Age 5-7 and Age 6-8 is a comprehensive full-year curriculum. We used the Age 5-7 level with my daughter this past year as it was being developed, and I think families are going to really like it. Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Can you let me know what the manipulatives are for the math package? 5-7 that is

Hi Marie,

Your timing is uncanny. I literally updated that on the website within the last 15 minutes. You can see it here:

Age 5-7 Math Materials Kit

When we worked on this level with my 5 year-old this past year, we didn't have the materials kit, and it was quite the challenge to gather them all. The list of items is substantial. (Note that there are currently duplicate items in the list, but we are working to get those removed.)

Let me know if you have any additional questions.

I took a look thanks! Just fyi from ky end there is a lot of repetition that you may want to fix, the word abacus was in there about 5 times

Thanks Marie. We have an update coming to the website in the next couple of days that will get rid of those duplicates. Sorry for any confusion.

Is there any update on when the 6-8 curriculum will ship? I assume it didn't ship August 14 or we would have gotten a shipment notice. We homeschool through a PS program and start soon, so need to have it to start the school year. Thanks!

Hi Maureen,

We will begin shipping the Age 6-8 Math curriculum on Thursday. I am sorry for the delay on the shipment of this curriculum, but I am sure that you will be very happy with your decision to go with it this year. Our new math curriculum is as good as anything we have ever done.

Disregard this comment, I found a table of contents online, so don't need a scope and sequence. I'd delete this comment if I could.

No worries Maureen. I have actually intended to post a more detailed scope and sequence online at some point in the near future. Here is a list of the details that will be on the page. It should be available within the next week or so.

I'm just wondering if the math shipped last week like it was supposed to? We're level 6-8. We're going to need to turn in work samples in a couple of weeks...

It started shipping last week, and we should get them all shipped out by later today. Sorry about the delay in the shipping of the math program. Let me know if you need anything.
