Description and Features

Bridges the gap between computation and mathematical reasoning for higher grades and top test scores.

Description and Features

Forget boring math lessons and dreaded drill sheets.  This fun, colorful 448-page book uses engaging lessons with easy-to-follow explanations, examples, and charts to make sixth grade mathematical concepts easy to understand.  It can be used as a textbook or a comprehensive workbook with your textbook to teach the math skills and concepts that students are expected to know in sixth grade—and several concepts normally taught in seventh grade.  This book emphasizes problem-solving and computation to build for success in higher-level math and math assessments.

Every lesson is followed with a variety of fun, colorful activities to ensure concept mastery.  The lessons and activities spiral slowly, allowing students to become comfortable with concepts, but also challenging them to continue building their problem-solving skills.  This book teaches more than mathematical concepts; it teaches mathematical reasoning, so students learn to devise different strategies to solve a wide variety of math problems.  It is written to the standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.

I love the workbook style that doesn’t require constant planning

For most of the past six years I’ve used Mathematical Reasoning as our core math book in homeschooling. I’m a very open and go teacher so I love the workbook style that doesn’t require constant planning and gathering materials. My children love the colors, images, and varied format of each page. There are usually not a lot of problems per page which may or may not be a benefit depending on how your child handles the concept. If they always need a large amount of repetition to retain a concept this may not be your best option. In general there are enough problems for my kids to practice but it’s short enough to their level that they don’t get bored or burnt out.

My homeschool son is loving this book

My homeschool son is loving this book for his 6th grade math curriculum. Every page is full of color that engages him a variety of mathematical and logic problems. The worksheets not only teach math concepts, but how math is applied to life, like today we counted our breaths to calculate how many we take in a given period of time. The pages are rarely dull sheets of just math problems. Many have incorporated Science facts and logic problems. It’s working better and is a lot more engaging than any other math curriculum we’ve tried. To add fun and increase his speed in doing math, he gives me a problem from the book and we each work it, racing to finish first. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone dissatisfied with their current curriculum.

Last year I struggled with my daughter's math. She never complained about school work, except when it came time for math. We were using the same math program we have always used so I wanted to stick with it. It ended up discouraging her so I spent this past summer seeking out something that was high quality, yet a different approach to what I had been using. A friend showed me your Mathematical Reasoning™ books and I gave them a try. We are now halfway through this current school year and the difference is night and day. What was like 'pulling teeth' is now fun to her and she can concretely see and express how useful math is to her in her daily life.

As a teacher I like the problem solving activities as these could be used over again or with several students in the classroom.

As a math instructor, I am so happy that it looks like I may have a math-brain in my family after all! He asks to do his math school work (Mathematical Reasoning book) every day!

My son hated math. I saw your curriculum and gave it a try. Wow, what a great fit for my son! Your Mathematical Reasoning curriculum gave him a way to learn math that made sense to him. Thank you!

Mathematical Reasoning presents math in a way that makes it not only simple to learn, but also practical to apply to everyday circumstance (obviously making math more meaningful to him).

It has been so good for her because it requires her to think! Sometimes she would get frustrated, but the material was engaging and it kept her motivated to try and figure it out.

I really like that there is a lot of life application, logic and critical thinking sprinkled throughout the book. Lessons do not appear overwhelming or take hours to complete. In fact, most pages take just a few minutes to complete. There is a lot of colorful visual appeal as well, without appearing too childish for these upper elementary kids.
