Core Maths Curriculum

My Homeschool don’t provide a mathematics program from Year 3 onwards. We know that parents want to pick a program that suits their child’s ability and is also easy and affordable for parents to teach. There are many maths programs around recommended for home educators and whilst we haven’t used them all in our own homeschools, but we have used quite a few. Here are the main three recommended programs we suggest:

      - Maths Online (we give you a 50 % discount)

      - Pr1me Maths (we give you a 10%)

      - Singapore Maths
