Charlotte Mason’s beginning math lessons seem to be tailor-made for an early elementary child.
Lessons are mainly oral and are carefully graduated, with your child answering small word problems within their understanding (no reading required). They work out the problems in a hands-on way using a variety of common, everyday objects. This straightforward but interesting teaching guides your children to make discoveries on their own.
A grid notebook is used as the student’s math notebook, in which they record the math concepts that were discovered. Writing is used sparingly, so the effort of handwriting does not overshadow the math concept being grasped.
The progression of the lessons is adjusted to the pace that fits your child best, so you can go slowly enough to build understanding and comfort in the math concepts but not so slowly that the child becomes bored.
Short, lively lessons reinforce a habit of concentrated attention while not overtaxing the child’s ability to sit still. Each day’s work goes no longer than 20 minutes, with fifteen minutes focused on the newest math concept and the remaining five for review.
The lessons in The Charlotte Mason Elementary Arithmetic Series, Book 1, follow Charlotte Mason’s philosophy and methods for teaching math as outlined above. In Book 1 you will find
In The Charlotte Mason Elementary Arithmetic Series, Book 1, your child will gain a solid understanding of these arithmetic concepts.

We have switched to this math curriculum for my middle child and we love how simple and beautiful it is to implement. It is not flashy as many modern math programs are, but it gives the child a strong understanding of number sense, comprehension and problem solving. This particular book builds a relationship between the teacher & student, therefore work is not completed independently…but the time investment is 15-20 minutes per day.
