The Master Books’ Principles of Mathematics curriculum integrates a biblical worldview with mathematics! Year 1 of a 2-year course (year 2 sold-separately), this text is designed to give students an academic and spiritual mathematical foundation through building thinking and problem-solving skills while also teaching them how a biblical worldview affects their approach to mathematical concepts. They'll learn how math can be seen as a way of exploring and describing consistencies God created and sustains and will see how math is not a neutral subject but rather reveals the glory of God.
Designed for independent learners, this curriculum is designed for students to complete on their own. Chapters cover place value, mental math, multiplication & division, fractions & factoring, decimals, ratios and proportions, percents, negative numbers, statistics and graphing, measuring distance, perimeter, exponents, square roots, solid objects and volume, angles, and more through easy-to-read explanations, example problems, and side-bar notes.
The teacher's guide contains the practice worksheets, quizzes, and tests, as well as two suggested schedules (standard 1-year and accelerated 1-semester) and an answer key to all problems given. One worksheet for each lesson in each chapter is provided.
