Course Description: Let’s explore nature and see where we can find math in God’s creation. We will explore various nature topics including plants, seeds, trees, animals, the seasons and more. While we explore the wonders of creation, we will also work on building foundational math skills for kindergarten through second grade. The focus will be on developing a strong number sense to aid in mastering addition and subtraction strategies. This class can be a supplement to any math curriculum you will be doing at home, giving your student practice with developing a strong number sense with ten frames, number bonds, number lines, and more to build their confidence and skills in addition and subtraction.
