Grade 12 Homeschool Curriculum

Developmental Mathematics is a number learning program that starts with counting, and guides the student into advanced math disciplines. It deals with numbers as they evolve. It presents the number as a concept, how it is read and written, and then teaches all facts and computational skills in which it is involved. When all work with a certain type of number is exhausted, a new type is brought into the focus of study.

Each fact or computation is presented as a problem to be solved, and then the student is guided to see, and participate in, how the fact is derived and how the computation is built. The learner is trained to use acquired knowledge in generating new knowledge, which is the essence of mathematical thinking. In this manner, the students knowledge is consolidated as a coherent body, rather than a collection of unrelated facts and skills.

Level 12 covers thousands and large numbers: concepts and skills. Student workbook only. Levels are not grade-specific.
