Target Audience and Course Requirements
5th Grade “Math Made Easy” was created in a systematic way of learning skills and intended for students who have successfully completed a 4th grade course of study. The program was designed to reflect on past learning through each module of study. It walks the student through all Operations, with multiple ways of solving problems being explained for each operation, giving students a chance to solve problems in a variety of ways, and use whatever works best for them.
Opportunity is provided to deepen Problem Solving Skills through a lesson dedicated to explaining a 4-step process. This enables the students to tackle any problem in a cohesive manner, while giving it real life application.
The Focus of instruction will narrow the scope of learning with deeper understanding of necessary skill. Coherence will link learning within the modules and across multiple grade levels. Rigor will provide conceptual understanding, procedural skill and fluency, and application of learned skills.

Closing Remarks
In conclusion, if you are looking for a comprehensive 5th grade math curriculum where lessons and reviews are provided in video format for every component of the lesson, then I encourage you to enroll your child today. The curriculum takes the burden off you, the parent or guardian. There is no need for you to correct anything on your own! I have done it for you. This is how I ran my classes for over 28 years, and how I set this comprehensive program up. I walk them through all required skills and provide support for each handout and assessment, all while weaving the skills to make math meaningful.
