After Completing Levels A and B---Recommended For:

• 1st Grade
• Advanced K5's who know the 1-10 addition and subtraction facts well.

IMPORTANT: The charts and visual aids used for all three levels are in the Christ-Centered Math Master Guide (Part 500).

Complete Math Kit C includes:

• Christ-Centered Math Lessons: Level C with Workbook Answer Key (Part 540)
• Christ-Centered Math Workbook: Level C (Part 541)
• Interlocking Base 10 Blocks Set (100-one's, 10-ten's rods, 3-100 flats---Part 542)

Skills Covered at Math Level C:

• Place Value (1’s, 10’s, 100’s Places)
• 2- and 3-digit Addition/Subtraction (No Renaming)
• Greater Than/Less Than to 999
• Identifying Missing Numbers in Sequence
• Counting by 1's, 2’s, 3’s, 4’s, 5’s, and 10’s
• Numeration (Reading and Writing Numbers)
• Adding Multiple Numbers
• Addition/Subtraction Families 11-18
• Word Problems and Equation Theory

Pacing Suggestions:

Typically, studying place value (1’s, 10’s, 100’s places) plus the difficult teen combinations (11-18 addition/subtraction facts) is primarily recommended for 1st grade. However, some Advanced K5/B1st students have been known to finish Levels A, B, and C in a normal school year (or shortly thereafter). For the best results, teach in sequence according to whatever pacing lovingly challenges God-given capabilities.

Teaching Math Level C:

After teaching the daily lesson in Math Lessons C (Part 540), refer to the Workbook Answer Key (Part II of Math Lessons C) for additional teaching tips to complete each day's Math Workbook C (Part 541) assignment.

Math Level C begins with the exciting study of place value which reveals that just as God designed a special dwelling place for Himself among men (the Tabernacle), so He designed a special dwelling place for numbers. As the instruction on place value expands, the verses in the workbook lead up to the wonderful truth that Jesus Christ is our True Tabernacle---the blessed eternal dwelling place for all born-again believers! Hallelujah!

The place value study is excellent preparation for teaching the 11-18 addition/subtraction facts through a Base 10 system. Ten is the number in Scripture that most Bible scholars believe signifies perfection or completion of divine order. It implies nothing is lacking; the cycle is complete. Because our number system is composed of cycles of 10, the 10 Moth Family (taught in Levels A and B:1) now becomes even more important as an aid to helping children understand the difficult teen combinations. Step-by-step, through various demonstrations and hands-on exercises, young students will learn to master the 11-18 addition/subtraction families.
