Math Lessons for a Living Education: Level 5

Customer Reviews

Good workbook Review by Janet

What did you think?

I love the color and the practical applications but my girls needed more instruction and repetition. They were not grasping some concepts at all. Might be they were not ready to grasp the new lessons. (Posted on 7/21/2018)

My son loved this! Review by Mary

What did you think?

We had recently switched from online schooling when we purchased the MFALE level 5 book, and my son instantly grew a liking to this material. He flew through it and picked up new concepts much easier than before. He’s super excited to start level 6 in a couple weeks.

My favorite thing about this curriculum is that he can do most of it independently, my son was 10 when we started level 5 and it was a perfect fit for him. (Posted on 7/14/2018)

I thought my daughter would complain Review by SARAH

What did you think?

I just switched to MLFLE this year after coming from a computer based program. My daughter was able to score well, but I realized that she wasn't comprehending what was being taught. So I decided to take her back a grade and start working over the summer.

I have had no complaints, and she loves that tactile style of learning math. I'm so happy we made the switch! (Posted on 6/5/2018)

He understands! Review by Betsy

What did you think?

I had tried several math curriculums with my oldest (oldest kid is the Guinea pig!) and he was hating math. New concepts weren't sinking in, and I felt like I had to be with him for every problem. I switched to this, and he's understanding now! This week he was doing subtraction with fractions that needed to be adjusted to have a common denominator and the top fraction turned into an improper fraction, and he was able to do it himself! His only complaint is that the story is boring. I take it as a win! (Posted on 6/1/2018)

5 stars!! Review by Heather

What did you think?

We started this math in Aug of 2017. We had just completed level 4 in May 2017. My children enjoyed it and it helped math make sense to them. MLFLE has completely transformed my children's view of math and in the words of my daughter "it's the only math that doesn't make me want to punch somebody in the face"! It's a winner!

Loved it! Review by Amy

What did you think?

We combined level 4 and level 5 with my 10yr old son. We came out of a private Christian school and fell in love with masterbooks right away. Math was always a "chore" and now my son loves to do math. It's real world and the stories are great. Love everything about masterbooks. (Posted on 5/9/2018)

Wish we would’ve switched sooner! Review by Sommer

What did you think?

We love MLFLE! I wish we would have switched sooner. The layout and instructions are easy for the student to understand. I love that it has just the right amount of copywork for reinforcement and the stories are engaging. We love the creativity it fosters when it comes time for word problem narrations.

solid Review by Dawn

What did you think?

My oldest isn't necessarily a math person, so he is not jumping up and down when it's Math time. However, this program has benefited him very much in that it provides solid teaching and reviews enough so that he is feeling equipped in Math. The stories and activities help to break up the not so exciting part of math (not so exciting to him at least). Honestly, I was feeling like it wasn't equipping him enough, but when I had him take a test and do some comparisons, he was right where he should be, if not more. All four of my children are using this, and it's the first math program that I didn't feel like I needed to change to something else. (Posted on 4/17/2018)

Awesome for My Struggling Student Review by Jessica

What did you think?

My 10 year old has struggled with math for a few years. After trying several different curriculums, I am so thankful to have found this one. She is not only less frustrated, but she is thriving, retaining new info, and applying herself for the first time ever within the scope of "math". Can't say enough good things about this!

Worth it Review by Jennifer

What did you think?

Fantastic math curriculum. My daughter retained what she learned and moved easily into level 6. Wish we had started using this sooner, it has been such a blessing! (Posted on 4/11/2018)

Easy to understand Review by Renee

What did you think?

Both of my daughters ( level 1&5 ) have math phobia, they cringe every time we do math. Since we started using this curriculum, they don't mind or give me hard time. Its easy to follow and understand. I'm one happy homes school mom. (Posted on 3/9/2018)

Excellent Math Program!! Review by Karen

What did you think?

We LOVE Math for a Living Education. Currently we are using Level 5 and Level 3. From the stories that relate math to real life to the practice problems woven in the lessons, it is a "no tears" math curriculum! My kids are learning at their level and enjoying it. Open and go, AND affordable....just what we need in the curriculum maze that is out there! (Posted on 9/7/2017)
