In Math Lessons for a Living Education: Level 5, students learn math through short, engaging stories that connect numbers to real life. As students follow the adventures of Charlie, Charlotte Natty, and Hairo, math concepts come alive. Through hands-on activities, colorful worksheets, copywork, oral narration, and practical application, young learners see that math truly matters.

Practice Makes Perfect: Level 5 builds on that foundation by providing just-right reinforcement for every lesson. With additional worksheets, manipulatives, and quizzes, students gain extra practice where they need it most—without turning math into drill-and-kill or busywork.

Together, these two complementary resources create a gentle yet thorough math program that supports both guided instruction and growing independence.

Math for every learning style
Review by JoyfulMommy
Our family has been using Math Lessons for A Living Education since our oldest was in first grade. It has been perfect for our family as it works for all different learning styles - from our artistic and nature-loving ones to more logical thinkers. The story line keeps their interest and brings math applications to life, while reinforcing godly character and worship of the Creator.

This series is designed to be developmentally appropriate, so you will see lighter work loads that build with each level (and graduates of this series are well-prepared for Principles of Mathematics). If we need extra practice with a concept, we pull in some pages from Practice Makes Perfect and the various activities help to reinforce what we are learning. Practice Makes Perfect has also been helpful to keep math skills sharp through the summer!

The only thing I wish were different is math facts memory work. I feel like the facts are introduced in kind of random order, and while there are a lot of prompts to review, it is easy to skip over them since it is not actually written into the curriculum. Obviously that responsibility falls on the teacher, but it would be helpful to have it more thoroughly incorporated. Overall though, I love this series and wish it had been around when I was a child!
Love the bundle!
Review by Julie
Our family has been using Math Lessons for a Living Education for the last 6 years and we love it! We always use the main text book during the school year and then use the practice book during the summer for review before we start the next level. We’re excited to see that these are offered as a bundle now! My boys enjoy that the lessons are short enough that they don’t get burnt out but theres enough review built into the book that they are able to get a concept down. The practice book helps to make sure there are no gaps in what they’ve learned during the year. We love that it is practical and can be applied to everyday life.

The level 5 practice book has been especially helpful this year as some of the math concepts are getting a bit more complex. My son appreciates some of the extra practice on some of the more challenging concepts!

Thank you for bundling these now Master Books!
Excellent
Review by Samantha
The Level 5 bundle combines instruction and additional practice available when they need it. It makes for a very well-rounded math program. It’s an excellent way to ensure my kids not only learn new concepts but also gain the repetition needed occasionally to truly master them.
Fits perfectly into the series!
Review by Michele
Math Level 5 fits nicely into the scope and sequence of the series. It also is a great stepping stone to Level 6. One of my favorite things is that it is intentional in the simplicity. I like that words are used to help engage both sides of a student's brain, pictures are used intentionally to draw focus, plenty of negative space on the page keeps students' minds from wandering, and exercises are applicable and pinpointed. The Practice Makes Perfect is a good mix of reinforcing the current Lesson and review of previous concepts, and very helpful to have at your fingertips for a student who needs more practice or something tangible and educational to do.
like peanut butter and jelly
Review by Barbara D
Both books are great, but together is a perfect match.
The student book is the main part and Practice makes perfect makes it even sweeter.
I can use the tests in PMP for record keeping, or many parts of PMP, while the bulk of the learning and work is in the student book.
My son did this level last year. Some days were concepts that were easier and we didn't need PMP, but those days that concepts were needing more practice I'm glad I had PMP to pull out extra practice, or to pull out pages of concepts he knew to give him confidence to go on.
A mini confession, I pushed my son onto level 6 before he was ready (my fault) and as a result we needed to step back into level 5. I used the PMP pages to test what we did and didn't know so I knew what to focus on teaching and what my son knew. Having the student book still handy was helpful to look back. In my goof, the bundle helped my son get back on track, without the extra workload. He's ready to go back into level 6 ready and with more confidence.
The lessons in PMP are based on what the student is covering in the student book, so they pair well, or is easy to refer back to when needing to do a quick refresh, or when using PMP to prevent the summer slide.
All you need in one bundle
Review by SB
All that you need for math level 5 in one place! Our family has enjoyed the Math Lessons for a Living Education curriculum. The weekly stories add interest and introduce math topics in a practical way. The lessons are short enough to not be overwhelming, and the spiral approach ensures that topics are reviewed often. We appreciate the way that math is taught from a Biblical worldview. Adding in the Practice Makes Perfect workbook gives a lot of flexibility for extra math practice where needed - or just for fun! The practice book also contains 4 quizzes meant to be used quarterly. The solutions are provided in the back of the book. Our family is thankful to have found a math curriculum that consistently works for us!
Ment to be
Review by Shannon
Im so glad Masterbooks finally put these two books together in a bundle! It just makes sense. I love the PMP book to allow extra practice where needed and I really appreciate the quarter tests in the practice workbook. MLFALE is an amazing math program! Win win all-round!
bundling is the way to go for hard concepts!
Review by Sara G
Math got a little tricky last year towards the end for my upcoming 5th grader, so I decided I would take it slower and order the practice makes perfect sheets to help the concepts stick. now they bundle it!

I love that there are lots of color by numbers with multiplication, story problem challenges, recipe conversion cards for fractions and dot to dots in the practice makes perfect book. There is at least one practice sheet for each lesson day in the MLFLE 5 workbook.

MLFLE does a really good job of keeping kiddos engaged with bite size lessons, but the practice sheet in the bundle can help give you peace of mind that your child understands the lesson. you can be sure that your kiddo has what they need to master that level.
