First Month Math

Like I said before, we were to do lessons 7-12 in MUS Alpha. Instead Harry has done lessons 1-9. We started at the beginning because it's easier to understand how the lessons sound and are presented starting at the beginning.

We've also done a bunch of math computer games and practices. The best one is Math Compass. It's a no-frills program of drills that Harry just loves! It's hilarious how into he gets.

We also made a great big cube with stickers on each side from 1-6. (Think great big die.) We throw it twice and add the numbers together. Low-tech, but a lot of fun (at least until someone loses an eye).

So that's math for the month. I actually think Harry's got his addition facts down pretty well, I just want to cement them into him a little more before we go onto subtraction.
