We just ordered Math 3 and are so excited! Our third year with The Good and the Beautiful math. After trying every other program out there over 18 years of homeschooling, this is our very favorite! Thank you!

We are using Level 1 and Level 3. Yesterday my 10 year old son who has been using Teaching Textbooks for the past 2 years had trouble with division. So we opened the Level 4 and did lesson 6 which is a review of Division. He absolutely loved it!! Especially the video! He asked me this morning to switch him to TGTB for his math!!🤗. Thank you so much for this awesome curriculum!! I am so happy that I purchased all the levels!!❤️. We can’t wait for Levels 6-8!

I'm using level 2 with my gifted almost 5 year old boy. I was very sceptical about Simply Good and Beautiful Math, and we have started with Go Math but didn't like it, then we moved to Math in Focus for the first grade. But my son was not very happy about it. It is good program, but as my son is younger, his attention span is short, he was getting bored. So we started TGTB, it is less behind than MiF, but we are not rushing. I started TGTB math, because I didn't want my son to get frustrated. We are on lesson 20 already and very happy. It is not difficult. There is enough practice and revision for him, it is not boring! So for us it is working well. My son gets concepts easily, he is doing lessons in 15 minutes and is not getting bored and frustrated. May be for someone else it won't work as well

We are absolutely thrilled with the new math. We did like the the old one too but this one is so wonderful! I have a daughter in 6th who is doing math 5 and within one week was telling neighbors how much she loves math. (she hated it before!). I am only sad that once she finishes this level I will have to find something else because I don't think we can wait for 6 to come out before moving on. It is a fantastic program!

My kids love these new math programs! Do wish there were videos for the younger grades, not because the work is hard but because Big Brother has videos they want videos. Likewise he is a little envious of their little wooden boxes though! But they love the art and activities/games sprinkled throughout and I love that the lessons are to the point and easy to teach 👍

After being hesitant to switch from the old math to the new math I'm really glad I switched!! I'm doing 2 & 4 this year and my 4th grader loves the videos. I love that we're done quicker since I can teach the 2nd grader at the same time. I do kinda miss out on teaching the 4th grader lesson but I'm nerdy and watch the video anyway so that I know. I also REALLY love the separate mental math booklet. The new math definitely seems more straight forward & less lengthy which I'm really loving. It was a little over whelming last year with the games in the lessons requiring so many pieces & referring to the instruction booklet for the games so I like that these games are way more condensed 😍
I use TGTB with every subject and I love it and I recommend it to everyone interested in home schooling. My only major complaint is the use of King James scripture. I'm really surprised such a difficult version is used & I really wish NIV was used because we don't understand KJV so we have to translate elsewhere. Not really relevant to the math but now you'll know when you add everything else on cuz if you love the math like I do you won't stop with just the math.

Homeschool mom of 4 boys here...using Levels 2 and 4 with my two younger boys. We absolutely LOVE this math!

We just ordered the K math. I'll be using them starting in jan 2022 with my 4 yr old son. I am so excited because he is very hands on and will love the box, especially the wooden cars. We just finished book 1 and 2 of mathematical reasoning and he breezed through both of them. I am very happy that common core is not used as the base of this math program, and it was a factor in my decision to choose good and beautiful math. I also believe mental math and memorization is the best and most efficient way to learn math also. I am very excited to receive this curriculum. Thank you for all you do.

Loving levels 1 and 2 so far, getting ready to start level 4 when another child finishes up the old level 3. The price point is amazing, and free PDFs are icing on the cake.

[DanielaNoel]

We are loving k and level 5. I know level 6-8 are coming in the next couple of years. Hopefully level 6 will be out next year :-) But, Are there plans for higher levels of math pre-algebra, algebra etc..

[mountaincountrytraditions]

We are using levels 1, 3, and 5 this year and we have LOVED it!

We love Simply Good and Beautiful Math Level 2!

[EnlightenedEndeavor]

My kids love your math 5 and math 2. We use about 3-4 different math curriculum. This year I said it is either I use your curriculum or Im just giving up on schooling with any curriculum. My son who does math 2, he said the lesson is very interesting, short. But at the same time I see his progress just after 7 lessons. Now he can count by 50th, and spell 13-15, he loves use money from box, the most important he begin to understand concept behind math and numbers. And it is only 7 lessons went by. Im so glad he started to have interest in math. Just one lesson a day, we do math and english 6 days a week. We are bilingual. But we do other subjest 4 days a week and lots of reading in English, Russian and Espanol. He is 6 y.o. My 10 years y.o said she loves your math video lesson, all of my 3 kids watching this video. I was homeschooling for about 13 years now. Thank you for your updated version.

I purchased levels 1, 3, and 5. My youngest is finishing up the old level K (about 50 lessons left) and will then begin level 1. My 3rd grader is really enjoying level 3. He loves the puzzles and games. I enjoy the simple straightforward lessons. The layout is much better than in my old level K book. My oldest is in 6th and she liked the look of the videos, but she didn't love the book work or relearning topics she's mastered. We were using Life of Fred while waiting for your math to release and she's begged me to return to it, so we did. I put away her barely used level 5 books for when my son is in 5th grade. Overall I love the program. It's easy and thorough.

We’re so enjoying Math 2! My son just finished up his first assessment of the year, and I’m amazed at how much he retained. The spiral method is definitely something that is working for us🙌🏻

Random question:
Any word on another Christmas for 2021? We missed out on the Nordic box last year 😩

[noelfigueira]

I agree that this is a game changer for math being taught in the home. My girls love this! They have flourished and enjoyed the lessons. They love the beauty in the lessons, the way it's taught to them through the videos, and are excited to see what's next to learn in their books. My one question would be, is there gong to be an advancement in higher math than Level 5? I have one girl who is finally loving math because of it, and is unfortunately on Level 5 this year. Which means she'll need to go somewhere else next year. Do you have any plans for moving forward?

[MariaMaria-srzg]

We are on lesson 29 in the old Level K math. Should we complete that or purchase the new level K?

[Raising_Arrowsx]

Are there any plans for a Math 6? If not can you recommend a Math for a 6th grader after using the good and the beautiful.

[efehr]

Just curious why specifically only gr1-5 pdfs are free... I mean they're a good price otherwise so no big deal, but curious like I said

[sandyj]

Looking for kindergarten/1st grade math and reading workbooks! Really interested in the good and the beautiful!!!
