School’s out — and what could be more fun in the lazy, hazy days of summer than to study math? Check out these articles from Maria Miller of Homeschool Math Blog:

Maria has plenty more on her Homeschool Math website. Whether your student needs remediation or enrichment, you’re sure to find something useful.

And Free Worksheets, Too
As the author of the Math Mammoth series of workbooks, Maria writes, “My aim is to help parents and teachers teach math so our children and students can really understand what is going on.”

Unfortunately, Kitten is just starting 4th grade, so it will be quite awhile before I’m ready to write the review.
In the meantime, how can you tell whether the Math Mammoth books are right for your students? Maria has made it easy by offering 280 free worksheets and sample pages:
