MathTacular!: Homeschool Math Curriculum
Unbelievably Understandable Mathâ„¢
Of course math, like reading, is necessary for adult independence. And, of course, you'd prefer your children to enjoy their learning.
Not feeling confident of either your children's mathematical comprehension or of their joy in the process?
Enter MathTacular!®
Join Justin, with help from his friend Amber, as they explain math concepts in fun ways, and creative stories. The series starts with counting, and then progresses up through word problems, fractions, and algebra. Your purchase comes with both a DVD and digital access!
The DVDs feature short segments that allow children and teachers to easily skip to specific concepts for quick review or practice (though children also love to watch their MathTacular! videos straight through again and again). You can also watch them online!
The dozens of short segments in each DVD -- which you can also enjoy online -- use unexpected and creative props to explain math concepts. When learning about pairs, for example, in MathTacular!, Justin and Amber race to put on socks, leg warmers, shoes, gloves, and clip-on earrings.
These quirky, cheerful, creative shorts make math understandable, enjoyable, and fun.

The kids LOVE them, and they teach real math concepts in a very engaging way." -Crystal K Crisis has hit the MathTacular gang: Amber Waves's precious prize pig has been porknapped! The dreaded Word Puzzler has captured the poor pet and left a string of word problems behind as clues. Fortunately, Detective Justin Time has experience with this sort of thing. With logical, simple steps, he and Amber Waves tackle one math puzzle after another. Every word problem they face in their sleuthing appears right in the Workbook as well! The Answer Key provides each solution. As our heroes progress in the case, the word problems get trickier. But they gain the skills to press on (as will your children). Even so, will Detective Justin and Amber Waves ever find the pork-napped pig? This hilarious adventure gives your children the tools to face pesky word problems with confidence. Unique among the popular MathTacular series, MathTacular4 covers a very wide scope of mathematical skills as it focuses on one goal: cracking the code of word problems. The problems start with simple addition. And even if your kids aren't ready for the more advanced skills (like fractions and algebra) at the end of the video, they'll love watching Amber Waves and Justin Time chase the case to the end. More about the Workbook with Tool Kit and Answer Key The MathTacular4 DVD will automatically stop after our heroes introduce each new word problem (unless you set it to play straight through). With the workbook in hand, your kids can solve the puzzle right then and there. With the push of a button, your children can restart the videos or DVD and watch Justin Time and Amber Waves carefully work through the solution. Your children can solidify each new concept with 5 extra practice problems. Mathematical skills used in the word problems start with simple addition and work up to ratios, fractions and algebra. The Answer Key is a parent's dream. You'll find answers to each problem in the workbook and see all the steps on the way to that answer. And since there's more than one way to stuff a taco you'll even see alternate ways to solve some problems. If your kids get stuck on a problem, a quick peek inside the Answer Key will help them get started or see where they went wrong. Finally, with MathTacular4, word problems are fun, practical ... and unbelievably understandable! This set with the DVD, Workbook with Tool Kit, and Answer Key is great for grades 6 and up. (The DVD + Digital Access alone is great for grades 4 and up.) DVD video + online access (about 2.5 hours) Learn more about the MathTacular 4 Package »
