5 Fun Online Math Homeschool Curriculum Courses

“But….how will you teach them if you aren’t with them? What about the hard subjects like MATH?!”

Great questions. It wasn’t until I returned to working outside the home that I realized how vital online tools really were in our homeschool.

For us, it just works.

And when something works you stick with it.

When my daughter informed me that Easy Peasy Math was no longer working for her we started hunting for a new program that would. Something she could do without me standing right beside her. We wanted something online, with videos, that was fun and yet easy for me to see the progress she was making.

*This post was sponsored by Homeschool Buyers Co-op. All opinions are my own. See my full disclosure policy for more details.

A few months ago I realized that even though I live in Canada I could buy from Homeschool Buyers Co-op and save money on my online curriculum.

The Homeschool Buyers Co-op is known for having an award-winning selection of math products, including core curriculum, supplemental, practice programs, struggling learner programs, and games.

On math curriculum alone you can save up to 67% off. These are digital products or online homeschool curriculum therefore there were no shipping charges. I didn’t have to worry about the border fees that can sometimes kill a “sale”. Win:Win!

Here are just 5 of the online math homeschool curriculum we looked at. Be sure to check out the whole collection.

Warning: Homeschool Buyers Co-op uses a lot of videos! Which is a great way to get an inside look at the program however if you are reading this at work or happen to have your volume up you *might* want to adjust your volume. 😉

IXL Online Math:

We used this program off and on over the last few years. It was one of the programs I had my daughter test during our last month of school to see if it worked for us. I loved the idea of making practice seem like play. School should be fun, don’t you think?

A few key features are:

• Comprehensive coverage of K-12 math curriculum. You also get access to hundreds of English language arts skills for grades K-12 and hundreds of Science & Social Studies skills for grades 2-8.
• Unlimited access to all grade levels
• Questions that adapt to your child’s ability, increasing in difficulty as they improve
• Colorful and diverse practice formats – from type-in answers to story problems and interactive graphing
• Immediate feedback and question-specific explanations
• Weekly e-mail updates and detailed online reports these reports are great for busy parents! 
• Awards and printable certificates to celebrate learning milestones
• iPad app for mobile math practice – this was a huge thing for my family! 

One thing to be aware of the iPad app only works for Math. They are currently working to adapt the skills from Science and Social Studies to the iPad app and expect to have them ready to add by the end of the year. I always recommend reading the reviews to see if this is a good fit for your child.

Knowre

We are using this program for both of the kids, you can read my full review here.

A few key features are:

• Walk Me Through: This is my favorite feature that supports students as they solve problems. With a click of a button, you get the problem broken down step-by-step, mimicking the way a teacher would work with a student one-on-one.  Students who practice with Walk Me Through double their chance of success when attempting new skills!
• A learning map outlines the content and sequence, enabling students to navigate the curriculum easily, engaging students in their math learning.
• Built-in Reward System: Students earn stars and coins which help to motivate and engage them and make math learning more fun.
• iPad app that supports handwriting recognition and has an onscreen scratch pad.
• Progress and Achievement: Parents can log into their student’s account to view the progress reports for each curriculum’s chapter and lesson, and click into each lesson index card to view performance by a question.
