More About Our Fraction Workshop Homeschool Math Course

This 12-week Fraction Workshop homeschool math course is appropriate for ages 7 to 18, depending on skill level and need. The PFE (Parenting for Education) system of learning works on goals that recognize differences among learners. Therefore, math lessons are geared toward each student’s particular cognitive level. That is to say, a sixteen-year-old boy may never have learned or mastered basic fraction concepts, so he is hindered from grasping other math lessons because of it. That sixteen-year-old may need to engage in the same lessons as a seven-year-old learner.

The PFE Fraction Workshop begins with basic notions of the fraction in a living, learning environment. The course progresses to addition and subtraction of fractions by first handling multiplication and division of fractions.

Each week, two major homeschool math lessons are presented as part of one printable unit (i.e., Week One has one printable that contains two lessons, etc.). Students are expected to work on each lesson for 30 minutes or longer during two days of learning, then review and summarize learning on a third day of the week, using knowledge gained from the two major lessons. With each successive week, students use Day Three to review and summarize the accumulation of lessons presented, starting from Week One.
