Learn foundational geometry concepts through enjoyable hands-on lessons!
The study of practical geometry is a hands-on study of geometry concepts that lays a foundation for a future formal study of geometry in high school. This second book of practical geometry lessons stands alongside 6th grade math lessons for variety and to introduce new mathematical concepts.
These fun, interesting lessons take approximately 30 minutes each. Charlotte Mason Practical Geometry, Part 2 is designed to be completed in one 36-week school year with lessons done once a week.
Like the The Charlotte Mason Elementary Arithmetic Series, the book is a beautiful, non-consumable hardcover. One book can be used and re-used with all your children!
