Your videos are just the best 🎉
Thank you for taking the time to write a nice comment. 🤗
This is great! Thank you!!!
Thank you!! I have heard so many great things about the Math Map but I never sat down to investigate and learn. I absolutely love math and have two daughters who don't so I was hoping that the Math Map would help all of us. This video was a perfect explanation so that I know how to work through the material each week. Bless you for sharing your knowledge.
aha moment ..... then lost me at base 2 when you said we can have only 2 digets 0,1 but out 4 in the hundreds place ??
@@heatherc3672 There isn’t a hundredths place anymore. That’s only in base 10. The place values for 2 are 1,2,4,8… So only two digits can go under any of those columns (0 or 1).
This was INCREDIBLY helpful! My students may not be ready to know this yet, but I was really wanting to understand this! Thank you so much!
Thank you for this!!
A friend shared your lesson plans for Weeks 1-6 and they are wonderful! Where can I find the math Laws flashcards you reference?
I just wanted to say THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I am trying out for my foundations kiddos this year and your video was soooo helpful. I wish they would have done something like this at practicum. I appreciate you taking the time to share!
😭 an absolute God-send. TMM overwhelms me a bit and this is so so helpful! Thank you.
Do you have copies of your lesson plans available somewhere? It would be helpful to see an example lesson plan. Thanks
@@them6wilsons Yes, on the Challenge A Directors group on Facebook.
So extremely helpful! I have tried to wrap my head around how exactly we are supposed to use this. Even after practicum and watching the book club videos and being a person with a math degree, I still felt like I needed more details (a recipe) on what exactly to do with this. Do you happen to have something showing which Fractions and Notations cards coincide with each week's concepts? I'm envisioning labeling each side of the cards with which week the concept is introduced. I would just love something that lists out the cards and which week they go with.
@@mamaknight05 I put together a document with my pics for each week (not that they are necessarily right - just the ones we plan to use each week). I posted the document in the CC Challenge A Families group on Facebook.
If we do not have the flashcards, is there a place we can get the information to make our own for the time being?
@@katiecooper9593 A few parents have posted sample flashcards on the Facebook CC Challenge A Families group. You could also look at the glossary (which is in the Companion) and create your own.
Thanks for this. Very helpful. Where can I find Kimberly Gunther's stuff? UA-cam or Facebook? Also, I'd love to have your printout for the Brain Book!
@@angieholder Kimberly posted her documents on the Challenge A Directors group on Facebook. She may have also posted on the CC Families A group on Facebook. I’ll have to get back to you on where to get the Brian book cover. I haven’t posted it anywhere yet.
Best video I've seen yet on TMM!! You're amazing! Thank you!!
Thank you!!! This was wonderful. I was so lost! God bless you Amber.
This is extremely helpful! Thank you for sharing!
This was amazingly helpful!!!! THANK YOU!
Thank you! This was amazing
So my child who will be starting complex has never had any experience with i (imaginary) numbers. Is that ok, will he gain an understanding of how they work as the years progress?
@@rachelt2010 I would imagine most of the seventh graders haven’t learned about imaginary numbers. They will be learning together. It’s okay.
Very helpful thank you 🙂
This is so unbelievably impressive! Thank you for sharing! Could you possibly post the link where you found the stickers to put in the passports? Thank you so much.
@@kimdudwitt2861 These are the Canada stickers I bought. amzn.to/3WJ6khI I had USA stickers in my collection already and haven’t bought any other countries. Although I’ll probably see if the company I Bought the Canadian stickers from have more countries because they were the perfect size and lots of variety.
That’s helpful! Thank you so much!
With all those LTW printables, do you find that it’s unnecessary to use/buy the student workbook?
@@amandaleimbach2669 No, they still need the workbook. The printouts don’t teach anything new, they are basically just a step up from blank paper (more organized than blanks).
What are some of the FB groups you were talking about? I’d love to get into some of them
@@stacymejia5153 CC Challenge A Families and there is one specific to directors called Challenge A Directors.
I am so grateful for your videos and examples, such a blessing to a new director AND new Challenge parent! You mentioned alot of these things were on the facebook group, but do you know for those of us who don't have facebook or don't plan on getting it, are these things located anywhere else? Thanks again!
@@BethHaggard I think many of the items are on CC Connected too in the parent resource section. I haven’t posted any resources of mine there but I probably should. I’ll make a note to do that when we are back in town.
@@AmbersClassicalClassroom Thank you! Was just looking for the bookmarks but haven't found them yet.....probably just not searching correctly.
I love this so much, great job! Your videos are SO helpful. I love your passport idea and incentive. And what is the paper you mentioned? I'm not familiar with it and, as a Director, didn't know we needed it. Are you able to link that, the passports and special compasses? Great job, thanks again! You clearly have the spiritual gifts of administration and help. 🤗
I just updated the comments for the video to include links for those items. I think I can post them here too: Passports amzn.to/3YBmdtb Patty paper amzn.to/46Fmqxr Compasses amzn.to/3yHsCs6
Thanks SO much! ❤@@AmbersClassicalClassroom
This is wonderful. It was exactly what I needed to see what my day would look like.
Thank you so much. This was so helpful.
This was a fabulous video! Very thorough and helpful!!! Thank you so much for putting your time and energy into this!❤
Thank you. What if my son is not at the level of Math CC would want him to be (typical 7th grade math per say) I don't want to stop his is Math that he's working through currently. Thoughts?
@@abbeyj6120 maybe just continue his current math and do one page a day from Math Map. They he can get exposure to the new vocabulary and concepts but can keep with his current math.
Thank you so much! This was fantastic and really helpful!
Thank you!!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you!
Thank you!!
So helpful! Thank you!
what does CC mean by “exortium”? New material?
@@MamaSzrama it’s the first part of each strand in the Challenge levels. Basically it’s an opening to the discussion.
Super helpful thank you! I have two kiddos going into Challenge A and this made the organization easier :).
where did u find printing for only $60!??
@@MamaSzrama Try thehomeschoolprinting company
I wish I would have found this video about 6 hours ago:) I have spent many, many hours trying to wrap my head around this curriculum. THANK YOU for making it so easy to see and understand. I am still very skeptical about how/if we will use this at home, but I appreciate the basic understanding that I now have because of you! We have been a CC family for 10 years and one of my biggest struggles is that I have a hard time with how CC presents information, it usually doesn't make sense to my brain and I feel like it's a runaround just trying to get answers and see how it actually works. You are a blessing.
💯 This school year will be our 12th year. I love the resources and I love reclaiming my education, but PLEASE HELP ME OUT CC. I’m a busy mom. This is just the way Cc does it and I don’t think they’ll ever change- hence likely part of the reason we can’t get an app. EVERYONE HAS AN APP!!!
I just started CC for the first time and it’s so hard to find explanations
This is super helpful. Thank you for sharing!
This was really helpful as a CH A director. Thank you so much for these videos and your lesson plans!
@@jmbraaten I’m glad they are proving useful. Please let me know if you need anything else.
amazing help!!
Help please. This feels like handing kids a worksheet and saying good luck figuring this out. Big sigh. I want to like this curriculum but I see major frustration for my non-math brained student in our future.
I agree it’s going to take some guidance (especially for the kid where math is not intuitive) but I think it’s a skill they will develop and it will get better after first month or so.
I have never agreed so much with anything in my life. This is how i feel. Charts are soo overwhelming to me even and I was good at math
This was the MOST HELPFUL video I've seen regarding Math Map! Thank you!!!!
@@amberc.2840 Thank you. I actually made this as a follow-up to my other video on how to use Math Map at home. I think you might find that one even more useful.
@@amberc.2840 Here’s that link: ua-cam.com/video/1zwumhlzAwc/v-deo.htmlsi=vZS89PfsBN0n_hBN
I saw in your other video (how to use TMM at home) that you removed the charts from the weekly workbooks, would it be easier to keep the workbook intact for community day and then take them out at home. Am I correct in understanding that they will be discussing a workbook on community day and then doing the 16 worksheets that week at home?
@@Dragonlaser250 That’s a good idea. Keep them together for community day so they don’t lose anything. And yes, you are right, they are introduced to the booklet at community and then work those 16 pages at home following community day.
Thank you for taking the time to explain the Math map. I have been so busy with my nursing school assignments and studying for the NCLEX that I am falling behind in preparing for my son's upcoming challenge A class. Would you recommend sticking with this or adding another math curriculum (my son would be doing Pre-Algebra)?
@@cbrn5906 The only thing I’m adding is some test taking prep in the summer (after we finish week 30) so my kids can have some practice on math drills for standardized tests. But we’ve done that all years (even with Saxon).
I love the vinyl pockets at the back of my planner. I use one for all of my receipts for taxes. That way they’re in one place come March when we file.
That is a genius idea. This is my first year directing so I wasn’t even thinking about that.
Thank you for this! I especially appreciate the pep talk. ❤
Thank you!
