Module III

If you already have a Lifetime passport, use the Module III Password tto enter. 

The price of a Lifetime Passport increases as more video and PDFs are added, the Series A Online page is now included in Module I, as well as the EZ PZ Overview. You can go through these pages before or after you go through M0AR training with the crash course. i know you want bulk education because that's what you are used to, but that's not how this website works. If you want training just Get Started.  If you want M0AR training you can start there. If you buy Module Two you have access to all the training at once.  You now get THREE passwords with Module II.  

The Crash Course. (B*******)
Hurricane Training (H****************)
Winter Training. Same as Hurricane Training.
Module II (2*******)

There's more than 16 hours of training before you get to Module II if you want. If you have the module ii passwords you can mix it up however you like. This doesn't go by grade or level. The trainings are a Gestalt focused on math a whole language not as bits and pieces with segmentation to the point where the teachers themselves have lost track of what the words and symbols mean. Distance Formula and Pythagorean theorem are basically the same thing but not when you only see symbols. You should see triangles. 

This symbol ÷ and this / symbol are almost the same but not quite which has caused quite a bit of confusion.  They both mean division.  On the left even without parenthesis the sentence says the is 6 divided by everything after the symbol ÷ 2(1+2). The symbol tells you 6 on top, 2(1+2) on the bottom.  It divides the expression into two parts the part before the symbol and the part after. On the right there is confusion be cause it could mean (6/2) a discreet number multiplied by (1+2) another discreet number. PEMDAS. Note multiplication comes BEFORE division in order of operations, so you would still do the multiplication before the division...and yet the internet tries to tell you they are the same and the answer should always be 9. i disagree.  Symbols matter. Syntax matters. And the whole thing is solved by additional symbols. Did you mean six divided by two times three (1+2) or six divided by two and then multiplied by 3 (1+2)? 

6÷2(1+2) = 6/(2(1+2)) or (6/2)(1+2)?

NEW Lifetime Members get a passport with all four passwords and membership to this FaceBook page too:

If you would like to get started, check out the price on M0AR training. You get more training for less $$$$$.  Once you get through that i think you will see the other passwords are a bargain too. Don't delay, prices are going up on the "crash course" too.  Being able to "sit in" on tutoring sessions and see actual examples is priceless.

Pythagorean theorem & distance formula are obvious with base ten blocks. The blue 5 block is the distance, the pink 3 block is the difference between the "y"s and the yellow 4 block is the distance between the "x"s, or simply a² + b² = c². With base ten blocks you also get a feel for how long √3 is, especially if you use 10s. Two tens for the hypotenuse and one ten instead of one for the side...symbols and drawings not as effective as blocks in this case...which is another thing you will learn if you come to training: always start in the concrete.  If you don't know what that means, come to training. Avoid the confusion. Things clear up quickly when you can see it.

When you purchase a passport, you get all my books and PDFs plus many pages of video and instruction you won't find anywhere else. If you just get started for $100.00 you be amazed at how much you get and you get them for life not for a limited time.  Download PDFs and put them on your tablets or print them out or whatever... just hit enter, put your Mod III password in and take your pick.  Some homeschoolers have printed them out and then their children can get their base ten blocks out and actually put them on the pages and/or play along...As you see above.

When you purchase the LIFETIME PASSPORT you get it all for one low temporary SALE price: $500.00...

Or you can now purchase individual modules, & still get a lifetime of access. (See below.)


MOD 1: Series A+ Easy PZ + PDFs 

MOD 2: Parent Teacher Training + Winter Training 

MOD 3 : Sitewide 

MOD 4: "Advanced Pages" + SSDSS Facebook Math Group 

Use the PDF & link to order blocks and/or passwords. Or click here for PayPal buttons. 

i no longer facilitate getting blocks from Mortco. You will have to find them on your own. "Marketplace" sites on FaceBook, Etsy, Craigslist, are best. Prices vary widely.  One thing is certain, they have great resale value if you keep all you blocks together. If you have base ten blocks i will show you how to use them.  Guaranteed. 

Check eBay for blocks.

There are now two PDFs on the five concepts. A short two page document that basically just covers the five concepts and what they are and a much more in depth 12 page document covering the 5 concepts as well as some other basic concepts regarding the methodology and the Montessori Method they are based upon.  The twelve page document is available on the other side along with a plethora of PDFs for your homeschool.

Here are some more PDFs for you.

***Unlimited Lifetime Access:


M0AR Training
M0AR Training $100.00    
You are guided through two--one hour Introductions, one for "students" and one for "teachers", The Crash Course, Hurricane and Winter training.  You can take the cost of is training off any other password or the passport.

Passport 4 Passwords + AC = All four passwords plus the Algebra Course.  Basically all of my passwords for a one time fee of $1249.00.  You will also get M0AR Training: the crash course and Hurricane Training + Winter Training and all of my books.

Passport 4 Passwords $999.00 = All four passwords. You will also get the crash course and Hurricane Training and all of my books. But no Algebra Course. You can always buy it separately for $250.00 if you buy all four passwords. 

MOD 1: Series A+ Easy PZ + PDFs 
PDF Only (MOD I) $100.00 = Module One. PDFs and Books and more PDFs. You get the series A manuals, my books and the EZ PZ Overview. You will also get the Crash Course and Hurricane Training. This module has all ten Series A Manuals online plus my books and workbooks, as well as worksheets for learning how to write numbers, pdfs explaining the method and make it EZ PZ, pdfs for practicing concepts.  A plethora of PDFs all in on place. Most of them have explanatory videos to go along with them so you get best use out of them.  It will take you quite a while to download and print it all.  This has an entry page. 

MOD 2: Parent Teacher Training + M0AR Training 
Training (MOD II) $400.00 = Module Two. Training you won't get anywhere else. You will also get the Crash Course, Hurricane Training, and Winter Training, plus all of my books. Module one and two are a great combination. You will learn how to teach math using base ten blocks whether you are planning to homeschool or a side hustle, this Module will put you well ahead of any competition. Best of all the videos are fun...they may not be exactly entertaining, but they certainly are engaging. i get great results so you will get great results because i teach you how and the theory behind it, in other words how and WHY.  This page has an entry page. 

MOD 3 : Sitewide + PDFs 
SiteWide (MOD III) $250.00 = Module Three is the most bang for your buck. It isn't so much a module with an entry page as a collection of pages. When in doubt try the Mod III password. Coupled with Module One, you basically get my website from years ago before i added all the parent/teacher training and the so called "advanced" pages.  Spend time on these pages and training will be a breeze. Module Three puts theory into practice. Example IS the lesson. Module Two gives you theory and some practice, this module is all theory IN practice right in front of your eyes, you see and hear the children learning in real time. You can hear the ah-ha moments...the lessons are unrehearsed with real students. They are fun because learning is fun and watching others learn is fun too. This is in and of itself is priceless training. 

MOD 4: "Advanced Pages" + SSDSS Facebook Math Group 
"Advanced" (Module IV) $250.00 = i say "advanced" because Module Four is higher level math, but really you are still just creatively applying the five basic concepts. It has however come to my attention that other curriculums are not using the blocks to teach upper level algebra, and resort to symbols only in their books. i put the pictures back in and show you what the symbols mean and what the problems look like. This greatly enhances speed and efficiency of learning as well as making abstract concepts accessible to kinesthetic learners who can build the problems from the drawings. Visual learners love this method because they can see the symbols and operations, which makes it fun. 

i have lots of explanatory videos to make and add. i also have several entry or landing pages to build. When the dust settles it should be much easier to navigate, to get started, & to know what to do next.

Algebra Course 
$600.00.  $250.00 with $999.00 PassPort.
