How to Teach Trig to An Eight Year Old.

Scroll Down For A Free Lesson!

Just what it says. Curious? Get the Module Four Password. Trig is easy when you do it right. If you think it's too hard or too much or too advanced for younglings this age, that's because you suffer from math trauma brought about by well meaning pedagogues whose piss poor performance purveying math caused you frustration and mental pain. Hopefully trig wasn't too bad for you during school and if you are one of the ones who aced it, you are going to LOVE this.. 

You get access to a page that shows you how to use base ten blocks to make trig easy.  Happily even if you don't have base ten blocks you can still follow along with a pencil and a piece of graph paper. Manipulatives make it that much easier though because we add a kinesthetic component to the learning experience.  But if you don't have base 10 blocks, drawing is the next best thing...ideally you would build them AND draw them,  not just draw them but this is still better than symbols alone.

Note: cuisenaire rods will work pretty well here as well. Mortensen math blocks are the best base 10 blocks i know of but any base 10 blocks should do.

Here is a short vid explaining what you get, if you don't already have a LIFETIME Password. If you have a LifeTime PassPort: Just email me if the Mod IV password you are using doesn't work. Doesn't matter how long ago you got it. Lifetime means lifetime. 

This short 5 minute vid tells you what you get.

Note: I used to sell his page by itself for $39.95.  Now you get Module IV for a one time payment of $250.00... And you get this page plus a whole bunch of other pages for life. If you haven't already, check out the  password info page for details on ordering or read more below. Tis page ALONE is worth the Module IV password price, but look how much more you get besides this Trig page. And try to remember, these pages are all built for the 10 and under crowd--you don't have to be a teenager to do trigonometry. Just make sure you play and build pyramids and can do some multiplication. i show you how to use these lessons to teach them basic math while learning trig. 

Pythagorean Theorem & Distance Formula wit base ten blocks.The math is timeless. You get 35+ years of mat experience, 15 of them online. So i have accumulated quite a bit of content. This website aggregates that content so you can find it.

The nice thing is even if you don't have a set of blocks you can use this information to make trig more understandable and accessible to students of all ages. The information "stands alone" as it were. You don't need manipulatives to be able to follow along...graph paper and a pencil should suffice. Manipulatives are optimal though.

Get their hands on the blocks and comprehension sky rockets across all learning styles. Concept based teaching makes math fun and easy. 

Some of the lessons took years to finally get on video. i still write down ideas for videos that i need to make (like fractions for example) a few times a week...PDFs and videos are added constantly.

On the next page you will learn how to make Trig easy and fun so that it child's play for your students or children. Trig should be easy and fun. Here You will see math broken down into very basic concepts that make math (in this case trig) EZ! Use Micro lessons to make trig come together for your students. These videos show you how.

There are several hours of trig on the next page. Taught in a way that is easily understandable to all. The lesson that earned one of my students a perfect score is on the next page along with several short lessons that are about a half hour long. The time will fly by. 

Caution the next page may induce binge watching.

Use your MOD IV password and spend a little while each day, rather than watching them all at once.  Make sure to play along not just watch. Several moms have told me first they binge watch, then they go back and play along either alone or with their child/pupils. And everybody works the problems together and then you should be able to make up and d many of your own.

Annual passes are good for one year, lifetime passes are good for as long as the site remains up, (site has been up for eight years now).  All single page passwords have lifetime renewal.


Bonus Lesson:

The problem with Trig is they don't show you the triangles on the unit circle...and don't make it clear that we are just applying no fun get back to one to Trig and making the hypotenuse equal to ONE.  Now we can generalize it because we know what one is. We either divide by 2 or the square root of two to make our special triangles "fit" on the unit circle. 

This is the first video on this Trig page. You need your module iv password, and the video assumes you have a little experience good, bad, or indifferent with the unit circle. After you go through the vids on these pages you should understand trig well enough to teach it to others.

Note: Mortensen Product Ordering Buttons Have Been Removed Due To Shipping/Inventory Issues. i basically DO NOT sell product for them anymore. Use eBay or other sources for base ten blocks.
