Level 1: Arithmetic & Fine-Motor Skills Module

Regarding the Rod & Staff Grade 1 Math Teacher Manual, 3rd Edition, the publisher says: "The hardcover teacher's manual covers the whole course and is essential for teaching it. A reduced copy of the pupil's lessons, speed drills, and practice sheets are included with answers filled in."

The Rod & Staff Grade 1 Math Student Book (Part 1) uses a mastery approach when teaching mathematics. This means that the student will spend a significant amount of time on one particular skill, such as addition or subtraction, in order to master said skill before moving on.

The Rod & Staff Grade 1 Math Flashcards aid the student in gaining a better grasp of the building blocks of mathematics. Whether it be number recognition, counting, addition, or subtraction, our students will obtain an excellent launching point for further education in mathematics.

Rod & Staff Grade 1 Math Practice Sheets provides further course work and practice for what they learn throughout the course. These Practice Sheets come on 3-ring punched paper that is meant to be put into a folder so that the sheets may be easily accessed by the student.
