This course will be of value to you because it has 13 videos that are visually appealing with cartoon, white board animation.  Each of the videos have a 2 page worksheet for you and your children to review the concepts together. The first page is something you can review and discuss before watching the video, the second page is something you can complete after watching the 2 minute video.  These questions will help you engage and deepen your learning on these conepts.  I hope you enjoy the course.
