Trig For Little Kids

There is a FREE lesson on this page too:

How to teach trig to 8 year olds

to get you started

It's pretty easy once you understand some basic concepts. This short 5 minute video details what you get for your money. If you have already gotten a lifetime password this page is Gratis. Otherwise it's just $39.95.


The page contains several hours of video that will make trig into child's play. It also has several bonuses that make the page (more than) worth the 40 bucks you are going to pay...

You can pay 40 bucks and it will be more than worth it. Or you can get a "lifetime pass" and get passwords that get you into ALL my password protected pages AND the Parent Teacher training page. Use the button below. If you can't afford $250.00 all at once use the ten pay feature, And remember this page is FREE to those that already have lifetime passwords, but not to those that just have the P/T Training or Sitewide, or who just have annual password status.

Update:  These prices have changed.

Here is the one pay (choose $250.00):

use side bar

Here is the 10 pay (choose $26.00):

use side bar

Obviously, the only one that will get you the password to this page is the $26.00 Lifetime password. So when I say lifetime password I really mean 3 passwords. One for PT Training. One for ALL the other pages (Sitewide) and now one for How to teach Trig to 8 Year Olds. There will be more Al La Cart pages in the future but if you have a lifetime pass these come free with it...and as you can see eventually the price of the Lifetime pass is going to go UP.

If just want the password to this page buy it on the Entry Page and you are quite literally set for life. That 39.95 gets you into that page forever not just a week or month or year.  When the password changes, and it will, just email me for the new one.

Once you have you the correct password go:

HERE

Or direct to the page requiring your password here.

You get quite a bit of stuff for free, for example go to this page and get a some FREE simple trig lessons. You might also do a search for Crewton Ramone Trigonometry and see what comes back. And of course, if you don't think it was worth the money for the password ask for your money back.

Here is a photo set from the training...basically shots of the white board before I erased it and moved on. For an explanation of what you see here go to the page and watch the 40 minute screen cast...

Use these simple tools to make trig child's play.

Don't forget to check out the FREE lesson on this page:

How to teach trig to 8 year olds.

***Also be looking forward to a sale of sorts where you get a combo kit, a pass for two trainings AND, plus a lifetime password all for just 345.00. And because I will have the combo kits in hand you will get same day or one day PRIORITY shipping, so you will have the kit IN HAND in a week not 6 to 8 weeks. Stay tuned for that.

Another FREE Mirco LESSON:


You will see the reason for some of the vids on the password protected page once you see these little kids learning Trig...make math easy and do short lessons. Even this 15 minute lesson could be broken up. But I'm making videos to show you guys...note how I ask questions I don't just tell them facts to memorize. All this and more is covered in "How to teach trig to eight year olds." Note how I EXPECT hem to know and use basic concepts like square toot, divide a number by itself to get one, opposite addends, same and more...put it altogether with my help. 

Trig too much for you? Start with a FREE book on subtraction. Get Supremely Simple Subtraction here. If they can't do subtraction easily math isn't going to be any fun. Check the comments out on that page...people really like my free stuff I think you will find you'll get more than your money's worth when I ask you to pay for something. Get your FREE copy today.  Also go back up and hit like if you got some value out of this page whether to get "How To Teach Trig To Eight Year Olds" or not.

August 2015 Training.

Mooey the Moo Cow In the Burbs Of Chicago. Interstate 90.

Training on Friday 8AM HST and AGAIN on Sat 9AM HST. $25 @, $50 for two days, Aug 28th and 29th.

Check a time zone calculator for your local time. HST = Hawaiian Standard Time.

Watch FB for updates, but FB doesn't share or put updates on your timeline otherwise I wouldn't spend money in advertising so YOU have to go to my page and scroll a little if you want to stay informed. Last week nobody showed up because none of them saw the update until afterwards...

LINKS YOU SHOULD CLICK:
Check these out before you go to a training, if you haven't already.


How do trainings work?

Basic Concepts & Principles.

Dirty Base Ten Blocks?

Dirty blocks? Use a washing machine and a garment bag made for delicates and a lot of oxy clean and then just stick them in the wash with a washcloth...these were really bad now they look almost brand new...


People also use a dish washer but make sure you put them in the top rack and DO NOT use heat to dry them...

Sale is over.

May need to allow a few hours for delivery...if it's 3am HST I'm sleeping. There is no auto-responder and the pop up feature doesn't seem to work so I will send the links to the password pages to your paypal email address or the alternate address if you fill it out..

I assure you you will more value out of these passwords than a couple of levels of books...


Here a few of the pages that make the password worth your money:

Parent Teacher Training alone is worth the money.

Sarah's Page.

"Advanced Algebra."

Trigonometry. This page alone is worth the price...you get to see a lesson that earned a student a perfect score on his trig test and a whole lot more.



Percentages. You will be hard pressed to find percentages presented this way with base ten blocks anywhere on the entire internet.

Sample Lessons.

There are more pages than this including Pages of PDF's and more...

In fact even if you don't get a password you could go to these pages and learn a thing or two for FREE. But get a password, prices will continue to go up...sale price used to 100, then 150 now it's 175, next it will be 200...and I am told by many from homeschoolers to marketing gurus that the regular price or $250.00 is severely undervalued...early adopters are rewarded...

Test your sitewide password HERE.

X-MAS IN JUNE.

You need a password to get these prices if you want a lifetime pass use the paypal button below. You can get a lifetime for 150 or 10 payments of 20 bucks...which is still less than $250.00 which is still a a heck of deal. Many people were confused because they thought $150.00 meant you got one or the other...a life time training OR a sitewide... which would be $300.00. You get BOTH for that price of $150.00...normally it's $250.00  You will need the sitewide password to get these prices. If you have a password click

and place your order...if you live outside the 48 states Mortco will send you another invoice to bill you for shipping.  If you don't have a password get one below or if you don't want to get a life time pass due to financial constraints you can get a sitewide for 6 bucks a month for 10 months...or both for $8.50...but it's only good for a year.

 

SALE IS OVER

This button has the lifetime pass for 10 x 20 bucks a month. Last option on the drop down menu. If you want to get a Lifetime plus a Combokit or Deluxe Curriculum Starter Kit  scroll down and use the other button. If you want to shop for more stuff than that click the "enter here" links.

If you don't see what you want or the combination of things you want email me and I will either invoice you or create a button you can click...

Again: THESE ARE REAL SALE PRICES. Prices include shipping to the lower 48. Alaska, Hawaii and everywhere else will get an invoice. Checks are welcome. "Rainchecks" will be given if you contact me ON OR BEFORE the sale.  In fact I have taken a couple of PRE-SALE orders for people who can't make the sale already...contact me.

BOOKS:

Books will not be uniform. They will be mixed style/format. I was not aware they were that mixed up 'till some one sent me an email...apparently transition is taking place. I have nothing to do with this.

LIFETIME PASSWORDS

A worthy cause.

Lifetime Passes, (both passwords "sitewide" and parent-teacher training) Reg $250.00 (which already a hell of deal) SALE $150.00!!! The entry page to the sales page will offer you the passwords, once you get the password you need (which you will get via email in case the pop up doesn't pop up and from what I hear it often doesn't, you will be able to get to the sales page.)


You don't need to buy a password so you can get a password, you do need to get a password so you can get sale prices on blocks though. Don't worry it's not complicated I will build yet another page that you will go to and ordering will be fast and easy with paypal/credit/debit cards OR you can send in a check.

SALE IS OVER

Trig With Base Ten Blocks

Base ten blocks are well suited for teaching trig and trig concepts in a very concrete manner.  Starting off simply with Pythagorean Theorem it becomes quite clear that the blocks make things much more tangible than even the simple formula a² + b² = c².

Basically we take a rectangle and cut it diagonally into a triangle and then study that and those relationships.  We have names for those relationships. SOH CAH TOA will help you remember those names but it's important to understand what those relationships actually mean.  As I have said about 1,000 times probably more, if all you know is sin30° = .5 and cos60° = sin30° you are going to have a bad time.

Even the entry page to the Trig page has valuable lessons you can use with your young students on it.  And judging from the instant and huge response there is some demand for a method that makes trig simple and easy. One the trig page you get hours of video including lessons that actual students were given that allowed them to get 100% scores when they were formally getting less than 50% of tests right.

Base Ten Blocks make Trig assessable.

Once you understand the concepts all they can do is change the numbers. Click this link to go see what I'm talking about. Then get yourself a password. The Trig page is worth the price all by itself, but you get 14 other password protected pages all for just 6 bucks...plus for a two and a half bucks more you get parent teacher training and that is also getting good reviews and blowing people's mind's when it comes to how easy math can be. If you let it.

The lessons on building squares are going to make Pythagoras easy to understand, Pythagoras made Trigonometry easy to understand and you will see the base ten block method makes it all understandable. On the entry page there is now a lesson about the definitions and how to use them for parents and teachers but students could benefit from it too.  There is also some quick info on what to expact on the password protected page and another vid showing simple definitions. Like any language you have to know what the words mean before you can use them properly. When you teach math try to think about it the way you would teaching any other language, lighten up and play math.

How do trainings work?

One: You need a Gmail address. Install the video chat plug in.

Two: You send me your Gmail address. Add me to a circle if you like.

Three. I add you to the Friday Training circle.

Four: Watch FB or other forum for time and date usually Friday or Saturday. Use this so you don't screw up the TIME ZOMES BTW noon means PM and 12AM is the middle of the night. You big fat dorks.

Five: Friday. Have computer turned on and the Gmail window/tab open. Chome or Firefox are the best browsers then Safari then Explorer. Shut down all other programs including mail, preview etc. Click on invitation. You may want to practice a little with friends or family so you know how it works BEFORE you come to the training. You will be EXPECTED to PARTICIPATE not just watch. math is not a spectator sport.

Cost is JUST $25.00...and 3 to 4 hours usually flies by. You will not be bored and you will be shocked at how fast the time goes. Ask anybody who has been. 1 hour is not enough to get anything done. And this is meat and potatoes not fluff and feather so bring a paper and pencil and be ready to be blown away. Get in now because that price is also going to increase as time goes by...but for now it's $25.00.


THAT'S IT.

Algebra With A 6 Year Old Girl.

Playing what's under the cup is a hugely powerful game. In the beginning it teaches simple addition...but as we progress it teaches much more. It is an extremely powerful game although it it deceptively simple. Great for pattern identification and basic algebra concepts that will be important throughout their math careers. The basic concepts are not beyond the grasp of any child so long as you introduce them at the child's level.

Here is a short vid showing the introduction of Hero Zero.


We could have gone either way...to NFGBT1 or to Hero Zero. I usually go to Hero Zero first.

Here is a longer video which is just one of many you will find behind the SAMPLE LESSONS password protected page. You get to watch it here for FREE. If you want to watch a lot more videos like this just get a password. The Trig page alone make the password worth it, and six bucks a month is a no brainer. Be reminded you are watching most of a lesson for which the people in paid $50.00.

This video shows sample lesson with a 6 year old girl doing problem solving it is also on the sample lessons page; problem solving like x + 5 = 13 is EASY.

But also x - 7 = 6 which takes a little more thinking.

And story problems like 20% of my little ponies are blue, I have 70 my little ponies how many are blue?

Introduces 21 is x% of 70 and more...for more on Percentages click on the percentages tab (%) at the house of math or click the link (t)here.


In the picture she shows us a problem she made and we got it right that a 5 was in the cup...my son earned 1 buck. I made 49.00. If you would like me to pimp my son out to you so your kid can play math and stay engaged email me...she usually will play for 20 minutes before she starts asking if we can quit. With my son I had to cut the lesson off after an hour...46 minutes of it is on video unedited..so there are long pauses as they figure out the answers...perfect for your kids to play along in real time...

X-Mas In June Sale

Crewton Ramone's House of Math will be having a Christmas in June one day sales extravaganza on June 25th.

This will be your last chance to get a life time password for the ridiculously low price of $150.00.

Only Lifetime passwords will be on sale...annual and subscriptions will NOT be on sale. However I have gotten Mortco to participate and they have put some items on sale at VERY GOOD PRICES. It has been over a year since anything was on sale at Mortco and it would behoove you to take advantage of these prices because it may be quite a while before you see sale prices again. For months (and months and months and months) after the last sale i got emails and PMs from people asking when the next sale was going to be...lol...because apparently they were under the impression that we have sales all the time and all they had to do was wait around a little bit for the next one...turns out NOT.

Remember 6 to 8 weeks for delivery.

And I told you at that time that $65.00 for a combo kit was a steal and you'd wait till the cows come home before you saw that price again...and the cows weren't coming home. Well...you can get that price (better actually) but only if you buy a case and only if you have a password. In fact the only way to get these sale prices is if you have a password. A password can be had for as little as 6 bucks a month for 10 months which will get you a years worth of access to my site. Just use the buttons you see on the right. (Scroll down a little.)

Remember 6 to 8 weeks for delivery.

WHY am I only offering this to people who already have passwords? Well, if you have a password you are more prone to be a person that actually knows how to us the blocks. Too many people butcher the method and the program because they have blocks and don't know how to use them...then other people get the mistaken impression that this method doesn't work or that it's just like other copy cat methods or they are confused about base ten blocks and their use in general and decide to subject their children to other methods that don't work as well or end up with very similar results to not using base ten blocks at all...

Remember 6 to 8 weeks for delivery.

If you going to get blocks you should have passwords so you know how to use the blocks. I have heard many good things about my teacher training page clearing up many misconceptions and answering a lot of questions parents and teachers have about the method. There is now 10 hours of video training there, plus links to this blog and my website and support material in the form of PDFs and "soon" because of popular demand there will be PDF transcripts of the videos there too.

Remember 6 to 8 weeks for delivery.

My website contains a plethora of FREE information. My password protected pages have even more info and more "advanced" techniques for playing with blocks...like how to factor polynomials that contain negatives, using them for percentages and more. You also get all my books and PDFs available to you for download included in the price. Not only that, you get access to all the updates and additions I make to the password protected pages in the future...and as the years have gone by I have gone from one password page to 14...I will be adding one more page on Calc eventually. I added a page on trig which IMO is worth the price of admission all by itself.

Remember 6 to 8 weeks for delivery. Don't send me an email after two weeks that says, "I know it says 6 to 8 weeks for delivery but..."
