Our math curriculum is called Bridges Mathematics. They have a wonderful site for families with many great resources, including unit overviews, games, and a parent's guide to success. We are using the third edition. You can access the website here.
We spend 60 minutes every day working with our Bridges lessons. Homework is connected to this learning as well. Number Corner is an additional 20 minutes of math learning time that extends, reviews, and furthers our math learning.
