Consumer Math for Real Life

 Sometimes it feels like the hardest math problem is deciding what math courses your high schooler should take! If they aren't interested in a STEM career, certain math courses can be unnecessarily frustrating or even seem useless after high school. 

Consumer Math for Real Life is our high school math curriculum recommended for 11th or 12th grade that fulfills an entire math credit while teaching skills your student will use in the real world. Consumer Math contains 16 different units and assesses learning through 22 real-world projects. From creating a budget, to writing a business plan, to planning and calculating the cost to floor a room, this course teaches math from a practical perspective. By the end of this course, your student will:

  • understand saving and investing.
  • learn what costs are associated with life.
  • know how to apply critical thinking to the real-life problems they encounter.
  • understand the basics of income, taxes, and employee benefits.
  • explore career or academic options for their life after high school.

Most importantly, they will learn that biblical wisdom is the solid foundation on which they can make every decision. Order your book today and help your student understand that math isn't just equations in a textbook!

So happy we decided to use this!!

My son completed Calculus 1, but won’t have time to complete Calculus 2 before the end of this year (his Senior Year). I wanted him to have a math program this year, but also wanted him to have a good idea of what to expect when he is out on his own. This curriculum has been amazing so far and I truly believe every high schooler needs to take this before heading out on their own!

Best Math Course!

We love this Consumer Math/Personal Finance course! My homeschool daughter is currently using this for her senior math course. It is user friendly, fun, and so helpful for getting kids ready for life after high school! She is coming to me regularly to tell me how surprised she is that college is so expensive, or how many hours she’s going to have to work to pay for a car, etc. This course helps them budget, shop for groceries, do taxes, plan for college, and so much more! Highly recommend!

Math for Real Life

My daughter is just starting this curriculum this year and I think it's amazing. She is doing a deep dive into researching careers, how to prepare for them, what the average salary is, and even seeing how withholdings and investments work. I think it's a really valuable experience for her to study before she heads out on her own.

High School Math Your Child Will Use!

This math is an excellent course to teach your child practical concepts and principles they will need and use in life. I was very pleased that it begins each chapter with a Bible lesson of how the math they will be learning applies to the Word of God. My 11th grade son has been using it for a couple weeks, likes it and is doing well with it, what a difference from past years of stressful math curriculums. Thank you to the families of Not Consumed who put out this wonderful practical math curriculum and offer it at such a reasonable price!

Her friends are jealous

I wanted to give our 11th grader something different and practical for math this year. There aren’t many up-to-date consumer math programs out there, so I was thrilled to find this great resource! She tells her friends about what she is doing and practicing for math and they say they wish they could have a useful curriculum. This program teaches applicable, practical concepts that will actually help my daughter in life.

Finally a stress free math course

Math class in our homeschool has always been a struggle. We have tried many programs with our high schoolers through the years, and most of them ended with a frustrated or tearful child. This is the first time one of my children has come to me and actually said they like their math curriculum. This has been such a blessing. We will definitely be using this course with our other children .

Best Real Life Math for High School Student

My daughter has completed 3 out of 4 of her math credits and I was so excited to find this as her final credit! She is worried about how she will understand so many "adult" things and this has been great to walk her through life skills and economics through a biblical perspective. I'm so happy to have found this book!
