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!

The Answer Key for Consumer Math which includes parent instructions, project checklists, and calculation answers will be added to your account as a digital download. You can use it on your device or print it.

Real Consumer Math

I am so so impressed with this curriculum! This Consumer Math is packed with everything teens need to know to live independently after graduation. I really like the idea of the projects in the book which will be great hands on learning. I didn't realize this was geared for 10th grade and above, so we will wait to use this during the 25-26 homeschool year. In the meantime, we'll use it as a reference book since my son is working this summer and the tax info will be useful to him. Thank you so much Not Consumed!

Great resource for consumer math

I love this curriculum for consumer math. I got it for my rising senior after comparing several programs. This one has all the areas I want to focus on along with a Biblical worldview. I can’t wait to go through it with my son.

So excited to be doing this math with my high school son this year. It is filled with so much good information that will be beneficial to him for the rest of his life. I love Not Consumed products and how she always incorporates godly wisdom in all she creates!!

Patiently waiting

I ordered this curriculum in lat May and received it a couple weeks later in June. I'm patiently waiting until our school year starts in August to dive in. It looks to be exactly what I've been looking for to use with my 2 high school girls.

Exactly what I was looking for!

I have a degree in Finance and have worked in the banking industry for over 10 years. I was looking for a finance course for my high schooler and couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for until I found this! So perfectly simplistic . And I say that as the best compliment. This is exactly what ever teenager needs to know, in a way that is written for them to understand.

Consumer Math

My daughter is 17. She has Asperger’s/HFA. She is a life long unschooler. Recently she asked me for a life skills course that could teach her all the things she would need to know, in order to eventually live independently someday. I saw this book advertised on Facebook, and thought it looked like it would work for her. I’m so glad I bought it! It has all the topics she was asking about, and much more. And it is presented in an easy to understand manner. I’m so happy we found this book!

Win win!

I had just purchased a stewardship math from another well known Christian publishing company, when I got the email about his new math coming out. After looking at it online I decided to order it to compare with what I had. Wow! This is going to be so much more meaningful and concise than the other course. I love how the lessons are fully applicable to your student. It doesn't just show how math is applicable in day to day life with random examples. The numbers are directly input from your student based on a potential career option, for example. It allows them to use math functionally, while allowing them an opportunity to research topics that will directly impact their near future. I love that it is just one spiral bound workbook with scripture built right in. I pray that it will be the perfect solution for my daughter's senior year math next year. If so, I'll be back for three more copies for my other children!

I love it!

I purchased this to consider for a co-op class I will be teaching this fall. I love, love love it! I cannot wait to use it in my class. The projects are fun, engaging, and useful. No boring tests or worksheets-yay!!! The Christian Worldview was important to me and that is woven all throughout. I will update once I have used it but so far I am thrilled with what I am seeing.
