This is an e-book and a DVD is sent in the post. Melisa shows you how to construct the different forms on the DVD which is very helpful for me.

When I found Melisa's geometry curriculum for grade 5, 6 and 7, I was so excited. Caleb has done the grade 5 geometry so far and has loved it! We will be doing the grade 6 later in the year.
