And pardon me: for those of you that can't do math, the November 2020 election was absolutely stolen.  Very basic math. Trump won in a landslide, so did a lot of others...this is why YOU need math.  

\\\***/// 

Hours of training await you.  Put your password in and start learning how to teach math using base ten blocks.   There are several training sessions on the other side that show you how to present supposedly difficult concepts with ease. Plus trainings that show you how and when to present topics like algebra and multiplication. 

After going through the training on this page your confidence will skyrocket and you will realize you can teach math to your own sons and daughters or to students in your neighborhood or online. All you need is a set of blocks...the market is exploding. 

This isn't just one training. It is a compilation of multiple trainings i've done over the years. Now you don't have to wait for the next one. They are all right here in one place. One password opens hours of instruction that will make you a great teacher too. 

You will have a difficult time find training like this at any price.  Other trainers in the Mortensen method are retiring, most of the people doing math this way were trained by me. And no one is building websites to teach you this method and they aren't making many videos either.  i look forward to the day when people put videos of their classes and lessons with base ten blocks online.

If you are new here, or got here by a search or clicking a link on twitter or what have you, here is a 90 second video to give you an idea how powerful base ten blocks coupled with this Methodology can be. Caution: I am told watching these 90 seconds can "change your math life." Some people get awfully upset to see how easy math can be.  Others get excited and happy because they realize that the math in their homeschool is about to change drastically for the better. Please explore and discover more on this website.

New simplified organization.

If you get a "Lifetime Passport" you get ALL 4, that means you get Four (4) PASSWORDS, but you can't put your "sitewide" password in here...well you CAN, it just won't work.

MOD 1: Series A+ Easy PZ + PDFs  $100.00

MOD 2: Parent Teacher Training + Winter Training  $400.00

Learn To Use Base Ten Blocks

The point of this site and Module Two, parent/teacher training is to teach ANYBODY to be able to produce students like that, not just me and not just Jerry Mortensen or a select few others. Over the last 35 years i've pretty much proven that i can teach just about anybody Mathematics and not only that, i can teach almost anybody how to teach Math effectively using this method.  It's not me, it's the method.

Once you learn, i encourage you to teach others besides your own children. If you are a teacher, you're going to love these trainings.

Shasta testi

If YOU want to learn how to be effective with base ten blocks i'm here to teach you how; you take it as far as you want. i don't care if you are "just a mom", a teacher, or whatever if you want to learn: this is the place. i've had several high school "math phobiacs" end up making a living tutoring math. True story, bro. 

This website was designed to give you years of activities & instruction, You aren't going to get through it all in a weekend, or even a summer, even with binge watching.  i am told some people watch the videos several times...

The problem now, which I find quite humorous, is that I have TOO MUCH STUFF and people feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start.  .

LOL! How about clicking the "Getting Started" tab? Things have been reorganized to make it easier for you to get going.

Start on the getting started page, review the Concepts Page and EZ PZ Overview & then go through the modules... 

I have had little sympathy because when I started it was the exact opposite: there was no training (ZERO) and then for a few years the $500.00 kit came with four VHS tapes...you wanted training? You had to fly to Idaho. Get a hotel, IF Jerry felt like having one and it was not guaranteed he'd show up on time....

Now you get HOURS of vid for FREE and at the moment there are MANY hours of exclusive training you won't get elsewhere, + I'm always adding more.  Hurricane Training for example. This page has its own password, (you get the password for this training too). Otherwise training is accessed using the MODULE II password.

Here is a page of videos including a ONE HOUR OVERVIEW.

Yes, it's "a lot of stuff" but math is a pretty big subject and how to teach it using base ten blocks isn't going to be covered on a short webpage with a one hour video.

If you have the Module Two parent teacher training Password just click ENTER and you are in, but perhaps you would like to watch a few minutes of it first so...

Here are a few more excepts:

Short excerpt form a 75 minute training...

This is 11 minutes out of 75 minutes of a training i did. Audio and video quality is poor because it's a screencast, the original is much better quality as you'll soon see. Was supposed to be an hour training, this is from about 40 minutes in to 51 and went another half hour after that.

i'm famous for going long not short even though in the vid i mention stopping after 50 minutes, that would be a pretty rare occasion...

Another short excerpt showing how compound teaching effects understanding and "number sense." How about gaining an understanding of basic concepts? For example, multiplication and division are inverse functions. And how about understanding what division IS. 

On a similar note, I had a room full of 50 teachers that I asked why we invert and multiply. No one would answer, One because they didn't want to look foolish in front of their peers but two because most of them have no idea & had just memorized the rule like you did.  In my teacher training you find out why we invert and multiply, in fact i direct your discovery of this simple concept. 

If you want more training like this just get the Module Two password. If you bought a Lifetime Password just email me and I'll send you this one FREE. The lifetime pass is now four passwords ($999.00) or you can buy modules separately as you see above..

Here is an short excerpt form an almost 2 hour training. We talked about subtraction, negative numbers, how to use algebra to bring the points home and more.

This training was GREAT because it had parents who were afraid to do algebra and "advanced" math with their kids (6 and 10) because they were not confident but after ONE, 1 hour training and the training on the other side plus the material on my other password protected pages they are having FUN and their favorite time is, of course, MATH TIME.

Homeschooling parents are thrilled when kids ASK FOR algebra, because math is fun, especially algebra.

It's no exaggeration, these passwords can change everything.

Take Advantage Of The Free Material First.

But before you break down and buy a password maybe you should spend some hours on my blog and this website exploring, reading and watching videos, all for FREE...or at leaste peruse them so you get an idea of how much you are getting and going to get for your money. The blog posts get old but they never go out of date. Really: people are amazed.

The trainings are for parents and teachers who are already fairly familiar with base ten blocks and want more training on the methodology...although even if you are brand new here those three vids up there should answer a few questions.

If you haven't already seen this page, spend a little time here, (and yes I know my fractions page really needs work).

It's a page called Base 10 Blocks Best Use, and it is designed to show you a few tidbits and entice you to poke around the house of math. Seriously, you can spend hours learning how to use your blocks and watching them in use not just in theory with real live students (which is invaluable in and of itself) without ever spending a dime.

"So, I am absolutely flabbergasted by the stuff I am learning just hanging out in the House of Math like four to five hours (literally) per day! Before the little one gets up, I'm on. Nap time, I'm on. After bedtime, I'm on with toothpicks bracing my eyelids. Even before purchasing the passwords! It's like a crash course re-education, and I am infinitely grateful..."

The Difference Between Theory And Practice.

I've been to several trainings for various things and anybody can tell you, "there's theory, and then there's practice". On this site you get both. What's on the other side is theory and method as opposed to the blog and most of the rest of website which is pretty much all practice: you SEE the students learning in real time, unrehearsed.

The point is, before you dive in and spend money on training or passwords digest some of the free material first. If you already have some experience and want more, get the password(s) below.


 And here is 40 minutes of free training on presenting addition and subtraction along with problem solving to your students or children. Follow the links and watch the videos, they give you the nuts and bolts; "how to" using the blocks. The training on the other side of this page is more about concepts and methodology than actual hands on training with blocks although there is plenty of that. Keep in mind that we could just as easily have started factoring polynomials but most of you are stuck in the mindset that we have to start with addition...

Lifetime Options:

***Unlimited Lifetime Access:

Passport 4 Passwords + AC = All four passwords plus the Algebra Course.  Basically all of my passwords for a one time fee of $1249.00.  You will also get the crash course and Hurricane Training and all of my books.

Passport 4 Passwords $999.00 = All four passwords. You will also get the crash course and Hurricane Training and all of my books. But no Algebra Course. You can always buy it separately for $250.00 if you buy all four passwords. 

PDF Only (MOD I) $100.00 = Module One. PDFs and Books and more PDFs. You get the series A manuals, my books and the EZ PZ Overview. You will also get the Crash Course and Hurricane Training. This module has all ten Series A Manuals online plus my books and workbooks, as well as worksheets for learning how to write numbers, pdfs explaining the method and make it EZ PZ, pdfs for practicing concepts.  A plethora of PDFs all in on place. Most of them have explanatory videos to go along with them so you get best use out of them.  It will take you quite a while to download and print it all.  This has an entry page. 

Training (MOD II) $400.00 = Module Two. Training you won't get anywhere else. You will also get the Crash Course and Hurricane Training and all of my books. Module one and two are a great combination. You will learn how to teach math using base ten blocks whether you are planning to homeschool or a side hustle, this Module will put you well ahead of any competition. Best of all the videos are fun...they may not be exactly entertaining, but they certainly are engaging. i get great results so you will get great results because i teach you how and the theory behind it, in other words how and WHY.  This page has an entry page. 

SiteWide (MOD III) $250.00 = Module Three is the most bang for your buck. It isn't so much a module with an entry page as a collection of pages. When in doubt try the Mod III password. Coupled with Module One, you basically get my website from 10 years ago before i added all the parent/teacher training and the so called "advanced" pages.  Spend time on these pages and training will be a breeze. Module Three puts theory into practice. Module Two gives you theory and some practice, this module is all theory in practice right in front of your eyes, you see and hear the children learning in real time. You can hear the ah-ha moments...the lessons are unrehearsed with real students. They are fun because learning is fun and watching others learn is fun too. 

"Advanced" (Module IV) $250.00 = i say "advanced" because Module Four is higher level math, but really you are still just creatively applying the five basic concepts. It has however come to my attention that other curriculums are not using the blocks to teach upper level algebra, and resort to symbols only in their books. i put the pictures back in and show you what the symbols mean and what the problems look like. This greatly enhances speed and efficiency of learning as well as making abstract concepts accessible to kinesthetic learners who can build the problems from the drawings. Visual learners love this method because they can see the symbols and operations, which makes it fun. 

Bonus.

Once you finish the training on this website, you will be light years ahead of your peers. including teachers who graduate with Masters Degrees that required less than three credit hours of mathematics.  They have no idea why we invert multiply when doing division of fractions and could never derive the quadratic equation because like me, they were just told to memorize the formula...And most of them are never exposed to ideas like this:

Testimonials:

"I don't say awesome....but this is awesome!" ~PS CO.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Of course "nobody" buys your training it's only 15 bucks {price is currently $400.00, but you get way more stuff than when she wrote this.} so they think it's s*#t, and there's no way for you to tell them this is probably the best thing on the internet when it comes to learning how to teach math...they'll never believe you--that they can get this for basically no money. No Way! They are used to paying way more and getting way less. I can't believe it, so why should they? 15 bucks? Can't be any good."~ from a training that didn't make it to video here.

It is a steal for $400.00 for unlimited lifetime access to all this training. Plus it is unique, no one else trains you like i do.

"I'm so glad that I have found your website. It has truly made a difference in how my daughter and I approach math while we homeschool. I've finished the teacher training videos and have watched many of your other videos and screencasts. I'm working my way through your website. Thank you!"~ SG, USA.
