Hunter Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I think it was only 3rd grade that I had the complete set. I had a couple other used workbooks I got cheap so I could see more of the series. I like the series, but workbooks that required shipping did not work for me. I had students that loved the Amish materials, but they were quick to start and not finish workbooks. It was the shipping that killed me, especially before I pleaded with Rainbow to stock the series. Study Time is a solid option for some families. It gets a thumbs up from me. If a family has room to store bulky workbooks and is putting in an order with Rainbow or Milestone anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I've used most of grades 1 and 2 (Spunky), and then grades 7 and 8. It's a completely fine math option. If you used it all the way through, with the student understanding it, you'd be just as well-off as with anything else. It's just, like, really uninspiring for me iykwim. I love simple. I like old-fashion-y. I like the workbooks and the texts. It just doesn't do it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 If I use too many Amish materials at once, I get this weird disconnected feeling, being immersed in a culture, but not being part of it. I don't get the same feeling as badly when using all vintage, as "vintage" is a much wider group of books. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
