wehave8 Posted July 7, 2017 Author Share Posted July 7, 2017 Order placed! Well, in the past 2 weeks, I've resisted the 'send' button every day! I asked here, on RS fb page, and called the RS office many times. I finally feel I understand which RS pieces go together. 4th gr. ds: I had thought of going all RS (Level C), but I decided to stick with my MM decision, adding RS in on Fridays, and throughout the week some if it works out that way. IF we feel we can handle full levels down the road, it is no loss. I already had the MM Light Blue Series (grades 1-6) from a few years ago from Homeschool Buyers Co-op in pdf. 7th & 8th gr. dss: Will stay in VideoText Mon.-Thurs. and do RS with us on Fridays. This is what I ordered: Transitions Lessons Transitions Worksheets Math Cards Game Kit Fractions Kit AL Abacus (so they all have their own) With 15% dicount from intent to buy from the CHAP Convention, it wasn't that bad. $133.45 and free shipping. I AM DONE WITH ORDERS! WHEWWWWW!!! :) Pam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixpix5 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Congratulations!! You will love those math games. My kids beg to get the cards out and play. In fact, as I sit here drinking coffee my 6 year old is on the floor playing short chain solitaire :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeAgain Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Whoohoo! We just placed our order today, too. :) And I have to say thank you. :lol: After your questions about RS, I looked into it further for ds. We had planned something different for next year, but after reading through their samples and everything on here, I gave ds final choice between the one we had previously picked out and RS. He chose theirs. I think we'll enjoy it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomeAgain Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 What did you go with? Pam RS level D. It was between D and E, but I really liked how material was presented and thought he could use the extra work with multiplication before moving on. I offered him that or Beast Academy 3, which he had seen in person earlier and fell in love with. After reading through the online samples, though, he picked Right Start. I may still pickup BA 3A so he can play with shapes, but RS will be our main curriculum this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam Are the olders just doing RS for fun on Fridays? VideoText comes after Rightstart, would they be past most of the material?
