visitor Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Which kindergarten math curriculum did you choose for your AL? I have Singapore Earlybird but I believe DS will need something more hands on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilajoy Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 My kindergarten daughter is doing Horizons Math (on weekends and then over the summer). She completed Horizons Math K, Book 1, and we've decided to skip Book 2 and go on to Horizons Math Grade 1, Book 1. She just started it a few weeks ago and so far, so good. I like Horizons for the built-in spiral review and for its bright colors and variety of activities, which my daughter enjoys. I do feel it's a little weak on conceptual math and word problems, but the program she's doing in school emphasizes that more and I will supplement for that as needed down the line.

underthebridge Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 My kindergartner uses MIF at school and I am supplementing at home with Miquon (orange and red) and Singapore IP 1A. We are also using a variety of board games, card games, and logic puzzles. Over the summer, we will continue at the same pace, which is about 15 minutes, five times a week. My main focus is developing number sense and getting my kindergartner very comfortable with talking about math. We have C rods and base ten blocks at the table and they are available for use at all times. I used the same materials with my now 3rd grader and I am very happy with the results. Miquon is so different from any of the traditional math curriculums, so it felt interesting and novel, rather than just a rehash of what is done already at school.
