Good afternoon! Looking ahead to next year, I'm trying to decide if I want to go ahead with CLE 3 or switch to Math Mammoth for my daughter. CLE has worked pretty well for us this year, but it hasn't been without struggles. I like the spiral so she gets lots of review and nothing gets forgotten, really like the focus on memorizing facts, but it seems like the practice problems on new concepts are so few that she never fully "gets" the concepts and doesn't always remember how to do them when it comes up in review...sometimes even much later. And it also seems like she has trouble if the problems aren't EXACTLY like how they are shown in the examples. She understands the procedures if they are "just so," but I think struggles with the actual concepts and the why. I ran into Math Mammoth when I was looking for supplements for some of the things she's still struggling with, but then I got to thinking more about using it as our main curriculum next year, although I know that mastery style programs bother her because if she doesn't catch on right away she gets really, really frustrated, which is part of why the spiral seems to work for her. I realize that I could do CLE and supplement (as I am doing now, not with Math Mammoth, just other worksheets/videos/manipulatives), but I have 4 other younger kids so I'm really trying to simplify if possible. And Homeschool Planet has the Math Mammoth lesson plans. 👏 I'm not sure if my rambling is making any sense. 😅 Those that have used Math Mammoth, how does it prepare kids for middle/high school math? Have you always used it? If not, what did you use before and why did you switch? Where (if anywhere) do you feel it is lacking? I've looked over the samples but I've been pulled in before by samples that I really got excited about and turned out to be total flops for us lol. And I know that it's probably more dependent on *me* and my teaching than the curriculum (it's a tool, not the master, etc.), but I didn't/don't have a solid math foundation and so I need a little more help for this subject. I'm also going to *try,* realizing that it may not be possible, to use the same curriculum, at least in the early years, for all of my kids, and in that sense Math Mammoth would be a great investment! I do think that CLE is a good program, and we've had a lot of success in some areas with it, but there's still a lot of frustration/fighting tears involved sometimes that I could do without. Does anyone have any experiences or advice to help me think it through?
