  1. I used KTM Bk. 2 when my girls were 3rd grade. It helped me lay a good foundation in certain topics such as the distributive property in multiplication, factors and multiples, prime numbers. My girls are currently in 4th grade, and I am going through Bk. 3 right now. Book 3 is helping me to explain better how to model word problems mathematically, and how to solve the mathematical equations step by step using algebra. Kitchen Table Math Bks. 2 and 3 have been invaluable resources for me as a teacher. Hope this helps.
  2. I started using Book 2 about 6 months ago with my rising 4th graders. Basically I read the relevant chapter of the book, and I teach my girls the theory, using examples from the book. For example, I am doing factors and prime numbers these days. Based on the recommendations of Dr. Wright, I made a small poster of the prime numbers up to 50 so my girls could recall them more easily. I have to make another poster of the squares and cubes of numbers. We also worked through the Sieve of Eratosthenes together on paper, and my girls noticed that it was only prime numbers that fell through the sieve. For problems on factors, my girls worked at the problems in 4A Singapore Math IP. Using the Kitchen Table Math series has been very helpful to me as my children's Math teacher.
  3. Dr. Wright's Kitchen Table Math series. Right now I am teaching factorization to my rising 4th graders using Book 2, while using Singapore Math for exercises and problems.
  4. Found some interesting titles I'm going to check out. Thanks for sharing!
  5. I've been afterschooling my rising 4th graders since they were in 1st grade. I use a variety of resources and materials which include Singapore Math, MEP, Kitchen Table Math, MCT, Wordly Wise 3000, Writing With Ease, Kilgallon Sentence Composing, Thinking Through Grammar, Jacobs Ladder Reading Comprehension, Reading Detective ....
  6. This is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing.
