I thought of Rod & Staff also. The third grade textbook the binding could be cut be cut and spiral bound so they could work in the textbook as a workbook. Unfortunately the 4th grade book isn't spaced out enough to do it. I truely believe Rod & Staff to be the best so far besides not being a workbook. I heard that MUS is revising this year. Does anyone know if they are planning to add more review? I thought MUS was weak on review when I used it years ago.

Looking for a math program for my two FASD children. Don't want a spiral program, needs a lot of repetition, in a workbook form and a slower pace. Any ideas?

Thanks! Didn't know what MEP was.

I keep on seeing people posting how they like MEP math. What program is that?

My other concern with MUS is since the books are topically they will not be introduced to fractions or decimals for many years and I need them to at least get an 6% on the math portion of testing or we can have major problems with the homeschool laws here in Colorado. I could see my daughter spending a few years on Multiplication and another two years on Division before she truely understands them. That means she would be 8th or 9th grade by the time she even starts to learn about fractions or decimals.

Does MUS have enough review? When I did it with my son many years ago it didn't have enough review problems for him to retain the previous lessons. Do you have your children watch the videos?

I am homeschooling two 10yo children with FASD. I am looking for a math program that is very drill orientated, plenty of repetition, mastery not spirial and very little abstract problems. My daughter does not like using manipulatives and needs constant review so I don't think Math-U-See would work. Saxon's sprial method would not work with her either because it takes many lessons on the same topic for her to get it. I have been looking at Rod & Staff and think it would work except it doesn't have workbooks after second grade and they both hate writing down the problems. My son has fine motor skill problems so writing all the problems is very tiring for him. Abeka is a mastery, repetious workbook program but I heard it can move fast. Any programs out there that is similar to Rod & Staff but in a workbook form?

So am I hearing this right? ALL is not being published this fall?

I have been homeschooling for the past 12 years. I have two biological children that I've homeschooled through 8th grade and they are doing well in high school. I am also in the process of homeschooling two other kiddos. I am thinking about bring my adopted FASD twins home to homeschool next year for 3rd grade. I would like to know if it is even possible to use the WTM suggested resources with children with severe special needs? I have been using FLL and WWE with my younger child and love using this method but I am scared to even try it with children with special needs. I believe that Saxon Math would be the best for them because of the constant review. But want to know what other suggestions you might have for Language Arts.:confused:
