ProudGrandma Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I am looking for the best price...I have looked at Rainbow resource, Singapore's site, CBD and Amazon. Is there any other place I should look to compare prices? Also, for you who have used this curriculum, if there are any manipulatives I need to buy, what would they be?

bluemongoose Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 The manipulatives we have used the most are: The Judy clock, a scale, yardstick, ruler, things to count,flashcards, an abacus, and 100s board. We are still in 1A though...so we may be using other stuff later. We went ahead and purchase all the items for the level we are on according to singapores site: http://www.singaporemath.com/articles.asp?id=123 but we have not used it all yet...

amsunshine Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 The best prices I've found, including the shipping costs, are on RR. However, I have to say that I've always gotten the materials the fastest by ordering directly from singaporemath.com. It costs a little bit more, though. Without knowing what level you are looking at, I couldn't say what manipulatives you might need. Singapore's list, posted above, is pretty thorough, though.

AudreyTN Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I always buy from http://www.BestEduSource.com They usually ship the next day and their prices are competitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasmama Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I buy SM through Sonlight. We have not used manipulatives but my guys are really mathy and never seemed to need them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
