Can CLE math fact cards be easily shared??

[diaperjoys]

Or should I get a set for each child? My 1st and 2nd graders will be using CLE next year. We already have a set of generic flash cards, but it sounds like it will be worth it to use the CLE set, because of the way it is keyed to the lessons. Should I get two sets for two kids? Or can they share without too much trouble??

I'm buying an extra set. They are labeled on the back with letters. One set of letters are black for first grade and the other set of letters are red for 2nd grade. You start putting the cards in daily sections according the the letters on the back. It would be very difficult to keep them separated by grade.

Something else that would make it very difficult:

Example: The first grade "H" cards my be a,b,c or d cards for 2nd grade. In other words, the "H" cards are not the "H" cards for 2nd grade. Does that make sense? Let me try again!!!:DThere are 7 1st grade "H" cards. These same 7 cards are labeled in sets A-F for 2nd grade.

 

You need 2 set.:leaving:

I'd get two sets. When you start doing the flash cards for the older grades, it throws in "set K" and such. I only had one set and was using part of set K for 1st grade because the "K" designation was for 2nd graders. It was confusing and I finally bought two sets. SO.MUCH.BETTER.

We've completed all of first grade and almost all of second. You really can't keep them organized for first and second at the same time. I

 

f money is an issue, I'd get the cle set for 1st grade and use a generic set for 2nd grade. You can always write down which facts go in which chunk (A,B,C) for second grade and write those letters on your generic set. The letters for second grade are listed on the opposite side of the first grade set. Does that make sense???

I got two sets as well. It's made life much easier. Once set is set up for my dd & the other is set up for my ds. I don't see how I would do it with just one set without a lot of hassle.

imo, there is no need for more than one set. :) but, we really don't use our set.
