Smithie Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 My DS has a half a year left of first grade. We haven't been thrilled with Singapore. Honestly, I don't care what learns in math for the rest of the year - not that math isn't important, but there are so many awesome and wonderful facets of mathematics for him to explore, and he's already met our state's standards for 1st grade. I want him to LOVE math lessons, and he didn't love Singapore (didn't hate it either). The content covered is less important than an agaging curriculum that fosters enthusiasm for math. So... what do you love for "second grade" math? It could be computer-based or workbook-based, but please Lord not another program with 3 separate books like Singapore. It shouldn't be heavy on manipulatives - other than his abacus he does not care for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
