If you use MEP...

I am curious to know how many people use it alone.

 

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

I voted 'totally alone', but I actually just started using Ray's Arithmetic as well. MEP doesn't need it, but my ds loves Ray's. We have used MEP alone for 2 years now and love it as it is. There is plenty of facts drill and practice. More so than Singapore IMO.

Because I require SOME math to be done M-F no matter if it's a school day or not, we do two programs. While we do MEP to near completion, SM is my oldest's main program. Next year, I anticipate switching to BA with SM taking the back seat.

I said "we add word problems" but really, we use MEP alone and occasionally use Zaccarro's Primary Challenge Math.

We use MEP 5 days a week, Miquon the sixth day, and Primary Grade Challenge Math most everyday. I don't think MEP needs supplementation at all. However, my dd enjoys PGCM and usually pulls the book out on her own. I do Miquon, because *I* really love and value their method, and want to continue to use it.

I've been using it as my eldest's sole curriculum for about 6 months. I can't imagine trying to add anything else--it's such a full program. It feel more comprehensive than Singapore (which I've used through early elementary with all my kids).

 

I do have a set of Murderous Maths books that my kids have started reading in their free time, so I suppose that is dd's math "supplement".

We use it as a supplement (using chunks of it as a break from Singapore) or as one of two "main" curricula (with Miquon).
