LauraBeth475 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I want to use Miquon to supplement Singapore with some hands on work over the next few years with my 2 daughters, who are about to start PriMath 1A and 2A in the fall. Any suggestions about how the content lines up between the two series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawberryjam Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Following cause I'm curious about Miquon too ... but just FYI, Singapore is very hands on. The hands on stuff is all in the Home Instructor Guides. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73349 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Somewhere there is a chart with how they line up. (I'll come back with the link later if I find it.) I just alternated books, which is much easier and provides some review. ETA: I only have a paper copy, not digital. It has evidently been removed from the Files section of the Miquon Yahoo! Group. If you want to PM me your email address, I should be able to scan it and send it to you as a PDF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie of KY Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I just alternate book. Miquon introduces certain things much earlier like multiplication, division, parentheses. I wouldn't worry about lining them up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spy Car Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 You don't want to line them up, Not necessary or desirable IMO. Bill 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowergirl159 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I use Singapore as our main program and supplement with Miquon. We do our usual maths work in Singapore then they also do one or two pages each day in Miquon. Miquon only takes us 5-10mins a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FO4UR Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 HSers have been pairing Singapore and Miquon for a long, long time. It's a great pairing. You don't necessarily need to spend any time matching the books up. It's not needed. Especially in those younger years, let the child DO Miquon as Miquon is supposed to be done (skipping around and discovering new concepts), and then use Singapore as a reviewing/solidifying/applying resource. The result is that you'll be skipping around in Singapore too to piggy back Miquon. Use sticky notes to keep you place in each topic. It's all good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
