fourisenough Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Just about to start MM2 with DD6. I'll add in some Miquon for fun and XtraMath to drill facts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carriede Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 MM2 with c-rods and base 10 blocks when needed. I do skip around to keep things interesting - example: DS6 is doing book 2b right now, but one page from the measurement chapter one page from the addition/subtraction chapter.

wendyroo Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 DS is technically in first, but has done Math Mammoth 1-3 and will probably continue on through the rest of the series. We love it. Wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByGrace3 Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Two rounds of 2nd grade here so far -- both used Math Mammoth. 3rd will use it as well when she gets there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

featherhead Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 My daughter is 1st grade this year, but in public school, so I really don't know what she is learning. Next year for second we will do Miquon, and see where that takes us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutTN Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 Right Start C. This student needs more review so we will do MM2 before moving on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbes Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 MM2. We are really enjoying it - did casual math without curriculum for 1st, then transitioned to MM for 2nd. It took a few lessons to get used to the flow because it is different than other curricula I've used, but it's going beautifully now. It makes so much sense in its progression. I tend to cut out about 1/4 of the problems, depending on the topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 19, 2016 Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) I've done TouchMath and Calvert with oldest {had LDs}, Calvert with #2, CLE, Horizons, and R&S with #3 and #4 {not all at the same time!}.

.... Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Mine uses Miquon. She loves it, so we'll continue with it next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Keeper Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 2nd grader #1: used Miquon, Singapore, and MEP combo. Yes, *all* of all three programs. He lived through it. I was trying to rewire his brain. Didn't work. ;) 2nd grader #2: also used Miquon, Singapore, and MEP combo. Yes, *all* of all three programs. He loved it and thrived. He still likes math five years later. :) 2nd grader #3 : crashed and burned with Miquon and Singapore. He HATED the c-rods, and had a very strong aversion to all the colors and graphics in Singapore. Switched to Rod and Staff (and some of MEP) and was much, much happier. I taught R&S using rods and Singapore-like methods. 2nd grader #4: used Miquon, Singapore, MEP, and R&S combo. Really. Not as bad as it sounds. R&S was done orally (for drill and review), Singapore was the main teaching math done daily, and MEP or Miquon would happen every few weeks when she needed a change. This combo worked very well for her. My last two 2nd graders will probably use some variation of the above. Since I already have Miquon, Singapore, MEP, and R&S on the shelf...

Aurelia Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 We used MM2. Not a fan. Too many worksheets and not enough review for my DD. Stuck it out through MM3, then switched to CLE 3 (still too many worksheets, but really solidified math facts and other concepts). I wish we had used something else, like RS, Miquon, or MEP.

MrsRobinson Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Math Mammoth 2 and we love it! I am not mathy at all but I really enjoy math lessons now. The progression of teaching concepts makes so much sense that I feel like Im am finally "getting it" after all these years. Dd does well with whatever I put in front of her so she dos great with MM.

Mergath Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 We use MM with c-rods for our primary program and supplement with Miquon if dd needs more practice with any of the concepts. We use the Monkey Math app for fact practice, and Khan Academy if she needs further explanation or worked examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hands-on-mama Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 Thanks everyone! I just bit the bullet and ordered Singapore standards after much deliberation. CLE just wasn't working anymore. I tried to make it work all last semester. I let her sit with me and look at samples to make the final decision. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
