Soror Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Dd was using CLE 5 which I had bought a few years back and used some with ds. I just got in CLE 6 in the mail and it sure seems that the lessons are shorter. Did they update the books recently or is that just particular for this level or am I just crazy?

I'd be really interested to know, though, because sometimes while cruising old threads, as one does, I see people saying that CLE lessons are too long and it always strikes me as very incongruous with my experience with 2-5. Heretofore I'd just chalked it up to different strokes. Well, it looks like the date of my grade 5 books is 2014 and the new 6th grade ones is 2016. It seems there are fewer pages on some lessons and just fewer problems on the pages. Edited December 12, 2018 by soror Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByGrace3 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I wondered this as well. I had always heard how long CLE math lessons were, but we are new to CLE math this year (grade 6) and this has not been our experience so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TracyP Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 FWIW, I have used CLE since 2009 and have never experienced long lessons. Also, I just ordered grade 7 and my AK still matches from 5 yrs ago. Grade 2 has also not changed, so I'm guessing the 600s haven't either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, so maybe it's in my head or perhaps we've just hit some shorter lessons. Dd feels they are shorter and that's a good thing! It felt like Level 5 had long lessons but not as long as Saxon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paige Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 The lessons in the beginning of the grade or even each book are shorter than those towards the end. Are you comparing the beginning of 6th to the end of 5th? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
