JFSinIL Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 My youngest just doesn't "get" Videotext, which worked so well for her older brother. The Teaching Textbook pre algebra I got for her is too dull - and I am NOT a math person. I need a "teacher in a can" to explain stuff. Just got off the phone from ordering Chalkdust. Sigh. Anyone want to buy Videotext for half-price???? :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoggirl Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I do not think you will be disappointed. We love Chalkdust! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gretchen in NO. CA Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Good Luck with the new program!:) I am spending this week praying about having my oldest do either Chalkdust Algebra (which I would have to buy) or use MUS Algebra (which I already have). The price difference is huge, but I have heard that MUS isn't rigorous enough. But my son is not mathy and won't major in anything that needs a lot of math so maybe I'll be fine with MUS. I just need to make up my mind!:confused: Gretchen in NO. CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen in CO Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Gretchen, MUS and Chakdust both have great resale if that helps with the price. Another thought for a non-mathy child is to maybe do the MUS first, then do the Chalkdust. It would make the CD easier since it would be part review/reinforcement. You could resale the MUS after you finish it to help pay for the CD. Getting through the math sequence isn't as important at "getting" the math.

Karen in CO Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Not the video-text, but hold the CD for me. I will need it in a few year. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
