Stacy in NJ Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Generally speaking Horizons, covers more topics but Singapore offers more depth. Horizons also includes repeated review in each lesson, while Singapore will only reviews at the end of sections or chapters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tree House Academy Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I agree with the pp. Horizons 3 and Singapore 3A/3B are the two I can compare for you. Horizons taught Roman Numerals and Singapore didn't (not in 3 anyway). Otherwise, it was very similar. My oldest son did Horizons 3 over the summer and just literally hated it. We switched to Singapore 3A this fall and he has really loved it. It covered, in depth, multiplication facts and long division as well as addition and subtraction earlier in the book (we actually skipped a lot of that when we started though). We are now getting ready to move on to measurement. I have not seen as much geometry in the level 3 Singapore as I did in the Horizons. It seems they taught angles, rays, and so in the level 3 stuff with Horizons. But I think they are both approximately 1/2 year ahead of a typical public school.
