AnneGG Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Do I want the 2020 or 1992 edition? I was at the homeschool store today but they didn’t have a full set of either edition. I flipped through a ‘92 TG and it seemed fine but the workbooks for 2020 seem a little less dreary. Then again, I can probably grab the ‘92 second hand for a little cheaper. Idk. Anyone used both editions and have opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Servant4Christ Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 The 2020 version is better, imo. I spoke to R&S back before the updates were made and was told the newer editions were being made to help students make a smoother transition from their 3rd grade math to 4th grade math. The updated 2nd and 3th grade will be harder than the previous edition and the 4th grade (when it is released) will be a bit easier. My plan for my younger children will be to use the new updated editions of grades 1-3 because I've personally used their previous edition of 3rd (along with the supplemental workbook) and the jump from that to their 4th grade was harder than it should have to be. I'm not planning on buying the newer 4th grade edition when it becomes available because I already have all the grades (through 8th), at this point. 😂 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneGG Posted August 10, 2023 Author Share Posted August 10, 2023 @Servant4Christthank you! Do you think I could skip part 1 for a child that has math facts 0-20 mastered? Our main issue is regrouping and multi digits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clocks, money, skip counting, simple story problems, and smaller basic fractions.... Give me a minute and I'll add a couple of pictures of lessons toward the last part of the first workbook (from my TM) Edited August 10, 2023 by Servant4Christ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This should give you a better idea of what's covered toward the end of the first workbook. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneGG Posted August 11, 2023 Author Share Posted August 11, 2023 @Servant4Christ wow! Thank you so much for doing this. We will definitely need to start from the beginning. You saved me from making a big mistake. I’m excited now. Hooray for no math drama! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Bean Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Umm...that kitten word problem would have made mine burst into tears! What can I say? We live in the city, not on a farm. 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisdomandtreasures Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 There's a similar problem with dying animals in CLE that always makes my brain play the record scratch sound. You guys couldn't say that the kittens went to new homes?! 😄 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
