ruth Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 My 5th grader loves the looks of BJ or any pretty work book. I love MUS because it's concept upon concept. but dc is really hindered by the plain text:confused:. Is there a program that is like MUS, very thorough and orderly, but that has the pretty pages? thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2abcd Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Maybe Horizons. I think it only goes up to 5th or 6th grade, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BizyPenguin Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Using CLE (which has nice subtle color on the pages) and if you want to make it more appealing just buy some stickers to decorate the pages. Check my blog for a review of CLE. Tami used MUS and has happily switched to CLE with great success. All the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa in CA Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 We use BJU, and like it, but starting in 5th grade it is a textbook. Your dc would have to write their answers on regular paper. BJU has math workbooks only until grade 4. Having said that, my son seems to write alot of his answers in the textbook. :-) It is only the long math problems like division, factor trees, etc. that he really needs paper. I wish BJU had workbooks for the higher grades, but this really has not hindered us as much as I thought it might. He has yet to complain about it.
