It's definitely not challenging at this point, but it's covering just the things we were missing. <br /><br />I agree, my kids LOVE the manipulative set too!<br /><br />I really do like Rays for truly understanding the grammar of math. My son surprises me at how much he really understands how numbers work (for being 5 years old). Something that helped me understand how to use it was getting the workbooks that go along with it. Have you used those? Now, I'm not going to say that it's a 'fun' curriculum, but I think the way it gets a child to truly understand arithmetic is fantastic!Amy Mazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052176651841122314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872359089210030417.post-83481876501356427422014-01-18T15:26:28.607-05:002014-01-18T15:26:28.607-05:00We use Singapore Math Essential Math Kindergarten....We use Singapore Math Essential Math Kindergarten. We just started book B. Some people say it is too simple but it is inexpensive and is working for my daughter. I feel she will be ready for Singapore Math Primary Math 1A and B next year.Rebeccanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872359089210030417.post-34150104637811102802014-01-14T22:08:49.063-05:002014-01-14T22:08:49.063-05:00I love Saxon Math!

My children used the linking cubes for math, for creating horses, knights, people, etc. The teddy bears were also played to death. I'm about to order a new set for my youngest children.<br /><br />We tried Ray's arithmetic, but it didn't work well for us. What is the secret of your success?Sara Dennishttp://classicallyhomeschooling.com/noreply@blogger.com
