Re: Should we switch from Singapore?

Jennifer,
I'll be praying over your situation, and for your sweet little guy. It is so hard to see our kiddos struggle. Praying for wisdom and that the Lord encourages both you and your son. Hang in there :)

In love,
Carrie

Re: Should we switch from Singapore?

I am wondering the same thing, so I am so glad you started this post. We are struggling between CLE which is spiral and Singapore which is Mastery based. I have heard both are solid, but just different. We have been going back and forth between the two switching off for the last two years. As a resu...

Re: Dictation in preparing

Thank you all for your replies. It is easy for me to get hung up on grade levels instead of just focusing on progress. My dd struggles with spelling. Thank you for your encouragement. I don't know why I always worry about the standardized testing. I need to just keep working hard with my dd and trus...

Re: Cle language to Rod and Staff

Thanks, Julie! I have been teaching everything in the teacher manual (reviews, how to introduce the lesson, etc.) and then doing all the oral exercises. Finally, I had her completing all the written. I have really loved it so far and my daughter is doing well. However, it was taking a long time. I w...

Cle language to Rod and Staff

We just started using Rod and Staff 4. My daughter is in 4th grade. Prior to that we used CLE 300 series which we completed. The 300 series is equivalent to 3rd grade. My question is, can I go from CLE 3 to Rod and staff 4. She seems to be doing well so far, but we are only 10 lessons in. I'm just a...

Re: do I need to supplement singapore math

Hi! Thank you so much for responding to my cry for help. Ha Ha :D You guys are awesome!! I'm just worried about things like roman numerals, percents, rounding, estimating, and geometry? Will Singapore eventually cover those areas or did I miss it in earlier levels. It just seems like when I look at ...

My daughter will be starting 3rd grade this year and using the Bigger Hearts guide, along with Singapore 2A. We recently switched to Singapore Math in the last 6 months after pulling her out of her last school. She loves Singapore Math and I am so happy about that. However, I am nervous that we have...
