Sorry for so many questions everyone. I have been using the classic curriculum arithmetic workbooks that are keyed to Ray's Arithmetic. Up until this year we've been ok with them however I feel like we are getting bogged down lately. Every year there are four workbooks to complete at approximately 90 pps a piece. So I feel like we are stuck in one place for a long time. I'm wondering about how many pages the singapore books have? Also, my dds are LOVING the hands on arithmetic suggestions in the Beyond guide which is why I actually started considering Singapore. If it is anything like the activities in the guide I know that they will love it. TIA

I just looked at my 2a and 2b work book has 170 pages
there is a range of problems per page from as few as 2 to as many as 20 (it was a fact family page)
You only do 1-2 pages per day with the hands on activities it is usually only one page.

I'm loving it with my DD2

Thanks! I think I'll look at the placement tests to get an idea of how the problems are presented.

We did Ray's for a year, and we enjoyed going back to Singapore. The hands-on activities in the HOD guides are wonderful, and they make it super easy for dc to do the Singapore workbooks. HTH as you consider what you'd like to do.

In Christ,
