MUS and Singapore

[Marsha]

We are using MUS and I am considering adding Singapore.
Does anyone do this?
What materials would I need for SIngapore?

Also, what about my almost 7th grader...what Singapre math is there for that grade?

Thanks

OK, I went back and searched and answered my own question.
I have have a headache all day and am not thinking clearly.

Thanks

I can't answer for the 7th grader. Haven't gotten that far.

But I was thinking of doing the same. You only need the Singapore workbooks, which I already ordered and received, because I feel they were inexpensive enough to give it a whirl. I'm thinking of using Singapore until we change concepts then going to MUS for the understanding. I just ordered the next level of MUS, because I thought I shouldn't change what works, but then found we were in the same mathematical spot as Singapore in Beyond in our lesson plans. I figured somebody was trying to tell me something. Plus, it looks like Carrie did the TM work for Singapore by adding the fun stuff. I'm going to try to transition to Singapore as written in Beyond, but I won't return MUS in case it doesn't work out. MUS pulled my dd out of phobia, so I don't want to can it. But I would like to simplify my curriculum, so for the workbook price of Singapore, I decided to try it. When we get to a new concept, I'll leaf through MUS or at least try to follow with that, sowe don't wander far off if we need to go back. Mr. Demme in MUS gives me some peace, but I do find teaching it pretty boring.
