My daugh uses it , I will quote her here “it isn’t done too quickly and you will fully understand the concepts and you will smile doing your math”
My daugh has learning diffabilities. and she really struggled with math… we bought the best of the best, so to speak and always came up short . After doing mucho research, we realised they were all the same, the very spiral method, that SM talks about…which explains why we always came to the same dead end…I have a 7 yr old that we have decided to delay his math entry via textbooks and follow SM recommendations…
By all means take advantage of the discounts…You won’t be sorry. But keep in mind this is not a program with color and bells and whistles and in todays media stimulated environ that could pose a problem with a child b/c they only have known that way….
Best wishes
