Math in Focus: Singapore Math Grade K

We used math in focus for homeschooling because it is what our local school uses and my older child used before as well. It is nicely put together, colorful, and has many areas for coloring in, which is always a positive for me and my visual learners. That being said, I feel like this might be a little too easy. My kindergartener had zero math knowledge prior to kindergarten, we started doing this math almost halfway through the year after using other resources and wanting a solid book with everything right there. We flew through all of these books (there are 4 in all for kindergarten) in a couple of weeks and are moving on to the first grade lessons next. No complaints really, if this is the level they are doing in school I am glad that we can easily work alongside that same level, but I think it could be more challenging.

We have used this with our older two children. Our youngest was in preschool until last week. This is a FANTASTIC resource with everything you need to teach a small child math. Our youngest started working on her math right away.

I went looking online for books to keep my 5 year old occupied and engaged until she can get into kindergarten, without having to spend a lot of money. With the exception of a couple of activities in this book, we were able to navigate this without even the instruction book to go with it. Great book for the price, full color and easy to use.

Lightning fast shipping! Item as described! Thank you :) :)

I'm using the Math in Focus Kindergarten workbooks for my child's kindergarten math program. The complete program is VERY expensive (ridiculously so, when you look at other options, like Singapore Essentials or Horizons). However, we have not needed the Teacher's Guide or other components (and were able to find the 4 workbooks for about $35 total through Amazon 3rd party sellers). This makes it comparable to other workbook-based programs. We have done most of Singapore Essentials A and just weren't enamored -- they were all black & white and felt fairly repetitive.The MIF K books begin very gentle with counting, number recognition, shapes. In fact, I think the first two books in the program (there are 4 total) could probably be used as a K4 math (though I don't think it would last a full school year). The four workbooks are very thin, most about 80 pages. The pages are full-color and attractive -- there are many 2-page spreads meant to be looked at and discussed by teacher & student (almost like a storybook). The drawings are really great, cartoon-like. My daughter loves it. I do think this program is not as "rigorous" as other homeschool K programs (Horizons). By the end of the 4th workbook, the child is adding and subtracting up to 5.I have looked at a LOT of K and 1st grade programs. My opinion is that this Kindergarten math would be suitable if you plan on following it with: Math in Focus, Singapore, BJU, CLE, Rod & Staff or Math Mammoth. These programs begin gently in Grade 1 with a scope & sequence appropriate for following MIF K.

We received a workbook that was almost entirely filled in, many of the pages colored on with crayon. I thought i was ordering a new workbook, but what we received wasn't even in good condition.

This keeps my 5 years old daughter busy ........

Ótimo para crianças de 4 anos.
