I used the Sadlier program for my son coupled with nightly reading. He was reading on a third grade level in kindergarten. I would recommend the you purchase the student, teacher, and extra practice books to ensure that you are prepared to teach your child to read and provide reinforcement for each topic. I am not a homeschool parent. I purchased the resources from the Sadlier website directly.

I love the look of your printables you made. Do you sell them for me to use in canva to create my own?

I was using Math With Confidence Level 1 and Level 2 with my son and daughter this last year. I have an 8, 6, 4, and 2 year old. And honestly, I tried SOOOO hard to love MWC. And I did enjoy some aspects. It's very sweet to do with young kids, sometimes. But, it was a lot to do with two kids in different levels. I found myself often, almost annoyed with all the physical aspects of it. Like, the writing things on index cards, and searching for the right playing cards to use with this or that game, or having to flip to find the directions in a different part of the book because I didn't remember how to play the game. All while, I hear a 2 year old dumping noodles all over the kitchen floor, or someone else did something to someone! AHHHH. I was like, just wanting to get to the point, and them being able to practice without a game or something. I enjoyed several things about it. I think if they had less physical annoyances (imo) with the manipulative aspects, it would be a little more tolerable for me. I thought we would try to still continue with it. We started back a couple days ago, and I found myself just wanting to chuck it out the window!! UGH!!! It's a little painful. Because it's a good program. Just doesn't suit our family currently, and I really need something hands on, that I can help with, and bring in the manipulatives and games if necessary. I bought Math Mammoth a few months ago to look through and see. And I'm hoping it will be closer to what we need in this season.

Curious how it's gone!

How did you buy them? The website is tricky, doesn't let me buy without an institute login. Any suggestions?

As part of the aerospace engineering part of our science unit, we made these cool little satellite models today! You can find it here: littlebinsforlittlehands.com/how-to-build-a-satellite/#diy-satellite-project

Great haul ! 🤗 Such good stories !!

There's a teacher access code at the bottom left of the first sheet of your teachers edition that let's you access additional resourc3s

We have Math with Confidence so much! We skip the literature option though.

I wish math with Confidence would add color to their teaching guide. Ugh, hurts my brain. Lol

How can get

Great resources! Where did you get the Division book? Thanks for sharing❤

Do you have links for the engineering and election books you have printed?

We usually start back in July after using June as a review month. When do you guys usually start your new school year?

Where are the science notebooks from?

Do you skip some things in one or the other in order to finish them in the school year?

Thank you for this comparison video! It’s nice to see how they both teach different topics.

This was fun! My older girls use MM, and I do like it for them well. My little boys have used MWC, and I am not sure how we will move them forward in the future. Both such good curriculums!

How manageable do you think math with confidence is for 3 students for a first time mom homeschooler of a 3rd 1st and kindergartner? My kindergartner is supposed to go to first but they wanted to hold him back due to him not picking up on math as well as others. Kinda worried about it being a little too easy and if I could introduce level 1. Idk 🤦🏼‍♀️

We love Math with Confidence! My son just finished level 2 & we will be jumping into level 3!!! Super solid curriculum. Gathering suggested manipulates the night before really helps with the lesson flow!! ☺️

What kind of online store do you have?

Very nice flip through. 😊❤ I recently got the Preschool Math at Home book for my preschooler. I’m really excited about it!

Thanks for sharing your story it really helps. God bless you and your family.

Kindred spirit! I too am most excited about teaching the arts to my kids. I am determined to give them the rich fine arts education that I wish I had received prior to college. ❤

Thank you so much!!! These are actually the two I’m debating between for next year (although a different grade), so it was awesome to see a comparison of the two curricula. I think we are going to go with Math Mammoth, as well, as my son just wants to do the work and be done, and gets annoyed if we have to play games before he can do the work lol. Thank you!

I definitely think that it’s important to note that Abeka’s workbooks are not meant to be used alone with out any instruction. Even at the 1-3 grade level. It’s is imperative to have the lesson plans that are very well laid out. If not using the lesson plan books then the video lessons are excellent. Too many time when I hear that Abeka just doesn’t teach the concepts clearly and it’s just memorization, I question if they are actually using the lesson plans or even watches the video lessons.

We love MWC but only used math mannoth’s blue series!!! Nothing wrong with abating the curriculum!!! I feel the MWC games are awesome for mental math especially when played often!!!

Hey sweet mama! Loved learning more about these twp curriculums. Excellent reviews and comparison..Thank you for sharing! 🙏☺️💕💗

Hello everyone! I hope you found this to be helpful, especially since this is the time of year when a lot of homeschool parents start researching curriculum and solidifying choices for the upcoming school year.

Hello. Thanks for sharing!Where did you get the level 3 download?

Great review. As I'm looking through examples in the Daily Grams on the Easy Grammar website, I was wondering if the material in the Daily Gram is covered in the Easy Grammar text. It seems like the student needs to know a lot about verbs, nouns, pronouns, capitalization, contractions.... etc. in the Daily Gram examples. I understand all of these parts of speech, but if it's not been covered in the Easy Grammar book prior to the Daily Gram lesson page, how would a student know all that is asked of them in a Daily Gram? Does that question make sense?

It’s so nice to hear from you again! Do you plan to eventually transition your younger boys from MWC to Math Mammoth? If so, what grade would you make that transition? I have loved MM for my math minded 8 year old, however it is not going so well for my 6 year old first grader and I’m thinking about changing her over to MWC which would add manipulatives and games. I don’t want her to hate math, especially as a first grader! But I do love MM and now that I’ve done 3 levels I can see the progression and it is so SOLID! And it has been around to kind of stand the test of time versus MWC.

I missed you!

We love math mammoth for older grades at least. My son prefers cut and dried

let me know how you use Real World Math. I just discovered it and want to use it too at random times. My son has asked when he gets a cell phone (when he is mature enough to be responsible) and I would love to show him how much it would cost and how it impacts income etc. Maybe have him plan a meal that he would eat when he leaves home for college or job and have him estimate food cost vs reality when he goes to the store and calculates? I do not even know if this is in the book I just saw the cover and hoped it has something like that.

Did you link the history podcast? I couldn’t find it and was interested in checking it out. 😊

We found math mannoth dry!!! He definitely needs a strong math foundation m!!! I make sure my daughter who is going into the medical field is strong in math!!! She fights me but then I tell her a heart surgeon needs strong math!!! We broke up language arts for my teens and I love it as they aren’t doing grammar unless I see they need it!!! I don’t question it with their writing assignments but I see that they have it down!!! We love MWC!!! I feel it gives a good foundation!!! I love to mix math curriculums when needed!!! We love memory work!!! My teenagers do it as well but I’ll make up memory statements of things I want them to learn!!! I bought a lot of crafts for us to do as a family and we’ve been loving it!!! My teenagers are doing the lord of the rings literature study by were’d you learn that!!! I agree with you on her literature studies!!! I love it when my kids can speak with native speakers!!! It sounds like your schedule is working for you!!!

Are the Smithsonian books secular? I am interested but want to stsy away from books that teach the world is billions of years old

Such a great reminder!

This is really helpful! Thanks!

Hopefully I can get a long form detailed update uploaded for you guys within this next week!

Good song choice, I can hear the bass come in

This was great. Thanks!

Is grade 2 of easy grammar structured differently? I got the easy grammar grade 2 teacher edition but it looks just like the daily grams you are showing here!
