The Primary Mathematics U.S. Edition series of elementary math textbooks and workbooks is meant to be part of a system of learning in which adult supervision and independent practice go hand in hand.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I have used Singapore Math/Primary Mathematics for my children for four years now, and am about to purchase materials for their fifth year. I am extremely pleased with Singapore. My three boys each have very different learning styles, and this curriculum works for all of them. Between the workbook, textbook (which is geared just towards the student, and does not contain the answer key), and home instructor's guide (which has teaching methods and the answer keys), math is presented in an attractive, sensible, effective way -- easy to teach for the instructor, and easy to learn for the student. This curriculum has, in my opinion, just the right amount of daily work, plus regular, comprehensive reviews. It is also quite cost-effective, especially if you have (or will have) multiple students in the same grade, since only the workbook is consumable.
Fantastic program

This workbook is a must have for parents who are homeschooling and all educators. This will change the way you think of math education. I strongly suggest picking up the teachers manuel in order to understand the program. Just the workbook by itself will not make you students mathematical geniuses; you need the whole program for that. Keep in mind Singapore has scored top in the world the last 2 times the test was given.
