Singapore Math review

Singapore Math suits a parent who wants a structured, mastery-based math program and is willing to teach it. Its flagship Dimensions Math curriculum pairs the Singapore method with updated resources and runs from PK to grade 8. Each grade comes as a set: the Grade PK set with Teacher's Guides is $123, and grades 1 to 5 sets with Home Instructor's Guides are $169, while the Teacher's Guide versions are $152. The Home Instructor's Guides are written for teaching one child at home, and the site's resource library lists pacing guides, Blackline Masters and Home Instructor's printouts. Singapore Math also sells the Primary Mathematics series, Singapore Math Sprints practice books at $14.50 and manipulatives. The catch is the parent's workload: there are no video lessons in the core sets, so you teach every lesson, and new buyers need to choose between several editions.
