what to do for math through next Sept?  

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
We are currently using Progress through Mathematics which uses the spiral approach. We are switching to MUS next Sept. So now, knowing this, my heart is not wanting to continue with our curriculum. I kinda feel like it's a waste of time, since the method will be different, so I would rather do something else. I could start MUS now, I guess, or can look to other activities. I'm looking for things along the lines of fun relaxed math drills, maybe on computer games, math stories, and things like that? If you had time to "kill" in a sense while waiting for next school year but still want to do some type of math, what would you do?

What ages?

We've enjoyed the Sir Cumference series, and for more advanced math ideas, Go Figure! When we take a break from math it's usually more focused on concepts, stories and/or life math (recipes, money) than practice through drill or games.

You might take a browse through my page on math - Go Figure! - you'll come across a number of fun ideas. I'd keep it to a few fun picture books and a few games rather than drills or even computer games. Lillian
