This review is from: Everyday Mathematics: Journal 2 Grade 3 (Paperback)
I think the University of Chicago's Everyday Mathematics program is excellent. I attended an introduction and demonstration of it for parents when it was adopted by our school system and was very impressed. Students are exposed to virtually all math subjects, such as multiplication, algebra, and geometry and every grade level, beginning I think in 1st grade, so that these subjects do not carry any mystique or become intimidating later. By the time the student is old enough to really practice these subjects heavily, they have already been exposed to them in the earlier grade levels quite consistently. The system also involves munipulatives of one kind or another to cater to all learning styles and make learning math more engaging for all students. There is a Student Reference Book, which is something of a textbook -- it has the substance. Then there is the Student Math Journal, which is the workbook for the student. It usually comes in 2 volumes. You have to look for the grade level, and then the volume. I think it would be challenging to attempt to use the Student Math Journal without the Student Reference Book to introduce each new subject. Also note that the worksheets provide for practice of each new topic but then there is always also included a section for practice of old subjects. I think in education jargon it's referred to as the "spiral method". Anyway, this may be what is confusing some people about the organization of the workbook. It is not disorganized at all if you understand the worksheets are providing providing practice of new concepts as well as reinforcement of previously covered topics. Then there is the HomeLink workbook, which provides yet more practice for the student at home, sometimes with the involvement of the parent. It also helps the parent be aware of what the child is learning, and suggests ways to provide practice or reinforcement of math concepts using everyday things. The picture on the cover will be the same on all 3 books for the same grade level. Remember to check for the most recent publishing dates. There are quite a few old editions floating around on amazon. Good luck!
