I have some great materials from Right Start Mathematics: I have the Level E lessons, Level E workbook, and Math Card Games book with all the required card sets, drawing board, and other manipulatives. I used this with a fourth grader. here's what I have: http://www.activitiesforlearning.com...PROD&ProdID=28 I will sell for $75 (less than half) everything is in great condition- we did our work on separate paper, so no marks on anything! I also have a book of Transition lessons (to get used to this program and the manipulatives) http://www.activitiesforlearning.com...PROD&ProdID=15 I'll sell this for only $5 with one of the other sets. additionally, I have the "Hands on Geometric Approach" (used with a 7th grader- great for pre-algebra or pre-geometry or to give a boost for algebra or geometry). http://www.activitiesforlearning.com...TS&Category=28 This is a complete set in one big 3-ring binder including lessons, worksheets and solutions. Again, I have all the required materials and manipulatives and geometry panels. The edges of the pages show some wear, but no marks on anything. The Lessons, Worsheets and Solutions are listed for $55, plus manipulatives. I will sell for $25 more about the program: http://www.alabacus.com/ PM me if you have any questions! ~mara
I'm just bumping this up....anyone interested? We really liked it- lots of hands on stuff and gets kids thinking of the relationships with numbers- not just memorizing. I feel like it helps them truly understand HOW the math works.
I thought I'd post answers to some questions I got: What are all of the manipulatives that come with this? (Level E) 1-inch square tiles, abacus, paper abacus tiles for hundreds and thousands, a fold-out meter stick with cent. and inches, a calculator, base 10 cm cubes, rubber bands, card decks include: fraction cards, mult product cards, clock cards, money cards, and another set specifically designed for games in the book- it's not labeled. Also what all comes with the geometry? Is it the kit? drawing board, t-square, two other squares (with different angles), a safe-T Pro Ruler (angle ruler with magnifying protractor), safe-T compass, protractor, paper geometry panels (to make 3 dimensional shapes/figures), and a calculator. I think that's everything! I thought it was the kit- I bought it at a conference, not from the web site.
Argh! I want that Geometry set. I'd love the Rightstart one as well...If it were Level A. Are you okay with shipping across the border?
