Kinder/First Grade Homeschool Curriculum Review || Year In Review 2022-2023

Can you elaborate a little bit on your thoughts and experience with Math With Confidence vs Primary 2022? We used MWC for K and 1st, but my daughter has grown tired of the repetition. Im considering Singapore for next year.

Hi @amies8203! This video might help, I did a side by side comparison of the two. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j2GxYoCceMuGmdU and if you have any other questions I would be happy to help!

I realized that you had already seen the video I sent you! I don't know if I have a lot of new thoughts, but I will try to elaborate a little more. For Primary 2022: The questions can be odd and vague sometimes, so that bothered me. And I still wish the guide was more simple and clear. I feel like the Teacher's Guide is easier to follow than the Home Instructors Guide, but the Home Instructor's guide does have additional support boxes for the parents which can be nice. I like that the set up is easier that MWC, or at least I am gathering less materials before each lesson. You do have to go online and print things out, which is annoying if you forget. There are also hands on projects that you can do if you choose. I would do Primary 2022 again, with the Teacher's guide. My personal favorite has been The Good and The Beautiful, but I haven't tried them since they updated it and we couldn't use them with our charter school.

@karifacer This is so helpful, thank you! We tried 2022 briefly last year, but I really struggled with the Home Instructor Guide and also found some of the questions awkward. I keep pulling it off the shelf wondering if we should give it a try, or if the Primary Edition or Dimensions would be a better fit. So many choices! Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate it!
