By Ann Hibbard (Monticello, AR) Visitor Review: We started using Horizons with our oldest in 2007 when she was in first grade. Although she has a solid grasp of math concepts, actually completing mathematical work is a challenge for her. The colors and occasional fun assignments have helped us both work through that challenge and…
By Cathy D (USA) Visitor Review: Horizons (published by Alpha Omega) takes the tears out of math for us. The lessons are broken down into manageable “chunks”. The workbooks have lots of kid appeal…and if you buy the whole kit (I recommend it for grades past K or 1st-depending on your mathematical self confidence)there is…
By Cassie (Campbell, NY) Visitor Review: I have used the Horizons Math program for grades kindergarten, second, and third grades and think it is one of the best and most challenging homeschooling math programs available. The colorful and fun workbooks introduce new concepts, but keep a constant review of lessons learned. I would not suggest…

By Mary (Sharpsburg, GA) Visitor Review: We have been using Sonlight Homeschool Curriculum for one year. My daughter (eight years old) will be in the fourth grade.

By Amanda (Palm Coast, FL) Visitor Review: We are currently using Grade 2. My daughter should actually be in 1st grade according to her age, but mathematics has always been one of her strong suits, so we decided to go one grade level higher. For us, it has been just okay. It is neither too…
By Cassie (Capbel, NY) Visitor Review: This is my first year homeschooling and I have a daughter in first grade. We are using Alpha Omega Publications Math 1. We are really liking this curriculum so far. It is a spiral approach to mathematics which benefits my daughter with the constant review. I use the teacher’s…
By Amanda (Michigan) Visitor Review: I bought my daughter the Kindergarten Horizons Math curriculum, and I love it. They use various drills to teach different concepts. By mid year my daughter new what was expected from that drill and she was able to start working on her own.I have two other little ones at home…

It is easy for him to catch on to something new with this repetitiveness every so often. I highly recommend this product to others to use. Cheryl…
