[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have supplemented with workbooks we bought on Amazon, usually ones that are oriented around teaching the PARCC test. But recently we started Mathnasium and Mathnasium is much better. I don't think that there's anything wrong with the books and they do work, but I think having someone talk to them about math and give them ideas about how to think about and solve problems is several steps up from doing workbooks.

NP here.  I'm a mathnasium fan myself, my daughter has had grown tremendously in her numbers skills after a year of attendance.  But as a parent with a math degree, I wonder if the best way to replicate their individualized instruction is just to get a second hand McGraw Hill type math textbook online that correspond's to your child's grade level (or next year, if you are doing summer enrichment), and go through it page by page.  You have the skill in terms of concepts - you just have to see if you have the same instruction ability as a center like mathnasium.[/quote]
