[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some things, like basic maths, don't change. I liked having a text book so I could look ahead to the next week's work or back to older explanations if I was confused. My son has a pile of different-sized worksheets in his room. [/quote] My kids get a math textbook. They go through it linearly. Each new concept chapter’s problem set has review problems, and each review problem lists the chapter that that particular concept came from so kids can easily go back and refresh their memory if they don’t remember how the problem is done. Problems from the current concept always start with a few questions drawn directly from the explanation texts so its super easy for the child to make the connection between the direction and the execution. It’s heaven. [/quote]
