[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like That Eureka starts simple in each module and very methodically builds up. DD just finished the first module, and the word problems she had to do toward the end were pretty complex, requiring her to figure out multiple steps to figuring out the math. It is definitely more challenging than 2.0, which didn’t seem to have much methodology behind it. [/quote]

It does seem superior to the previous system, but as others pointed out, but requiring kids to apply methods that no grown up would use may be overkill. It may help some kids and that's fine. For example, my child uses the models for multiplying  fractions because it makes the teacher happy. They'd prefer to simply do the multiplication especially because these are a pain to show using Kami. They don't struggle with math at all and so far have perfect scores on their assessments; however,  I think some flexibility would be an improvement. It would certainly make math class more enjoyable.[/quote]
