Well, we've hit our first major snag. Our 3rd grader has been having trouble with the Horizons math. It has something to do with the approach because she excelled at Math last year at public school. I let her do some Teaching Textbook samples and she loved it. The only problem is that they don't have the 3rd grade version released yet. She "passed" the 4th grade placement test but I'm hesitant to buy it and have a similar issue with her. Right now I am having her study her multiplication facts and if the 3rd grade version isn't out when we are done, then we'll take our chances on the fourth grade. I wonder if Sonlight gets them as soon as they have them on the Teaching Textbooks website?
I found a couple of free multiplication games online: multiplication.com
Coolmath4Kids (looks like you can print flash cards here as well)
I'm sure there are more but those are just a couple I came across quickly using ye 'ol search engine.
