Re: Re: Scared to Bite the Bullet!-- LONG

Thank You all we are so happy! We did bite the bullet and my only small complaint is that we did not get a box for the games book and cards . I would have loved to pay an extra 3-10 dollars and had the box for the games.

My son and I are having fun with math for the first time ever. We are doing math 6-7 days a week. I let him help decide where to begin by looking at the list of topics mastered in the year in the books. We chose to start with C even though really he could have easily started with D. We are moving very rapidly and having fun. We are learning alot of great math vocabulary, strategies, and geometry that we were not previously exposed to which is really helping bring his rote knowledge together with prbolem solving and mathematical thinking (logic).

Thank YOU!

Hello Holly,

I am glad to hear that you have being enjoying your choice to bite the bullet.

As far as the math games box, don't worry as you will find that you will want to put all the of the math stuff together in one spot, and having the box will only be more stuff to store.

The box is good if the games are the only RightStart products you have, but if you have a whole level and the manipulatives, I personally think you are better off with out the box.

Instead, if you go to our website you will find other good ideas for storage. The only one they don't have up there is the idea of the hanging shoe rack for storage, but I have seen that work too.

In the FAQ section of our website, under "How do I store my RightStart manipulatives? "

It reads,

"There are a number of different ways to store manipulatives depending upon your household needs. Here are two pictures sent in by users. A few sites where storage ideas can be purchased are: plastic storage container, or the fishing box."

They will work even better than the box, because it will fit the majority of your cards and manipulatives.

Please let me know if you have any more questions. You can email me directly at Carissa@alabacus.com .

Thank you for giving your child a RightStart in Math,
