Re: 4th grader behind ~ start over with RS1 or RS2?

Oh my, I hadn't thought of that. Well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. That reminds me of a question I don't think you ever answered. Are the 1st & 2nd Edition the same amount of rigor, or is the 1st Ed. more rigorous than the 2nd Ed.?

Thanks, Rachel!

Re: 4th grader behind ~ start over with RS1 or RS2?

Hi, Michelle!

Both Editions have about the same 'rigor'. The Second Edition covers more math concepts per level, but is approached with much more review - so it doesn't 'feel' rigorous. The First Edition doesn't have quite as much review - so at times (depending on the student) can feel fast. There were a couple of times when I had to review a segment of lessons for a week (or more) so my kids could grasp or fully understand the concept. So, basically, I created my own 'Review Lessons'. However, both editions are thorough and will give your daughter a fabulous math education.

Let me know if you have any further questions!
