This will be our first time trying out one of their products. I am going to use The Good and The Beautiful with Lillian this year. So far this is just review for Ethan but I don’t mind the extra practice and it’s been great for Lillian. We are using the book Addition Facts that Stick by Kate Snow as part of our Morning Basket. But I get it now and the monster appeal is huge! The name probably would have turned me off. I probably never would have chosen a curriculum called Beast Academy if I did not have a 7 year old boy. He is doing great with the challenging problems on Beast Academy because his fundamental math skills are so strong – particularly place value work. I love the challenging aspect of Beast Academy and I think using Montessori materials prior to this helped him develop a super strong number sense. Although in a little over a week, he has really already improved with using the computer. So I ordered the workbook so he has an area to practice with paper and pencil too. But I think since we are very low-tech, Ethan was struggling a bit with solving his problems on the computer. At first we started with just the online version. I purchased both the online version and the workbooks. This will be our first year using Beast Academy Math.
