Publisher's Description of Horizons Math 3 Workbook One
Fast-paced, brightly illustrated lessons in a softbound, consumable workbook keep your child focused through the process of introduction, review, and reinforcement. Concepts featured in this elementary math curriculum include writing a division fact three ways, illustrating the order and distributive principles, multiplying with money values, interpreting distances on maps, writing equivalent values for Roman numerals, and more!
Covers more challenging addition and subtraction, multiplication by up to 4 digits, division through 2-digit divisors with remainders, simple geometry, map reading, Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature, metric system, and introduces algebraic concepts and equations. A Worksheet Packet is also available which contains print copies of the reproducible master worksheets in the Teacher’s Guide.
I could not be happier with the Horizons math program Each day offers some review problems as well as introducing a new concept or building upon a concept already learned This helps to keep my 8 year old interested in math I have found it very easy to teach with minimal preparation The teacher's manual can at times be a little vague in how to teach new concepts but otherwise is a helpful resource I recommend using the placement assessments to decide which level to use as it does seem to be ahead of some curriculum for the same grade Horizons has been a great fit for my family My daughter who was bored to tears with the repetition of our previous program once again enjoys math!

I have found Horizons math to be thorough and enjoyable Lessons are colorful and include several different exercises for example a single lesson may cover time money addition multiplication and word problems This keeps each function fresh in the student's mind The only problem I've found is that each set is about a year ahead of my child's level so in 4th grade she's using level 3 etc Also additional practice in multiplication has been necessary Overall it's the best program I've found thus far
