Description

We have had numerous requests for Horizons manipulative kits over the years, so here they are! When choosing which manipulatives to include in each kit, we decided to incorporate the items most used at each level that are not common household items (like construction paper and a measuring cup). The Horizons program heavily utilizes flashcards for drill, and while many of these flashcards are included, we also have provided blank index cards so you can create some of the more specialized flashcards yourself. All of the manipulatives are also available separately - please see our Saxon manipulative section, or Manipulative-Based Instruction for more thorough descriptions of individual items. We have opted not to include Judy Clocks or Teaching Clocks because although recommended in some lessons, they are used fairly infrequently. Demonstrations suggested for use with larger clocks can also be shown on smaller student clocks.

Category Description for Horizons 2

Covers more complex addition and subtraction, multiplication facts 1-10, place value, correspondence, fractions (½,¼), Fahrenheit temperature, ratio, decimals (with money), area, perimeter, and volume. A Worksheet Packet is also available which contains print copies of the reproducible master worksheets in the Teacher’s Guide.

Disappointed
The items pieced together here do not go with the Horizon Grade 2 math curriculum. I’m trying to make them work but the name of this is definitely misleading.

Very deceptive
How is the complete set complete? It is NOT complete. Very deceptive.

Frustrating!
I am so disappointed that this set is advertised to go with Horizon Math level 2. This is my first year to homeschool and I assumed that by purchasing the math manipulatives along with the curriculum, I would have everything I need. The flash cards included are not even the ones needed! Now school has started, I don’t have what I need for lesson 1 and I will have to either buy more or create something myself. It should be made clear in the description that this is not a complete Horizons level 2 manipulative set.

NOT ALL-INCLUSIVE
While placing one order and receiving all the manipulative needed for an entire year is convenient, this kit does NOT include all needed items. For example, Lesson 5 requires 'value place materials' (i.e. base ten set); however these aren't in the kit. Also, the flash cards included in the kit are not the ones called for in the lessons. (The flash cards described in the lessons have the answer under the problem on the card. These do not.)
Overall, disappointing, since we're only a week into school and I already need to create my own manipulatives or order additional items. Very concerned that other items will be needed later in the year.

Why did you choose this?

This manipulative kit is so complete! I love it!

To coincide with grade 2 math workbooks.

I recently purchased the Horizons Grade 2 math curriculum, but I didn't realize I would need manipulatives too. Wish I had ordered them at the same time!

Good value
