Love Horizon Math
I’ve used Horizon Math for 8 years now. We will be using it with all 8 of our kids! This curriculum gets the kids to an advanced level without me having to do anything other then help them a little here and there. My 10 year old helps the K and 1st graders each day with it. Love the colors and layout plus it’s super fun! Love it that it is so easy to use because it’s just in nice workbooks. Can’t get any easier than this!

Tried and True
I used this with my now high schooler and middle schooler who are in upper level math classes, and we are happy to go through it with our first grader again expecting the same results. It is straight forward, challenging, and the spiral method of the curriculum keeps the student from losing gains.

We love this math program!
We have been using Horizons math for 1 month now and we love it. My daughter was using Math U See alpha and she grasped concepts quickly but Mastering each concept was harder and required a repetitiveness that bored her. Horizons moved quickly, constantly introducing new while consistently reviewing past concepts. She loves it and is learning better with this method.

Excellent program
I haven't found any other program to be as good, and believe me I've looked at several, and have worked through a couple of the other top programs out there. Nothing is as good as Horizons to me and my kids. I have a girl and a boy who process differently, but they both do well.

I love this program. My first grader finds this easy to follow. The worksheets that go with the book are a big help too. We have already ordered book 2.

So far I love using Horizons Math for my son He likes that there are a variety of exercises each day and the colorful pages keep him interested I like the idea of being able to switch to other Alpha Omega systems and be on the same scope and sequence later if he needs a different method My only criticism so far would be that the K workbook has the student learn to write a four with the triangle shape and the 1st grade book jumps in with a square-shaped four

Why did you choose this?

required for classes at the local YMCA homeschool program

We have used this program for 19 years! I love the simple, colorful and spiral teaching method!

My son is enjoying the colorful pages of these books! And says he 'understands math better with this book!' with minimum frustration

Went through Horizon Math K level with my son, and loved the series

Why are there 2 workbooks for math 1?

To keep the size of the workbook reasonable it seems they split the workbook sheets for the year in half & provide the first half of the year’s worksheets in Bk 1 & the 2nd half in Bk 2. This also allows me to space out my expenditures for the school year a bit too.

I am trying to decide whether I should start with workbook 1 or 2 for my daughter, who has completed Primary (Singapore) Math 1A. I'm just not sure if I'll be skipping anything important if we start with Horizons Math 1 Workbook 2? Thank you for any insight!

We have a placement test for Horizons on our website that should help. You can find it at the link below (scroll down a bit). In general, the two courses should be fairly well matched although Singapore has a greater emphasis on problem solving skills. Your daughter will probably be OK starting with Workbook 2.
