3^rd Grade Math Homeschool Curriculum Comparison

Kolbe, OLR, CHC:

MCP Mathematics Level C can be purchased with a MCP Math Grade 3 Teachers Edition
in several locations. Some homeschools even offer lessons plans at an additional cost.

Kolbe, Seton, OLV, MDG:

Saxon Math 3 Home Study Kit: Teachers Manual, Student Workbook, Fact Cards An alternative curriculum for Seton, MDG and Kolbe students. This math program can be purchased from several different locations. The best prices for the whole home study kit can usually be found at Seton Publishing or Sacred Heart Books. However, right now I have seen home study kits as low as $40.00 on Amazon…THAT IS A GREAT BUY! You can really find Saxon Math kits for less than $68.00 and that doesn’t include shipping. It is also possible to purchase the curriculum separately. The kit comes with a teacher’s Manual (invaluable,) 2 workbooks, flash cards and a meeting book. Manipulative are sold pretty much anywhere separately. They can be used for several years.

STA,

Math-U-See / Gamma Teacher Kit (Complete Kit)
– video instructions available.

MDG,

ABeka Teacher Manual is available in most locations.

Seton,

Math 3 for Young Catholics teachers manual may only be available if you are part of their program as well as the lesson plans.

OLV

Practical Arithmetic Working with numbers level C only found the answer key not a teachers manual.
