Category Description for Horizons Math:

Admittedly, no math program will work for everyone - but I find few flaws in this motivating and well-laid out program. Although it may be more advanced for grade level than the "average" program, I don't consider that a negative. Because of the developmental approach to learning in this program, even a non-math type can easily succeed, while the "math whiz" will be challenged by the advanced topics introduced early. Concepts are introduced incrementally, then practiced, developed, and continually reviewed as other concepts are introduced. Horizons lays a solid foundation for numerical literacy with an early emphasis on hands-on, concept learning via manipulatives and one-on-one lessons. The program relies on few separately purchased manipulatives by utilizing common household items and including charts and number lines found in the teacher's handbooks. A useful table in the handbook shows the integration of manipulatives in lessons so you can tell at a glance just what you'll need. Analytical reasoning and mental acumen are stressed throughout the series, and memorization and drill are not neglected. The teacher handbook is the heart of the program, containing daily lesson plans that are easy to implement. Reduced student pages are a tremendous aid in planning and supply answers to the worktext exercises. Besides plans, the handbook contains an overview, materials list, activities, and supplemental worksheets (approx. one for each 4 lessons). Designed for homeschoolers, the activities, language, and lessons require no alteration. There are 160 lessons per level, each requiring approximately 20-30 minutes per day. Tests are given after every 10 lessons to assess retention of cumulative skills. While a good part of each lesson is oral (especially at the K level), the enticing, colorful student worksheets lay foundations for lessons and review concepts previously taught. There are two workbooks per grade level. Please note that the actual lesson is to be taught by you - there are only brief instructions on each page of the workbooks, which are not intended to be self- instructional. Boxed set contains the teacher book and 2 student workbooks. Additional Student Worksheet Packets contain one photocopy of each reproducible master in the teacher book.

I'm trying this after using aBeka which has been a great fit up until fourth grade when it got overwhelming and intense. This came on recommendation, and I am hopeful it will be a gentle approach to fractions and higher level concepts.

The students have really progressed in math. It is well-laid out with neither too much work or too many concepts covered at one time.

We have tried some other math curriculums and are returning to Horizon because of its rigor.

This is our 3rd year with Horizon Math and we have throughly enjoyed it.
Suzanne S on Aug 20, 2020
We love the Horizons math program! The workbooks are colorful, and there are lots of practice problems if we need them. The spiral approach allows us to revisit concepts often and keeps them fresh in our brains.

This program works for our family. Clear lessons and engaging content. This is for my youngest child. I have had three others successfully use and thrive in this program
Amy G on Jul 1, 2019
I have used Horizons math with all of my children and I would recommend it to anyone. The pages are colorful and interesting and there is variety in the types of problems in each lesson. Each lesson has several problems to practice the new concept taught and then the rest of the problems review concepts taught previously.

love horizons for elementary
KAREN M. on Jul 29, 2018
I have used Horizons Math for many years as I have homeschooled 5 children. My children like the color on the pages and the variety of different exercises.
benjamin s on Jul 23, 2018
I love Horizons Math! My kids love the colorful pages and bite-sized lessons. It is a good math program as well, for kids that like to work independently. Good easy progression. I will be using the teachers book for the first time with grade 4, since I found a few concepts in grade 3, that I wasn't sure how to teach and found myself having to google it.
Jill F on Jan 29, 2018
We have been pleased with Horizons after a year-long search for the right math program.
Janet W on Nov 16, 2017
I have used horizons math in the past and was pleased with it.
Rebecca Y on Sep 23, 2017
I chose this because my daughter is very particular about math. Pages in color are weirdly important to her, as is a spiral method so she doesn't get bogged down on one topic. This curriculum does both those things-woohoo!
Angela G on Sep 2, 2017
I have used these books with my previous children. I love the spiral approach and they are a little more advanced then some curriculum but really build a solid foundation in math.
Rebecca C on Feb 21, 2017
This math program works great for my kids.
Tina L on Jan 4, 2017
Very clear format, user-friendly approach for my 4th grade boy
Anthony D on Aug 25, 2016
This math curriculum has served our family well for over 8 years now. The new concepts are introduced easily, old concepts are reviewed regularly, and the color graphics and real-life applications make it more appealing to students. The lessons make it easy to break up the weeks and my boys have been able to be self-directing (for the most part) by the 5th grade. Additionally, I find this curriculum to be comparable to more expensive Christian curriculum that I have seen.
Brianne S on Aug 4, 2016
My upcoming fourth grader thought his brother's new Horizons math looked nice with the colors."
Sarah B on May 12, 2016
wonderful math program - best website!
Michelle S on Jan 26, 2016
Concepts are reviewed continuously throughout the text.
Robin E on Jan 15, 2016
After having tried different math programs, we used Horizons Math 3 and loved it. Horizons is colorful and very visually appealing. There is a lot of variety to keep things interesting. I think it is a good blend of the extra thinking required of Singapore and the drills/extra practice you get with Saxon. I find it the happy medium.

Great early math program
We like horizon math for the younger grades. The bright colorful pages make it more fun to get through. My kids are able to work many of the parts independently and we go through the new parts together. The concepts circle back making for a thorough learning experience.

Math 4 is going really well for my daughter who struggles and is behind in math. I'm pleased with the spiral approach for her learning style and she appreciates the fun puzzle type problems along the way.

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
