Another shoutout for Dreambox here - my older two love it. We started off slowly with it as they came home for schooling. Now they are both flying with it. I do not interefere unless they ask for help; which means they really do get to work through stuff that they may already know conceptually, but I don't see it as totally bad. When they read the instructions properly or set aside the impatience to listen and watch the teaching points, they do really well at the pre tests.

The later grades (3 and up) cover time, money and geometry concepts.

Having said that, I suspect both older boys will finish with Dreambox this year still - but I will still use it for Dylan, who is right now obsessed with times attack. So he will probably start dreambox later this year.
