Posted By: MumOfThree Singapore Math - I need help - 08/07/13 02:28 AM
I am going to be partial homeschooling one of my kids as of, um, tomorrow... I plan to use Singapore math as a core math curriculum with side serves of Fred and various computer based activities. I have Singapore Math 2A/2B third edition here that a friend lent me but I am absolutely and utterly confused about what to order for ourselves.

We are in Australia and the Australian distributor seems to have no stock of anything and I am also very confused about which version I really want to use anyway. From what I can work out possibly only the Third Edition is in British English, metric and Singapore currency (which is quite close to the Australian denominations from what I understand), is that right?

I have been trying various searches but I don't seem to be able to find the website of the actual producer of Singapore Math with a definitive guide to all the versions and where to get them, only the US distributor and then various other countries' distributors. IS there a central resource?

Can anyone offer any insight here?

Thanks!

Problem solved, for any future australian parent who is not finding what they need with google:

The main distributor in Australia sells some books, but not many and then has a small text link that I initially missed to this website, which has the full range:

It appears that "The New Syllabus" is the best fit for Australian children.
