Thinking about gettin' us some Singapore Math for the summer. What is the difference between the US edition and the Standards edition?

I tried to dope it out by comparing the exit tests they provide on the website, but though they were different I couldn't see a consistent pattern of how or why.

When I purchased them for DD last fall I remember looking into the differences. Basically the standards editions are in line with California standards and therefore there are some rearrangement of topics and additions such as data, and probability. I think there a few more additional topics as well.

I believe they have come out with a third addition that aligns with the new common core standards.

I think the US standards is cheaper than the other two. HTH!
