SPED Homeschool Review Crew Feedback
What was the one thing that most impressed you about this curriculum? That the vocabulary is broken down and guided note taking is used and checking in for learning

What should parents of children with learning needs be aware of when looking into this curriculum? Having to write out problems on a separate sheet of paper could be hard for some students. This would especially matter to students who have dyscalculia or those students who find note taking a challenge.
