This is my first exposure to this program and thus far I find it far too complicated for students with low math aptitude. The program assumes a higher level of understanding for students in lower tiers of learning. Further the lesson are no coherent. For example 4th lesson under topic 12 has a lesson on comparing decimals and then goes to adding fractions with denominators of 10 and 100, then the next lesson is on counting money. There is no connection between comparing decimals and money. In lesson 13 here is a lesson on converting with customary units of measurements. The student are asked to subtract 2 1/4 from 10. They are taught to subtract 1 whole from 10 and make it 9 4/4 and then subtract. The easier way is to use a number line and label the number line and count backwards. I can envision students being thoroughly confused.
