My kids love it. It puts math in terms they can understand and follow. Does away with some of the math lingo no one ever remembers when they graduate. My kids whom i felt needed some more practice in the basics, started in book 1 and by the end of the year they were in book 4 (pre-algebra). This system doesn't overload them with pages and pages of problems.
Cons: Not sure if this would be a full stand-alone math curriculum.

My oldest son has struggled with math and while in public school he became 2 grades behind his recommended grade level (despite the hours after school each day that I'd spend with him reviewing his lesson and helping with his homework). We found this last year (during our 1st homeschool convention) and immediately began using it. We recently tested for academic compliance and he his test revealed he has improved and is working at the recommended grade level for math. It has really taken the fear out of his math studies and boosted his confidence. It can tend to move fast, and sometimes I feel he should have more practice and don't want to move him too fast. He doesn't feel that way, but as a mom...I just don't want him flying through it. So, occasionally we add worksheets covering the same math concept. He is really excelling and our 3rd grader enjoys it too, but math has been his favorite subject and continues to come easy for him.
