This year my seventh grade daughter is using BJU Press Fundamentals of Math.  This is our first full year of using BJU Press math curriculum, and our first middle school math course. I appreciate being able to review a curriculum that we really enjoy. 

BJU Press Math is written to the teacher.  There are few instructions in the student worktext although there are examples in the student text for all new information. 

CTC Math has a clear scope and sequence of the mathematics concepts taught in each grade level.  My oldest daughter who is using grade 6 appreciates the video instruction that is provided while my youngest daughter who is using grade 4 appreciates the fact that she doesn’t have to write as much along with having shorter lessons than traditional math texts.  I appreciate the fact that I will less likely get behind in grading since CTC keeps track of the girls’ progress for me.  I am able to use this information to pull out the mathematical concepts which need further development if they do not do well on a particular topic.  This will also help them from becoming frustrated from repeatedly doing multiple problems of skills that they are able to confidently solve or have mastered.
