Math - really?

As far as I know, Spectrum workbooks are generally well-regarded and considered to be at grade level.

We were out shopping this weekend and I was browsing workbooks at a bookstore. You may remember Becca's and my recent math troubles - we kicked and fought to get 3 units into Singapore 1B before throwing in the towel. Well, I picked up a Spectrum grade 1 math workbook and flipped through it. I turned to the final test, over the whole book, and realized that Becca could do all of it. She'd complain and it might take her all day to do it, but she could do all of it right now. I was shocked - I am shocked. All my garment tearing over math, and she's actually already learned at a very advanced level.

Hmmm... maybe I can chill a little.
