In Reply to: Singapore Math: skip the workbook? posted by Cleo Qc
The workbook exercises often require a student to apply the concept at hand in a new way--one not previously covered in the text. This method of stretching a concept becomes more pronounced as the Singapore levels advance. I think it's an appropriate exercise for most dc, but only you can decide if it works for your son.
