Discovery K12 vs Math-U-See

Discovery K12 has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

Math-U-See is a math curriculum with 13 levels, from introductory math through calculus, combining manipulatives, lesson videos, textbooks, and digital resources. Students work at their own pace and focus on mastering foundational concepts before moving to new topics. Its Build, Write, Say approach has learners model problems with manipulatives, write solutions, and explain why a concept works. An individual placement questionnaire uses yes-or-no questions and example problems to help identify a suitable level. The curriculum is used in homeschools, public and private schools, independent study programs, tutoring, and learning groups. With an Essential, Expanded, or Premium subscription, users can stream instructional videos and access an online manual and lesson solutions through a browser. The Digital Toolbox provides the first three lessons of each level and virtual manipulatives for concepts from number sense through Algebra 1. A free account offers samples across program levels, and a 14-day trial is listed. The Digital Manipulatives app is designed only for tablet use; the maker advises checking compatibility before purchase.
