Horizons Math 4th Grade Teacher's Guide
A**N
This manual includes everything!
We love Horizons math in our house! These "newer" teachers manuals are great. I love that they have finally put everything into one book instead of into two separate one like they use to. The book comes with a scope and sequence in the front , and content tables that tell you which pages corelate with each area of math. It has a lesson plans helping to lay out teaching techniques for each day as well as the answer key for each lesson. There are also additional worksheets for copy and answer keys for those as well. The only gripe that I even have about this book is that it is rather thick, so the hard spine makes it a little tricky to copy the additional worksheets out of. But all in all this is a great math program and the teacher manuals are essential for this homeschooling mom.

Not very helpful
This does give detailed lesson plans , answer sheets and provides extra worksheets if a student is struggling with a concept, but as an educator I can do those myself and set my own objectives that can be restructured if not working for my class. I was hoping for specific ideas/guidance for different ways to approach teaching students any new skill, especially when the classic way is not "clicking" for some kids. I'm very disappointed.

Lots of ideas, Low on explanations
We have used Horizons math for much of the lower grades. The teacher's guide gives great ideas to help teach what's expected in the lessons. It has worksheets in the back for problem areas and the current lesson tells you which worksheet to use. It doesn't not explain exactly how to teach a concept, however. With the lower grades this has not really been an issue for me. I have gotten occasional help off the internet. As the math gets more complicated, I will likely need to switch to something with a better teacher's handbook.

The book is nice but could have more examples
I wish the teachers manual would explain the math problems more.

Teacher Guide
I use my teacher's guide as an answer book. It is not so useful if you are looking for a "how to teach math" tool.
