> 3 dayMy son and I use Singapore Primary Math as homeschoolers and it is a great system. It gets right to it and doesnt waste time with too much busy work. They use multiple ways of teaching math concepts so it works for various learning styles. The pictures are simple, but effective. I find it relatively intuitive myself. The only issue we ever really seem to have is very occasionally we will encounter a bit of instruction in the book that doesnt quite seem to make sense to either of us. I suspect this is a translation issue and it is fairly infrequent. Singapore Math doesnt spend tons of time on each concept which may be an issue for some students who might need extra time to really get it. This is why they have extra books at each level for extra practice, so if you have a student who needs that extra work - dont despair. If you dont know where to start, their website has useful placement tests readily available. [...] I would most definitely recommend these books!

> 3 dayThis is a great book written by a truly intellectual genius of his own rank. Often, Theophile Obenga is regarded as a second fiddle to Cheikh Anta who was really an enormous multi-disciplinary master. But Obenga is also a great intellectual with an immense array of knowledge in linguistics, philosophy, history and pure science. The most important aspect of this book is the direct connection that the author establishes with the Egyptian philosophical concepts and the reader. One is able to analyze and judge from ones own appreciation the wealth of knowledge of that civilization as well as understanding the different social paradigm of that ancient society. Many Egyptologists treat that civilization from a purely materialistic aspect without truly engaging into the analysis of Kemetic social interractions. Obenga, while skimming the cultural, religious, and political structures of ancient Egypt manage as well to enter the most important element of that society and of any society: The people, the common people! The understanding of a people is more important than the superficial theoretical interpretation of intellectuals for it is the people, the citizenry, that define a Nation. Egypt therefore, through the eyes of Obenga become more of a Human society with its crisis and problems as well as the attempt by individuals and leadership to fix those problems. That to me was the most important appeal about this book. One fact that I learned about this book is that Egypt was clearly a conservative elitist society with the priesthood headed by the King at the helm and in control. From my personal understanding, the decline of Egypt was probably due to its own inability to foresee the winds of change and implement reforms that could have provided more Liberty to the mass. The Pharaoh and its bureaucracy was clearly benefiting from productivity of the laboring classes through direct taxation and price fixing. Had the Kings enabled the development of a private economy freed from State interference, the innovative sciences of the elite priesthood would have found practical uses in the daily life and armed with Nation with means for future challenges. I think that after 3500 years of toiling for the glory of the Amuns Son, the Fari, the people of Egypt just got tired of supporting their leaders and did not resist hard enough the invasions of foreign barbarians. Had these ingenius people been allowed to keep for themselves the fruits of their labors, I am certain that they would have fought much harder to push back the violent Eastern barbarians. This understanding, while quite imperfect can be applied to the current situation of the African people TODAY! The continent is clearly rich and blessed with a young dynamic population vying to improve its life. But, self centered African leadership does not understand that individual Freedom and private property as well as the reduction of a cumbersome bureaucracy are the central tenet for a prosperous and patriotic citizenry willing to die for its country when under attack. Individual freedom and the ability by a people to reap the fruit of their Labor is therefore central for the development of the continent of Africa. The central tenets of the MAAT are much more richer for the appreciation of individual Liberty and private ownership! Lets therefore understand the past in order to avoid the errors of the ancient and build a future established on a better and improved foundation.

> 3 dayI bought this because of the good reviews hooked it up in my RV because I was getting bad reception. It picked up zero channels no good. The only reason I’m giving it one star is because zero stars is not available.
