I just realized my DD doesn't know anything about metric system. Neither do I really! We do math-u-see but we havent reached any metric stuff yet.

Will we get to it with MUS?
Any suggestions for something to pick up that works with the metric system?

Thanks!

Metrics are covered in Zeta.

And in Epsilon, I think...but only as conversions (dekameters to centimeters, etc). If you want more of a broad spectrum, maybe the Key to Metric (http://rainbowresource.com/prodlist.php?sid=1204558798-753553&subject=10&category=2231)?

I plan on using the "Focus On Math" series for enrichment to MUS next year. The item number on Rainbow Resource is # 038973. I also plan on getting a geometry and problem solving book from the same series.
