Need help with Math options other than Horizons and Saxon

[QuirkyKapers]

I have tried Horizons and my son is bored since it is so repetative. I like that Saxon does a variety of things and isn't repeating things too much. However, or some reason is just really time intensive for me to prepare. I also miss the independence that my son was able to have with Horizons.
How does Modern Curriculum compare? How about Abeka?

We did NOT have a good experience with MCP!!

Have you considered Math-U-See. You can read my review in this thread (http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=939&highlight=fraction+overlays).

Good luck!

MCP's working for us so far.. we're in K and I'm using the TM with it.

Here are some other math programs that are worth checking out:

CLE (Sunrise) Math
Rod & Staff Math
Professor B/Power Mathematics
Math on the Level
Miquon (only goes up to third grade)
McRuffy Math
Making Math Meaningful
Developmental Math
Rightstart
Ray's Arithmetic
