OK, dear ladies (and gents), you helped me so much last summer with choosing curriculum, please help again!

We are finishing Chalkdust PreAlgebra. It's been alright yet I did not like the lack of daily review. I'm trying to prepare for next year's Algebra and would like to know what program you would advise me to use. I really would prefer something with more daily review (and would like to avoid using a separate book/program for that). I have Saxon Algebra which I'm fine with using unless someone has a better suggestion. What I did like about ChalkDust is the video instruction.

Next, Latin/Greek. We're completing "English From the Roots Up" and need our next "step". I am not familiar with any other programs/books so I really need help with this one. What I'd like to find is something that is more of review, then move to more direct instruction again (that's the pattern of how I teach - one year of direct intensive mastery instruction, one year of review).

I so appreciate any help/input!

I suggest sticking w/ CD Alg 1. Just add more review in yourself. Ds does all the cumulative reviews built into the program.
