Mastery vs Spiral - Math the CM way

No, I don't know the answer to the question of which math programs are Mastery or Spiral programs...yet. I really really want to be able to enter the discussion about this (math programs in general and also mastery vs spiral learning). Unfortunately, I just don't know enough yet! I have been following Silvia's thoughts on MEP working with CM schooling. Is it mastery or spiral learning? CM talks about mastery in teaching. We just started Life of Fred books here but I have no basis on which to say they are Mastery...or Spiral.

Read more about Charlotte Mason here. Or here. Or Google it and you will find plenty of reading material. To learn more about MEP go here. Or here is an introduction video.

I am still learning :) It's a good thing I love to learn.

The point of the post is to direct others to the those who are more knowledgeable about such things. Specifically about using MEP for math. That was the start of the discussion, I believe, which you can find a post about here. But I really think, by reading through this, that a lot can be learned in general about these methods. The second part to Silvia's post is here. You can also go to Jeanne's post here, which I read after reading Silvia's first post but see is linked in the second :)

Enjoy reading...I will be.
