If you are coming from a different math curriculum, we strongly suggest you give your student the Singapore Math placement test. The placement tests are free and can be administered by you at home.
- Go here.
- Select the test based on the level your student completed with their last curriculum.
- 1A = the first half of First Grade, 1B = the second half of First Grade, 2A = the first half of Second Grade, etc.
- Print (answers are included in the same PDF.)
- Give your student the assessment.
- If your student does well, they are ready for the next level of Singapore Math.
EXAMPLE 1: A student completed the entire Kindergarten Abeka Math curriculum. The student takes the Singapore KB placement test and misses just one problem. The student should be successfully ready for Singapore 1A.
EXAMPLE 2: A student completed some of Saxon's Math 2. The student takes the Singapore 2A placement test but misses several problems. The student then takes the 1B placement test and gets a perfect score. The student should be successfully ready for Singapore 2A.
Please note that the publisher strongly discourages starting Singapore Math any later than 3rd Grade.
