This nice book for math to approve the childeen to study the math and get more ways to helpe and easy for them ,i prefer for my son

It does what it says on the tin. My daughter (8) says that she is struggling with maths and the few questions we ask her she gets wrong and she says she doesn't do well in tests. Our problem is that her maths homework is done on her tablet (mathletics) which doesn't allow for working out or for us to see the working out. We wanted to give her some fun'ish extra work that we could see her working out and go over with her, without her being too bored or complaining about doing it. This does exactly that. She like the timer and can manage a couple of pages in that time. The questions aren't hard at all, but seeing as she is struggling that is just fine. I've only given it four stars in that she hasn't improved at all, but that may well be just her apathy towards maths rather than a failing in the book.

I have bought the 5-7 for my son and the 7-8 for my daughter. My son finds maths easy and has whizzed through the book with some support and my daughter and I do about 20 minutes before bed each night - her choice. Before, she really lacked confidence and now she is excited about maths and is also much quicker to answer than previously. These are a FANTASTC resource to enhance learning at home. They are colourful and clear. Children don't want worksheets in the evening - they are fed a diet of that at school. The other negative review I would ignore - these books aren't designed for the classroom - they are designed for extra maths at home to reinforce what has been learned in school. I have logged on this evening as both children have finished their books and want new ones!

Excellent

Great workbook son really enjoys these

This balances well between teaching a concept and practicing it - they are a good number of questions per page at differing levels. It isn't dis-similar in approach in that respect from a number of other publications, but what I loved and the children loved was the chance to time themselves and know that it really was only ten minutes. It's amazing what a little gimmick can do in terms of a child's enthusiasm to run upstairs and do maths!! I have used this book in two ways, firstly starting at the front and working through, but then when my child has been doing a certain topic in maths, I have gone to that page and the focused practice has helped her comprehension of the subject at school. I like Carol Vorermans way of teaching the subject - I think the style of her books is user friendly and engaging, but this timer really helps and is a great concept.

Math task are good, but not timer as promised.

Nice book

Good but very few pages. Could have had more material
