1 out of 5 stars Too easy for New York City middle school students   July 25, 2008
I returned this book right away when I received it because the level is too easy, only suitable for kids up to 6th grade. At least, I'd say it does not match New York City's curriculum. My 8th grader son refused to do it and here is his comment: "Perhaps Prof. Fisher has greatly underestimated the American mind, at least, in my view. He claims this book to be suitable for students entering and in middle & high school. If, however, one proceeds to examine the material in this book, he would be greatly disappointed. From question observed from the 1st page (6+4+2=?) to the end (6-9=?), the average American would deem the book "an insult to an intelligent mind." while claiming to be for Middle & high school graders. My 9 year old sister breezed through the book. Even the commentary on the back of the book claims it would help a "fourth - or fifth - grader who is struggling in math". And so, from an unbiased point of view, recommend other books for middle and high school students."

I'm not saying this is not a good book, but if you plan to buy it for your middle to high school kid, this is not the right book. If you want to buy it as a review book for your 6 grader, it's is more suitable.





5 out of 5 stars Great Summer Practice   July 3, 2008
I am happy with this math workbook. My son likes that he only has to dedicate a small amount of time to math daily over the summer break and usually there is no argument. I recommend this book to all who want their children get ready for September!


5 out of 5 stars Very helpful   May 26, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is a very helpful book for keeping your child or student up to date with daily review work. Each day builds on the previous days work. It is just enough work to keep concepts fresh. Could also be used over the summer to keep kids on track. Great product.


5 out of 5 stars Math   April 5, 2008
Math book very good. Has the answers in the back so you can see if you have the right answer. It also shows examples so you can see how to workout a problem. Once you review problems it doesn't stop the first part is always a review of what you did last. So it keeps you practiceing over and over again.


5 out of 5 stars Handy workbook to build those key math skills   February 16, 2008
It's nothing mindblowing, but for math you often need structure and practice more than anything else. A good, systematic way to build your child's math skills over the summer, or even during the school year.
