Underwhelmed September 13, 2009 Mark Seidenfeld 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this book to keep my son, who just finished fourth grade, interested in math and to allow him to maintain progress starting from what he had learned over the previous year. The book promised fun problems that would not take long to complete.
The problems in the book were essentially the same type of exercises as my son had been assigned in school over the prior two years, by which he had been bored. They were neither particularly interesting nor conceptually challenging. My son read a few and had no interest in doing them. I looked through the book to find two somewhat conceptually interesting exercises (which I still did not find all that interesting) and told my son he should do those. He did them within 30 seconds. That the was the last time he looked at the book.
In short the book did not help maintain my son's interest in math over the summer.
Fun book for young and old alike December 22, 2008 A. Singh 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this book for my 8 year old, who loves math problems. This book is great for taking along on short trips. The math problems range from simple to tricky and keep him occupied in a fun way. They really just take a few minutes to solve, so the kids don't get tired of it easily; yet make you think about numbers seriously. I have enjoyed doing some of the problems as well, so it is really fun for both kids and adults.
Good tool for challenging January 1, 2008 Ralston Dilbert 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
My kids love this book. I find it challenging for them and that is why it's so good.
5 Minute Math Problem of the Day October 2, 2007 Renee Linnen (East Harlem) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
My 8th and 9th grade special education students loved these problems. Since I have to do a lot of reviewing with them, they enjoyed the challenge and different format of the problems. I would like more of the same for other topics.
