Two Excellent Books in One-Workbook I and Workbook II are included in this 192 page book. Be mindful that the answer key for the first book is right in the middle of the book! currently page 88. Then book II follows. The problems are in increasing difficulty with the skill displayed in bold at the top of the page, there are also hints at the bottom of the page on some of the newer or more difficult tasks. This is not a textbook, it is a workbook, totally worth the money. Don’t rush through it and success is sure to be achieved!

Great for afterschool helpMy daughter has really improved in math using these books. She always struggled with word problems. So a lil one on one after work/school with her and she has started to gain the confidence she needed to make her improvements. This isn’t a “miracle” that’s just give to your child and it good. you’ll have to invest time with your child and help them, but I promise they will improve and gain confidence.

Not for AmericansAlmost every single word problem is in metric units!! This book is almost completely useless. Even the speed problems avoid miles per hour like a bad penny. Why should you care? This defeats two important reasons for using word problems. First, they are supposed to be apply their worldly knowledge to help understand and therefore organize and solve the problem. Second, students are supposed to ask if their answers are reasonable.

Exactly what I had been looking for!Some reviews mentioned that these are impractical problems i.e. not application-based, Yes, that is true to an extent. However, that is not the reason you should buy this book. The idea is to help the student think out a solution instead of blindly applying a formula, plugging in the values and spitting out an answer. It is a great tool for cultivating thinking-based problem solving. It also teaches that there is more than one way to arrive at the solution. When I say “teach”, I don’t mean that the book shows you how to solve the problem. This book is not a textbook for teaching or learning. It is for applying your knowledge (gained in class, home school, tutor groups, etc.) and figuring out how to solve the problem. The answer key is provided, but not the method used to arrive at the solution. This is the reason why I bought it – you are forced to think out the answer; there may be more than one way to get the answer and the answer key only serves the purpose of giving the answer and not doing the thinking for you!If that is something you are looking for – you should definitely buy this book!

Gorgeous and worth it!!!I recommend every workbook and anything from Kumon. Their books are great, short and clear explanations that explain enough without wasting the child’s time, clear and accurate assessment of the student’s work through a point system in the books, plus there are answers and some solutions that help a lot. So far, I haven’t come across Kumon’s bad workbooks, although I’ve bought textbooks from almost every subject they offer. They are really grеat!!! Especially this book for grades 6-8 for text math problems, for Algebra and Geometry, which covers everything the children maybe missed and the children progress very quickly to a higher grade that they has not yet reached. I am very impressed ! I rarely have such opinions about any book! In the beginning it is difficult for the child with Kumon’s books and they spend more time even for one lesson, but later the child begins to understand more and more and becomes pleasant and begins to become more independent if they don’t stop perseverance in the practice of Kumon’s books.

Word problems can be thought of as little math puzzles we read. Students learn that solving a word problem involves reading it carefully then turning the words into numbers. The book demonstrates how to solve addition and subtraction word problems by using objects or drawings. This title also will allow students to explain how an author uses reasons and evidence to support particular points in a text and identify which reasons and evidence support specific point(s).
