Math Made Easy: Kindergarten

I can’t believe how many of the pages were already written on. Very disappointed. Should have been rated something other than good.

My son is learning so quickly with this workbook. I would definitely recommend it!

I ordered this book not knowing what it was going to be like. When it got here and I started flipping thru it all that came to my mind is amazing. My son loves this book particulary the star sticker system where the child receives a star for every page it has finished. The pages are set up in a simple manner so your child almost automatically understands what it has to do. The book teaches your child all the math basics from counting to same size, same number, greater , smaller etc. So sit down with your toddler and have fun learning math using this book :D

My 5 year old daughter loved this book. It kindled a real interest in learning. She found that being able to stick a gold star on the progress chart for each completed page gave her a great sense of achievment. I felt the workbook gave an excellent introduction to all mathematic principals in a varied and child friendly manner. The book progresses gradually, reinforcing the all the skills and math concepts that 5-6 year olds should be familiar with. We were so impressed that we bought the next book in the series.

This is a great book. It really does make math easy! It's worth the price. I got this for my children and it's a great math book. It is very easy for children to follow and learn. It came with gold star stickers my children love to get on their papers. This is a workbook for children.It has parental or teachers instructions page by page in the back of the book. The book starts with the number 1. It has pictures asking the child how many of the objects are their, at the bottom of the page it has "copy the pattern". Then they write the word One, match the number one with how many objects their are in a group, Then it proceeds on to the number 2 - 10. Then the book goes through various activities such as connect the dots using the numbers 1-10. The numbers 11 & 12 are on one workbook page, 13 & 14 and so on to 19 & 20. Then it goes to can you remember, More than activities, add one more, add 2 more, take 1 away etc teaching simple adding and subtraction. The book reviews shapes, thick and thin lines, tall, short, color, inside & outside, front and behind, beside, between, the same, different, sorting, find the missing numbers etc. One suggestion is to make copies for later lessons.

Kids are always looking for something fun to do, so if your child likes to color, they can learn all about numbers and shapes while being artistic. Each page is well organized with colorful borders and black-and-white "coloring book type" pictures. The focus is on preparation for a more formal study of math. This is a complete home-study program to encourage children to practice the essential math skills they are learning at school. The workbooks were compiled and tested by math experts and are designed to increase your child's success at school. In the front of the book you will find a Progress Chart and a page of stars. Once your child has completed each page, you stick a star in the box that corresponds with the lesson. The workbook is designed to help your child explore the world of numbers in a fun and enjoyable way. There are connect the dots games, Can you remember? challenges and counting games.
