Math Made Easy: Second Grade

Book was listed as good. Recieved it with a chunk of the book missing. Plenty of missing pages. Also other books that came in that were listed as good had a large amount of writing in them.some in ink so they can't be erased

This is a great summer workbook to keep kids fresh on their math skills or to introduce concepts for the upcoming year so they are familiar with what to expect. I don't have a problem with the arrangement/order of the topics. For my son, taking a break from word problems (which can be a struggle) to do time/clock or geometry problems is great because it boosts his confidence and enthusiasm. There is lots of practice, and each topic spirals back with higher-level concepts while strengthening the foundation--for example, adding one-digit numbers, then two-digit numbers, and then three- and two-digit numbers. Again, this is a good supplemental resource for enhancing your child's math skills.

We have used the Math Made Easy: First Grade Workbook and are very satisfied with all that is presented. I will use the entire Math Made Easy workbooks for homeschooling.

My daughter is ahead of her class and needed to be challenged, by page 7 we found this book definitely a useful learning tool. It does NOT review 1st grade. I find it frustrating to purchase an age level book and have half of it be just stuff they have already covered. This IS NOT the case. Would definitely be a great book for home schooled children and look forward to purchasing the next levels.

I used this book to review second grade over the summer after finding my daughter had large gaps in her math education. My daughter loved placing the stars included in the workbookon each completed page. The math problem pages kept her interested because of how the problems were related to one another. For instance, on one line there were several ways of getting to the number 7 imbedded in two digit calculations. The book covers the major areas of math education.

The Math Made Easy series is a complete home-study program to help your child practice the essential math skills they need in each grade. This workbook will provide practice for all the major topics for Grade 2 with an emphasis on the addition and subtraction of larger numbers. You will also find a review of Grade 1 topics and a preview of the topics in the Grade 3 workbook. This is when they introduce Times Tables Practice. A progress chart can be found at the start of the book and includes stars you can stick in the correct box that corresponds with the completed lessons. The "Answer Section with Parents' Notes provides answers to all the activities in the book. These pages enable you to mark your children's work. There is a visual of each page and notes to help you explain the common errors and problems. Where appropriate, they indicate the type of practice needed to ensure that your children understand where and how they have made errors. Contents: Counting by 1s, 2s, 10s and 100s Odd and Even Reading and Writing larger numbers More and Less Fact Families Fractions Changing amounts into dollars and cents Adding and Subtracting Telling Time Tally charts and Bar graphs Sorting 2-dimensional shapes Equations Location on a grid and Placing on a grid Reading a Calendar Venn Diagrams Sorting 3-dimensional shapes Money and Measurement Problems Symmetry Solving Real-life problems Times Tables Includes a Certificate your child will love hanging on the refrigerator. :) ~The Rebecca Review
