School Zone - Math Basics 4 Workbook - 64 Pages, Ages 9 to 10, 4th Grade, Multiplication, Division Symmetry, Decimals, Equivalent Fractions, and More (School Zone I Know It!® Workbook Series)

I purchased this for my 7 year old grandkids to help keep their math skills fresh while on summer break from school. It’s a helpful book of math problems, each page has simple yet clear instructions at the top of each page. As they progress through the book, the problems become slightly more challenging; which is what my grandkids like most ( along with the puzzles). I found the book to be definitely age appropriate; but challenging enough to make them want to complete more pages. Both children are not fans of math!! They are asking me for another book! The book provided great additional summer math practice while school is out; they will be ready for 4th grade math this year. This book provides problem solving for-addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals and more!! They can check their work at the end, there is also an “answer key” provided. Great value for the money!!

My child is obsessed with math it’s his most favourite thing in the world and he loves this book!

Good book to practice at home

I purchased this as a book of review worksheets for my daughter, who had 4th grade math last year. She inherited my minimal tolerance and appreciation for math, and I noticed heading into the start of this school year that she could use some extra support at home reviewing and practicing concepts, so this is one of two books I purchased for that before we move on to review supports for the stuff she's going over this year. This book has 59 actual worksheets, the remaining pages are answer keys. There is a brief overview of the concept being covered on the worksheets, and their are some color illustrations on many of the pages, mostly ocean related scenes, with a bat, penguin, and toucan thrown in for some bit of variety I guess. She said she liked the illustrations, that they were fun without being too distracting. My angel is about 40% through all of the work pages in it. She says that she finds the review explanation to be good enough for the most part. I did have to help her understand one of the exercises for regrouping on page 21, I do think the first section of that page could have had clearer instructions as to what they wanted the kiddos to do, but overall I also think that the explanations are good. I also think the challenge level isn't too high...which is good if you have a kiddo who's more intimidated by math then the dentist. It covers the necessary basics for the grade level, I don't mean to give the impression it does not. I would just say it's not going to challenge a kiddo who loves, lives, and breathes math to reach for the next level of thinking about the materials covered. What I personally think this book is best for is review or additional practice, it is not comprehensive enough for overall 4th grade math instruction, but I also don't think it was intended to be. So for us, it's doing what I needed it to and she dislikes it less then many other math supports I've purchased over the years...

Excellent material for learning, good quality book, kids love it and are learning a lot!
