Help Your Kids with Math, New Edition

Really good book for those like myself who struggle with math. I am a visual learner and I need to see things as well enable for me to comprehend what the teacher is talking about. This book has the basics covered while showing you illustrations and clear step by step instructions of how to solve and understand different formulas and math terminology. I really like how this breaks everything down into something adults can understand to show their children.

This book is fantastic! I've been out of college for several years now, so pretty much all math that I had learned has since been forgotten. I'm planning on going back for a masters, and will need to take a number of college-level math classes (yikes!). I'm trying to re-teach myself as much as possible, and I have found this book to be one of the most helpful. It's a very "busy" book, and by that I mean that each and every page is filled with pictures, words, numbers, etc., but that is part of what makes this book so helpful to me. I do wish that this book offered additional problems and solutions on each topic, but I have found another option to get more practice in. Great resource to have if you have kids in school as well!

My nephew wasn't thrilled when I handed it to him, but having looked through the content myself, I think it's a great book :) It covers all the mathematical concepts and topics that he'll likely need for the next 10 years, all the way through high-school. Based on the generous use of color, and the formatting, it's obviously meant to explain and teach young children. It'll definitely require that an adult help teach the material, because as stated, it covers a lot of topics; but definitely a useful resource.

I work with individuals with disabilities. This book was purchased for one of my adult clients working with a private tutor to improve his remedial skills (Math, English, Social Studies, etc.) He is able to understand the material being discussed in his adult education classes with the help of his book and his private tutor. Tutor was the person who recommended this book for purchase. Client began not knowing basic math and has since moved up to Geometry. Very impressed. Will order for more clients in the future.

So far it helps remind me how to solve each type of math problem. There are a few forms that I remember being taught differently but that’s ok. The biggest issue is that “common core” or the teacher (or both), have taught my son a different way to solve each type of math. Like many parents, tryin to figure out “common core” math methods is frustrating and confusing. This book hasn’t helped me understand “common core” math but it helps me and my son get the correct answers. I just worry we’ll get a teacher that won’t like us solving the problems a different way than they are teaching, but I will politely tell them to......

Not every one learns the same. This is simple to use as a teaching aid. It uses simple instructions and visual aids. Great for parents who haven't been is school for awhile. Stress-free for both parent and child. A must keep in the home or with child of any age in their backpack as a referance. Easy and well done.

In the past, I have used this book as an aid for tutoring in math skills I needed a little brushing up on. Now that I am in a classroom setting where all subjects are taught, this has proved to be very effective for quickly answering questions my students may have.

I do homework help with students and asked at the local library if they had any books to recommend--this was suggested as being popular with parents so I ordered it. It is missing a few key topics and the index is not always complete but in general it's very helpful. Clear explanations and illustrations make it THE book that I keep on hand.
