This book is based on the Kumon Method that introduces math concepts in an incremental, step-by-step approach, allowing children to grasp new skills little by little with less challenge or frustration.The practice helped my child develop an understanding of multiplication up to 5x10. It introduces the concept of multiplication by first reviewing numbers and addition, and then gradually shifting towards multiplication timetables.I would like it better if some real-life examples of multiplication are included, so children know why they learn multiplication and how the knowledge is used. Otherwise, I don't know whether they really get it or not. The instructions and worksheets only deal with pure numbers. To make up this, I let my child use Beestar weekly math online. It has interesting word problems that build the insight. My child understands multiplications better when using both programs together. Overall, this is a fair book for very young children to start multiplying.
As a tutor, I found that many of my older students (upper elementary and middle school, even junior high) struggle with completing simple mathematical multiplication and division problems because they never took the time to master and/or memorize the multiplication tables. My mother had me memorize the multiplication tables up to 12(times 12) by the time I was eight, and went further as I got older (I think we stopped at 20 times 12 at some point in upper elementary school). It was grueling but boy was I glad we did it because it helped me so much with math!There is a place for memorization in math and multiplication is one area for it. I have a first grader and I decided to help her understand the concept of multiplication in incremental steps while getting her to do basic memorization. I like the Kumon approach as it teaches concepts in incremental steps. The book of Simple Multiplication only goes up to 5 times 10, but is sufficient for children who are beginning to learn and understand the concept of multiplication. The exercises are structured in an incremental manner beginning with familiarity with numbers, practicing addition, practicing repeated addition, before getting the student to repeat a multiplication table out loud.A fun way to do the 'memorization' is by getting the child to do something physical and fun, like climbing up and down a step as he/she says it, dribbling a ball, etc. This breaks the monotony and tedium a bit. I am also using another fun learning tool to reinforce the concept of multiplication:Twist and Shout MultiplicationUsed together, these educational tools can help a child grasp the concept of multiplication and gain confidence in math!
This book is excellent homework companion. It is not very good at explaining the multiplication concept, but it has enough exercises that kids will memorize the facts also connect the dots pages add some fun.
I purchased this book and the "My Book of Multiplication" from Kumon for my 6 year old who is currently in first grade. We work out of the "Big Second Grade Workbook" and they did a wonderful job introducing multiplication. My son really enjoyed it. This book starts off kind of odd because it has simple addition problems, but I assume its laid out like this for a reason. I enjoy the Kumon Math books because my son seems to understand Math more and grasps the concept with amount of repetition and practice. (He has currently finished the Grade 2 Kumon Math and now we are working in the Kumon Math Grade 3). I look forward to beginning this book with my son next week and hopefully by June we will be able to move on to the 2nd book in this series "My Book of Multiplication."
We use this for our 6 year old and 10 year olds and not only does this really help them learn but they also enjoy doing it. Before these books my kids struggled and now are keeping up with their classmates
This is a great learning and practicing book. It has just the right amount of difficulty for the grade level chosen. What is great about it also is that it is easy to find parallel subjects to whatever your child is learning in school..Comes with answer key that allows you to go back and review wrong answers.
My daughter was having a hard time keeping up with all the other kids in her class and her grades shown it.We wanted to put her through Kumon learning center, but it was not affordable at the time and my wife found these books on . Since my daughter been working in these work books she has improved a lot and her grades have improved in school. If you have time to work with your child and looking at an affordable way to help I would recommend these work books they help.
My child is 7 years old and has just finished using this book. Very good material, it focuses on multiplication up to 5x10. It's not like other workbooks that focuses on a lot of topics and fail to have the child master one topic alone. My child can now recite his multiplication table up to 5 and answer the book with ease.
