My son is in a 5th grade. He is very good at math. Since I am working full time, I ask him to do several pages per day in addition to his home work/project etc. Kumon emphasizes repetitive work. So it is rather simple, but it helps kids to acquire needed skill to be good in math. I highly recommend this book.
After the Kumon workbook of grade 5 Word Problems, we got this fraction workbook for our son. Choosing Kumon Method has always been our top priority. This book includes practice of reducing and calculating fractions. Truly, there are over sixty pages of practice! Concepts are introduced gradually and built upon one another so that my son can advance through fraction without frustration or anxiety. My son also does math practice in Beestar (a wonderful website beestar.org) as a supplement of practice from school and Kumon workbooks. It is probably the best among the many learning sites. The worksheets are well-designed and have both time and accuracy targets set for your child to practice. Thanks to all the wonderful practice, he has shown great progress in math.
I love the kumon books great work and I recommend it to kids who need practice my son loves the little pictures but its mostly little examples and worksheets I bought almost all they offer in math and love all of them
This is a good supplement for extra practice for calculating fractions. Only downside (reduction of 1 star) is that it would be nice to have more than a handful of the same type of problems to work through, before the book moves on to another concept. Otherwise, all good.
Straightforward instructions and decent number of practice. My daughter used this after finishing fraction section in a general Grade 4 math workbook to further her understanding and manipulation of fractions.
Kind of easy for a 10 year old. I think this should be targeted more to 9 or under kids. 10 year olds will not learn anything from this besides repeating some work they have done. The flow is decent though, they start from simple and then go a bit more complex on all different variations of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions.
I always like Kumon series. Even though the recommended age may not be accurate as each child is different. Overall this book delivers what it intends.
This book really helped my son to understand and master his maths skills in fractions. Exercises were well planned. Highly recommended.
