Free Grade 5 Decimals & Fractions (Kumon Math Workbooks) Ebooks Online
Most grade-school workbooks try to cover the full range of topics in one workbook, and as a result do not dedicate enough pages to important mathematical concepts. Kumon's research has found, however, that children find learning easier when they tackle one skill set at a time. With these findings in mind, we designed our newest line of workbooks to help children with one particular mathematical skill set per book.

Our family loves the Kumon workbooks. We have used them for 3 children over 5 different grade levels. So my mediocre 3-star review is not for the series as a whole, just this individual workbook.As mentioned repeatedly in Kumon reviews, these are Workbooks full of two-page reviews to provide extra practice. Kumon books are not for teaching nor for tutoring on any concepts. Kumon gives no explanation and very few examples. These are for review, practice, and seeing what your student knows. Be prepared to walk them through difficult concepts because the book does not do that for you. Know what you're purchasing.Regarding this specific text, the Decimal section of the book is just fine. My middling score is directly related to the lack of grade-appropriateness of this Fraction half of the book.To the point, this is NOT a respectable 5th grade fraction review. It would be better labeled as a Summer Bridge review between 4th and 5th grade or possibly for the first month or two of 5th. There is not a single review of multiplying or dividing fractions. Not a single problem that calls on the student to find a common denominator.If your student needs a lot of extra practice in adding and subtracting fractions that already have the same denominator, then this will do. If they need a lot of review of converting Fractions into Whole numbers or Improper Fractions into Mixed Numbers and back, then this will do. But, as I said, it is important to know what you're getting.If your school distract is like ours, you'll need to get Kumon's 6th-grade Fraction book. My son is halfway through his 5th grade year and he is an average math student who frequently struggles with new math concepts and the fraction portion of this workbook is way below his level. You should know what you're buying.
We love Kumon books, but this one is a little easier for my fifth grader. It's right that children find learning easier when they tackle one skill set at a time. But when my daughter did half way of this book, she thought it includes too much easy practice, and she just needed more advanced math drills. She really likes the printable worksheets on Beestar (a wonderful website). They are probably the best among the many learning sites. Their worksheets are well-designed and have both time and accuracy targets set for children to practice. They not only teach the conventional math, but also give you the context and the thoughts behind the principles. My daughter's math sense is improved significantly since we used Beestar.
this book will make your child appreciate allen iverson. it's dullish and lots of practice and degree of difficulty is not linear or progressive. however, my eldest has learned his decimals and fractions the old fashioned way and this is one of the stanchions supporting that way. he's only in second grade and it comes easily; it would seem this is too mechanically boring for a true fifth grader.i'd recommend it for ambitious younger kids so its challenging and you learn something. not for your average 5th grader
I don't care for the Kumon books even though they were recommended by my son's fourth grade teacher. They have tons of exercises. That's the good news. What the don't have is and instructional or explanatory material. So if your child is not already familiar with the concept then they can't work the problems. No help for parents to figure it out either. Will not buy again.
I love these for my kids, whom I homeschool, they review first and then gradually move into the new lesson. They are very helpful and I hope Kumon continues to come out with more and I hope they will go into high school books as well!
Great book, kept my daughter fascinated for several hours. Good review over the summer months. Will certainly get more books.
Kumon is what we needed! My kids are homeschooled and we use Saxon, but they needed some more 'tutoring' in math. We couldn't afford private tutors, so a friend of mine suggested Kumon workbooks by grade level. My kids do 2 pages per day. I am so glad we started doing this because we have been able to identify the concepts that they needed more work on. Also, being affilitated with a public charter school, we have to take the STAR tests and I feel like the Kumon books are helping them prepre for that test. Thanks Kumon!
Excellent books, fast delivery,used book in excellent conditions.Excellent workbook that give extra practices, self motivated my child, and build the confident that help you to go ahead in math knowledge.
