Helped our Second Grader!

Helped our Second Grader!
Six weeks ago, a worksheet like this would have left our second grader in tears. Now he can do it correctly on the first try. Distance learning in first grade really hindered my kiddo's math skills, and this book helped him understand the concepts and execute them accurately, independently and without frustration. The games are simple for adults, and really helped kiddo apply the concepts. Looking forward to using the matching subtraction book next.

My son knew most of what was taught in Math U See Alpha but was not ready for Beta. I was SO not going to drop the cash for an expensive textbook we’d only need part of. But I couldn’t get him to memorize his addition facts well, despite trying for months. This book did the trick! It was fun and user-friendly. Lots of activities and games, but no fluff. Highly recommend! Looking forward to moving on to the subtraction book.

Ive had this book for a while. We started working on it when I first got it...but once he entered kindergarten, I figured he would learn his math facts there. After seeing that this wasn't happening, we went back to the book. My son just turned 6 and although he could use his fingers to add effectively, now he is really learning his math facts. As a former math teacher, I appreciate how this book teaches students how to think about math, rather than just rote memory. There's a game for each section and my son is excited to do math and hang out after dinner. We're nearly done with the book and I already have the subtraction one. I look forward to starting that!

Our 7 yr. old son is blind in one eye and has been going thru multiple surgeries (long story). I have homeschooled all four of my children and he is the last..but the only one that could not grasp the principles and strategies I taught the other 3 kids. We used Ray's Arithmetic Series and transitioned into Lifepac Math curriculum for all 3 of them. He has been the only child that could not grasp anything higher than the addition facts for 2's. Being sight impaired in the right eye, we figured out that he couldn't visualize the way I had taught the other children. This curriculum by Kate Snow has helped us in so many ways. I bought the multiplication fact and the division facts for our 10 year old to use. He knows all of his multiplication facts and can add/subtract etc in his head. But, Kate Snow's way of teaching is a great way to learn and I found that this has helped him grasp his facts a little better. We haven't tried the division fact book yet, but we will be in a few weeks. I am purchasing the subtraction facts book this week, because our 7 yr. old is almost done with the addition facts book.
I searched and searched, watched many videos, and perused many curriculums and found that her curriculum to be the best fit. If you watch her videos, she explains it very well.

After a weird 4th quarter of school this past year thanks to COVID we decided to transfer our kids to a different school in our area, one that works a year ahead in math. While my kids know their addition and subtraction facts for the most part, their speed is down and I didn’t think they were problem solving their faces well (like thinking of 5+6 as 1 more than 5+5 which they should know quickly is 10.

This book is designed to take 4 days per lesson; however, I’ve been doing 2 days per lesson so that we will have time this summer to also go through the subtraction book and maybe (if we are really diligent) also be able to do some multiplication.

My kids really like the games (like playing Go Fish to make pairs that make 10) and tolerate the worksheets for review. I’ve made the worksheets fun this summer as well by having them rollerblade to the door and back between each question, etc, just to make it more fun too.

I would recommend this for any student who has already had a small intro to addition, although you could likely introduce them as you go, and for any older elementary students who could use a boost with speed.

The only reason this book doesn’t get a full 5 stars from me is because the game boards would really be ideally printed on card stock, so I made copies of those pages on card stock. It might work for gentle students on regular paper but my kids are just rough.

Two more small notes:
1. This book is a consumable for one child, or you can make photocopies for other children. It’s fine, but I just wish I had known that before purchasing or I may have purchased two instead of making copies every lesson to make it work for us this summer.

2. Make sure you’ve got a deck of cards, two types of counters (like red and blue buttons or whatever), and a coin.

Guys, this works! Best $12 I've ever spent. I am still in disbelief.
We have tried everything, traditional flash cards, tri-corner flash cards, cuisenaire rods, computer games, dice and card games, wrap ups, 3 different math curricula over the past 3 years...and my second grader most of the time still struggled to recall 2+1 on a flash card. Blank stares. She couldn't finish a worksheet with 5 of the simplest problems on it without a LOT of coaxing, reminding, refocusing. Blanking out, freezing up.
I did this with at the same time with both a second grader and a kindergartener who had zero formal math training. They BOTH get the process and can finish a 24 problem worksheet in under 5 minutes with 100% accuracy with zero interference from me. I am blown away. The only thing I did differently was practicing "visualizations" daily. I'd set up a problem on the 10 frames, flash it to them for a few seconds, and they would write the problem and the answer on their worksheet. We did this for 10 problems daily, and by week 5 my math-hating child said, "Why do you mostly just give us easy problems now?" Because they're mostly all easy now!
It is fast, simple, FUN, requires very few resources, and it WORKS.
There is a subtraction program being released in December 2016. I will not hesitate to buy it.

Excellent book for kids and anyone who wants to understand how to count using the tens frame method. In Switzerland and Germany kids learn to count using similar methods in school. Therefore it is great for parents who speak English to get a clear explanation so they can teach and support their kids in school. It is also great for those who homeschool their kids.

This is an amazing book and program. It is exactly what my son needed. The activities are short enough and lots of fun, so it's easy to squeeze it in even on busy days. My son looks forward to them. I will definetly be going through all the series for all my kids. Thanks Kate! :)
