Category Description for Kumon Math Workbooks (1-6):
A math program based on the Kumon method. Basically, the earmarks of
this system are:
- Concepts introduced in small, incremental steps, allowing
children to master them without confusion
- Single topic books rather than mixed strands. Children
concentrate just on addition, for example, before moving to subtraction
- Concepts are taught by discovery method than being spelled
out
The series is meant to be self-directed. Students take charge of their
own learning on every level. They complete pages, check their work,
record their scores, and determine whether to move on or review. The
pace almost guarantees success. Children should work a "few" pages a
day; assignments should take about 20 minutes to complete. Pages are
marked with the skill level required at top and the points each
question is valued at (a very young child will need some help totaling
points). Very short instruction (or an example) is given on a few
pages. For example, there is a short explanation when children begin to
subtract a 2-digit number from a 3-digit number where borrowing is
needed. However, the child is given every opportunity to intuit this
beforehand. By the time he reaches this page, he has already been
subtracting double-digit numbers for many pages. Some of these would
require borrowing, but, since they are able to subtract, say, 7 from
12, the Kumon method wants the child to see a pattern when increasing
to 7 from 22, 7 from 32, etc. This does remind me of the approach used
in Miquon as well. Besides these very infrequent helps there are just
some small prompts for children to look for patterns in their answers,
and words of encouragement. Pages are pleasing to the eye; they are
colored, clean, and problems are well-spaced. The Kumon method has been
used successfully with children around the world for over 50 years. It
does seem like it would help a child to take charge of his own learning
and help himself to understanding rather than being spoon-fed each
bite. For Kumon math earlier than Grade 1, see the Kumon section in
Early Learning.

While building a soapbox racing car, a pair of friends provide an
easy-to-understand lesson in how simple machines are all around us,
making our work more efficient. Michael and Luci show readers that
a broom is a lever, nails are wedges, and a screwdriver is both a
lever and a wheel and axle. The two also prove that curious
children can be just like scientists, making observations and using
how and what questions to explore physical science principles they
encounter all the time. Michael s Racing Machine is part of the I
Wonder Why book series, written to ignite the curiosity of children
in grades K 6 while encouraging them to become avid readers. These
books explore the marvels of light, color, machines, sound, and
other phenomena related to physical science. Included in each
volume is a Parent/Teacher Handbook with coordinating activities.
The I Wonder Why series is written by an award-winning science
educator and published by NSTA Kids, a division of NSTA Press.
Let’s Create Fingerprints, Picture Perfect and Festive Fun allow your child to
create fun, new works of art just using ink and their own fingerprints! With
over 30 activities per title, these activity books provide hours of entertainment.
Fingerprint art is an effective and fun way to teach children pre-writing and fine
motor skills, as well as concentration and imagination. These activities
encourage children to use their imagination to complete the tasks, from
printing spikes on a dinosaur to decorating a dress, to creating reindeer to pull
Santa’s sleigh.
