Spid is bored and longs for adventure. When he daydreams, one day,
of faraway places, he finds himself flying back in time. But his
adventure isn't quite as he expected ... Features two songs: 'I
Dreamed of Faraway' and 'Seven Wonders'. The songs have
accompanying QR codes to take readers to musical versions of the
songs. You can also find music videos of the songs at
https://spidthespider.com and
https://www.youtube.com/spidthespider. Spid is a lowly spider, who
wants to better himself, write songs, and marry his girlfriend Bid,
though he is prone to hilarious mishaps mostly of his own making.
He is hard-working, cool, and a role model for young children. As
well as encouraging children to read and love books, Spid's
adventures also teach valuable life lessons, including
determination and what psychologists call a 'growth mindset'
(desire to better oneself and succeed), the importance of
friendship, and sustainability. With very creative prose, Spid's
adventures are fun for parents, and teachers to read to, and with,
their children. They present lots of opportunities to invest
dramatic licence thus helping adults and children interact and
engage. The humour works at multiple levels from silly and
slapstick to more sophisticated wordplay and concepts. Thus,
children will discover more and enjoy reading the stories time and
time again.

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.
