Janice VanCleave's Math for Every Kid: Easy Activities that Make Learning Math Fun

This can even be a five star. It has a decent Contents listing. Each section gives examples, a few questions/problems, a project, and then the answers/solutions. Illustrations are included as well. This book This book does a lot with measurements, geometry basics, and graphs. Its "Basics" could use expanding. It covers fractions, fractional parts, equivalents, averages & multiples. Good to have on hand.Rocket

If you're looking for a science experiment idea, this book is for you.

So excited this book give you step by step examples of how to explain math to kids (6+). I first found it at our local library and had to have it for my own.

Book in great shape and great price too.

My grand-daughter loves it.

ok

But it's good for 5 to 10-year olds. It appeals to the hands-on kid, but doesn't speak down to them at all. Explains the concepts (fractions, averages, volume, graphs, measurements, etc.) clearly and quickly, then gives exercises and fun things for the kid to try. Mostly needs parent to be helping, though most are simple. We loved making a color spinner and folding paper (doubling). We charted doubling to show her what a parabola looked like. It has plenty of clear effective line sketches to illustrate. I found this at the library and decided to buy it.
