Kumon Grade 4 Decimals & Fractions (Kumon Math Workbooks)

I really like this textbook. I used it for one of my Summer tutoring clients whom needed to go at slower pace and, needed a stronger decimal and fraction foundation to build on for the next year. It begins really basic and builds slowly. This book isn't for children who are on the average or above average curve as they will grow bored as it will be too repetitive for them. I recommend this book as a supplement for a child struggling in this area at a one lesson a day pace then move on to Kumon Grade 5 Decimals & Fractions after completing.

I love this extra math practice for my 4th grade son. It is great that I can have him work on a couple of lessons per night (in addition to his regular schoolwork) and can see for myself whether or not he is understanding the concepts. He doesn't have a problem doing this extra math because he REALLY likes the idea that he is "working ahead" of where the class is in school. I would recommend this for children who perform best when they get plenty of repetition, children who may be behind and their parents need a book to use with them, or those who might want to work ahead of the class.

I was tutoring a child who was having issues with the topic. When tutoring one of the difficulties one encounters is finding examples to practice with. This book has lots of math problems to work, and after doing several different math problems of the same type, the child pick up the technique to solve the question. The book has so many math problems to work with and different types of problems from straight foward fractions, to word type problems. Oncenyou figure out where the child is having issues you find questions correlate with it and work them out. Once you do a few many children get the grasp and do well.

My son used to get tutoring through Kumon several years ago when he was in public school. So when I was shopping for math workbooks for our homeschooling that I saw this Kumon workbook and others I grabbed it really quick. And I am really glad I did...Kumon's way of teaching at the tutoring/learning centers has been brought to there workbooks now too! and it is awesome...They start the children off with easy work to first work on building their confidence in themselves as to their ability to do the work comfortably and then slowly work there way into higher learning...Before the child knows it he or she is working at a much higher level with the same ease...I love it!!! thanks Kumon PRAISE GOD!!!

I bought this for my son to practice fractions and decimals during the summer before heading to fourth grade. All of the lessons were very easy for him to complete. I expected it to be a little bit more challenging, but overall I liked the book. The answer key is in the back, which makes it easy and quick to check the work.
