NOT As Good As Other Reviewers Have Said... |
The Previous `Negative' Reviewer was right. This book consists of worksheets without any coherent 'introduction', progress and testing format. You won't find anything spelled out and explained, though there are answers in the back.
In addition, this DK book (and generally we love their stuff) DOES NOT correspond to what every Fifth Grade class is doing these days. However, I don't really see this as a complete drawback, as one can look at the table of contents and make a decision based on that as to whether it is `right' for your child.
The biggest drawback, as I see it, is that you can basically only use this book as a supplement to another text. Or, in other words, It would make a bad homeschooling text.
Three Stars. Not a good homeschooling-type type book because you are left on your own to explain things. An okay book if you are looking for additional problems for your child to work. |

Who's Curriculum? |
| This has many "worksheets," no explanations, no really interesting problems, and did not match our fifth-grade curriculum. It doesn't even match our fourth-grade curriculum--way too basic! It's just drill, drill, drill. At least it offers good practice for basics that many fifth graders already have nailed. I appreciate its easy-to read design. |

Couldn't be better |
| My 10 year old son loves this book! He's already completed more than 1/3 of the book and it's only September 19. I like the outline, plenty of review exercises (to increase a sense of mastery) and it appears to cover enough topics to match this year's curriculum. I've already ordered the 3rd grade version for his younger brother. |
