Kumon Grade 4 Word Problems (Kumon Math Workbooks) Paperback – May 31, 2009

The child writes every day. The quality is good and the content is also excellent.

Trained as a CPA, I am set on getting my kids to love and excel at math. These Kumon Word Problems Workbooks have been a great addition to their grade level math practice and, I think, add significant value and complexity for them to grow in their problem-solving and critical thinking skills. My kids use these workbooks after school, on the weekend, and I plan to also have them use them this summer, too. I love that they are not a rote page of math problems (they have flashcards from school for things like that: multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, which encourage automaticity) but allow them to take multiple variable inputs and solve the problem. That is a much needed skill in life, which I think these Kumon Word Problem Workbooks go the extra mile to instill. Highly recommend!

Every summer I buy workbooks for my two boys. This year I chose Kumon, I purchase the whole collection of Grade 4 for my son going into 4th grade and the whole collection of Grade 3 (thinking Grade 2 would be too easy) for my son going into 2nd grade. Later on I found that my younger son had difficulties in some areas in Grade 3 so I bought Grade 2.This has been a great guidance for my kids and I. The books helped my kids learn step by step and I really do see improvements. Its great for me, I simply use the answer sheet to correct and it helps me find out what their weaknesses are. Overall I really like Kumon workbooks compare to previous companies that I have purchased because I do see improvements. Next year I will purchase Kumon again.

these are nice for children who understand not kids

Fourth grader is loving the practice pages. Lots of room for her work and not too many problems. Format is user friendly.

Im am helping a friends daugther study for the AZ Aims test. Not much information on the test is available nor study material. The makers of the test have three released exams, and thats all so, i was looking for a book with similar word type problems to study with. I figured out, the was having issues with certain keywords that changed the meaning of what was being asked. So with this workbook, I know had lots of word problems with similar style as the test. Well after doing a few problems in the book, the child finally started to see the trick question. The child finally passed the exam with ease after having failed it before being tutored. But with out the book it would have been difficult to write so many brand new questions.

Great way for your child to spend time working math problems. Easy to read and understand. Answers in the back of book give step by step instructions on how they came to the answer. Would use this product again for the next grade level during the summerCBooker

I have ordered all the books in the 3rd and 4th grade series...math and reading/writing. After I ordered 2 books, I was so impressed that I wanted them all. It is perfect for "filling in the gaps" for my son. He can work at his own pace and continue learning throughout the summer. We are going to continue with these books throughout the school year. I would highly recommend these books to any parent who wants to help their child make major improvements in reading and math.
