Learn Math Fast System Volume I: Basic Operations Paperback – June 16, 2011

Just what my son needed to help start with the basics and help build his confidence in math!

Helpful.

This has been a great edition to my home schooling library. My son has always struggled with math. Visually easy on the eyes. Not overwhelming. It’s helped improve his accuracy which gives him more confidence in his abilities in math which is so essential. Worth every penny.

This whole series is excellent!

This book builds up math skills nicely. It not only teaches how to do math on paper, it teaches how to do them in your head. I bought volume 1 for my 1st grader and volume 2 for my 4th grader, but both are using vol 1 right now.My mom is my substitute teacher and even she's learning stuff!You'll need to supplement with additional materials (i'm using free online sources) to make sure your kid us learning stuff required for state testing.

I am a homeschooling parent. My oldest child did fine with our previously chosen math curriculum, but my second really got stuck at learning the multiplication facts and got way behind. It seemed an impossible task to ever get her back up to grade level. She dreaded math and just felt no good at it.I ordered this in hopes of helping her get back to grade level in an efficient way. It has been a huge success!! She finished the first book in 3 weeks and can’t wait to start the next. She actually reaches for her math first now. This has solidified the basics for her and built her confidence so much.I’m using this also with my 3rd grader (who I’ve discovered was getting by with his math by using a lot of finger counting!) and my 5th grader. My fifth grader absolutely melts down if I try to time the tests, but as long as I skip the timing part, he’s doing great also and really building a much better recall of the math facts that will support him so much as he advances into higher math. And now that I know we can get through the material so quickly, I can be patient to let him build this foundation without feeling pressure to rush him along so he won’t fall behind.So grateful for this program!!

Arrived quickly!

Edit: after a few weeks of using it we are learning a different way to add and subtract simple math equations i.e. 8+6 and my adult (apparently stupid) mind is blown! I have been adding these the hard way and memorizing facts for nothing and we are in chapter 1!!A homeschool parent recommended this. Since we had been having trouble moving forward in our Math curriculum I decided to try it. We're still in the "easy stuff" that we've already learned but it's hands-on and not rushed. I love that we can print out additional worksheets for free or buy a book of extras.
