Okay. I thought this was a test prep type set. I got 3rd grade and I'll probably get 4th grade. It's a great review. I was intrigued by these at Barnes and Noble. From the two examples I was impressed, but looking at them now, I realize I have some of this already. A big chunk of the cards are multiplication flash cards 1-10s I think (excluding 11s and 12s? WHYYYYY)....I'd SAY THERE ARE about 8 skills to work on. Place value (what's the place value of each digit in this number ____________? I liked that except this was beginning of the year and for your low students that are behind. This was really 2nd grade. 3rd grade is supposed to go to the 100 thousands, so I felt cheated on it. Perimeter and area, fractions (BASICCCCCCCCCCCCCC Seriously. A box with 3/4 shaded and you're asking what's the shaded part called? First grade I taught that skill. Time filler/confidence builder cards (to my group it's wasting time), I LOVE THE CARDS THAT SHOW expanded form via the bars and blocks. I guess they're called Base 10???? (cube =1s 10 cubes glued =10s 10 of those put together to look like a waffle= 100s. etc. I wish there were more of those cards. Great practice. I added on there what's the place value, spelling, and how to say it outloud.Overall it was an okay set. Not worth the money, but I'm going to use this as a review center. I'd been doing Math Minutes (Daily Math kinda) and most of these questions pop up on those type of worksheets.Each section does give a reteaching moment (definition of area/perimeter and examples)I'm not sure I'll get 4th. We'll see. There are about 10 cards ish per section. Round to the nearest 10, 100, and 1000. Again I think that' 2nd grade not 3rd. This task is SUPER HARD FOR KIDS TO GET. I added more numbers on the last five cards of each group to show how you're only rounding the last two, three, or four numbers and keeping the rest. So, good visual for that...
I bought these flashcards to help my grandson be prepared for the third grade. He is a very bright child, but has trouble with transitions to new grades. He is afraid of not knowing how to do things. So I used these cards to see what he knows already and they proved to be covering some of the things he has already been introduced to. It helped his confidence to grow because I was able to tell him he already knew a lot of the things he will be doing in the third grade even though he will be learning more about them. It made him smile to think that he knows some of what he will be learning! I will be going over this material with him this summer along with the Sylvan books geared to the 3rd grade that he can get a feel of the math he will be learning more about in the fall. I am very pleased with this product and others I have recently purchased from Sylvan as well.
The flashcards are as expected for 3rd grade although they are more tailored for the first part of the school year. Some of the things my son was studying at the end of the year were not included in the set.
We got this for my son's advanced placement testing to use while in line at Disney Land for Thanksgiving and it was a terrific way to drill him on math basics quickly and with minimal fuss.
love it, for a practice.
