We are homeschoolers who use this book as a supplement to our computer-based curriculum. It gives my students a bit of handwriting time they don't get very much, and they can exercise their brains a bit at the same time outside of academics. We've used the previous two levels of this title. We are very pleased with all of them.
These are activities designed to assist with critical thinking in all subjects. They are not activities in all subjects. The ability to think spatially, follow directions, understand classifications and sequences, and use logical thinking will assist students in their studies of reading, writing, math, and science.
This is a challenging book. My kids thought it looked easy but have found it requires them to put more effort than they really wanted. As a mom, I'm very happy with the challenges it presents them. It turns math upside down so they begin to really understand those concepts.
This book is a good book to teach your children thinking skills that they don't teach in the schools. I would recomend this for any family homeschooled,public schooled, or anything.
I got this for my daughter who is starting 5th grade. It's a fun book, lots of mind puzzles, geometric shape manipulation, etc. It's definitely a type of brain training kids don't get in school.
This is a good book/series. They cover a wide range of thought provoking concepts. From word usage, to reading a map, to classifying items. Too much to cover there are about 4 or so books in all and they range from say first or second grade level to high school.
