My Thoughts
With the use of balances, inside-out math and Tic Tac Math, the kids will discover that mathematics is more than just adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. Geared for students in grades 2 to 5 this fun little book will challenge them to take their investigator hat out and use mathematical reasoning, critical thinking as well as computational skills to solve the problems presented in the pages.
Personally, I think I have discovered some jewels in this Balance Math & More series. I find it important that my kids use logic and reasoning to solve problems and these gems are a must for any homeschoolers. I was impressed when I received the book and even my husband thought it was a neat product. He also thought that reasoning is a skill that the kids must learn.
What we particularly appreciate from The Critical Thinking Co. is that is seems that their products are reproducible which means a lot for us as we have four kids. Each of them will go through the book when they reach the ages to use it. So if you can imagine how much it helps for us imagine how it can be beneficial for families of numerous kids like 8 and up. I know such families and I am certain that they love to know about reproducible products!
