Brilliant Teaching MethodFeb 11, 2011
By Paige Turner
"Paige"
Whether this book is from the "real" Singapore math publisher or not, I have no idea.
What I do know is this book is brilliant. Their approach to story problems is ground-breaking. This approach would have even helped me in my college math courses! They present a very clear, intuitive way of solving difficult story problems for kids using a very simple model. In fact, the use of their model is even faster than Algebra in most cases.
What's amazing is my daughter actually enjoys using this book at home with me to supplement the sub-standard math education she's getting in her NYC public school. The approach to math is so much more interesting and intuitive. I wish I was taught math this way.
The book has a very useful front three pages for the tutor/parent/instructor showing the elegant way to solve the problems. Then it has a variety of sections that cover the basics that 6th grade kids (In the US) should know how to do. The answers in the back are both accurate and complete, showing exactly how they solved each problem.
This is a fantastic supplemental resource for parents frustrated with the slow pace of math learning in U.S. schools.
