The book presents 36 weeks of work in M-F segments. The segments are short so there has never been a battle with my son over doing them. He is in 5th and I am using this to keep his skills fresh as they delve into newer concepts. It covers basic math facts such as add/sub/mult/div as well as ratios, some geometry and word problems. Good all-around review.

The Daily Math Practice is a wonderful tool to help keep the students up on all math skills thanks to the wide variety of problems. It is quick and easy to use in the classroom.

This is such a good book for each grade. I highly recommend it. They are short problems for each day and my twins don't mind doing them once a day (sometimes they even do more!). It reinforces what they already learned, which gives them the confidence to continue. This book also challenges them on other types problems that require me to explain, but the concept here is to get them thinking and possibly even get them prepared for what they will soon cover in school.

The Bad: Some of the review questions are ridiculously easy -- really 6+8=?, come on, they're in 4th grade. Give them a challenging addition/subtraction review question. (Beside, that type of single review question doesn't help.) Then they slip in a logic question. We came upon one which totally stumped a room full of adults (I'm not kidding). Really? they're only 9 years old. Granted, some 9 year old out there can probably figure those things out, but the majority are still trying to understand fractions. So, if you're like me, and looking for something that reviews tricky division word problems and 4th grade geometry, this book is not chock-full of useful stuff. Also, if your school uses Everyday Math, this book suffers from the same problem, not enough practice to fully in-grain a math method for long term effectiveness. The Good: I like that the book is broken down into days, and each day has 5 questions. That makes it manageable, and your child will not feel overwhelmed.

Received fast and in excellent condition. This is exactly what the kids are learning in school and it is a very good review if they already learned how to do the work. I would highly recommend this.

I bought this book to help my daughter keep up with school material over the summertime and also to help enhance some of her skills. The format is great with 5 tasks to perform day by day -- the questions were spot on for her grade level. I highly recommend the books from this series.

This is a different format than the Daily Math for 3rd grade. I use daily math in my classroom and it is wonderful. It touches on many different standands and keep practice on those already covered. I LOVE these books!

i got this book to keep my ingoing fourth grader focused during the summer. It has short varied activities that she looks forward to doing on a daily basis. The problem set only takes about a half an hour to complete and discuss. Great little workbook!
