My third grader LOVES this system! She actually asks to "play" Hands On Equations... If your child loves math - or is afraid of it - get this system. It works.

I have found this to be an excellent concrete learning experience for elementary students. They are given enough concrete that the abstract comes easier.

I highly reccommend this product. I homeschool my boys. We use Saxon Math, but they get bored of doing it all the time. I also have many other math manipulatives that we supplement Saxon with. This one is my boys' favorite!! They love it! They are only 9 years old, and the equations they are able to easily solve using the methods in this program are amazing. It gives kids a great beginning foundation for the algebra they will be introduced to later in school.

I used this product when I was home tutoring a student in basic math. It was a great product that showed visually an abstract concept. Great purchase. One thing I didn't realize until after I purchased it was that the student booklet with practice pages can't be photocopied without buying an entire classroom set of the pieces.

This makes algebraic concepts so easy and obvious that anyone can get it! Wish it went farther, but once thru this course more advanced algebra is much easier because the foundation has been laid.
