I picked up this workbook as supplemental material because someone on a homeschooling website recommended it. Well, I've wound up depending upon it as my primary 7th grade math book (leaving my Saxon Math books almost untouched). Great, clear exercises, and plenty of 'em! (Though if you're an adult who's brushing up on your own math while helping your children, you may need to rely on a text to explain exactly why the authors are choosing to solve problems the way they are....i.e., there are always alternative methods to solving equations, and I've been sure to explain to my son that there are several ways to arrive at the same answer, a key point in understanding decimals, fractions & percents.) Please, Spectrum, continue past 8th grade!

Just what I wanted! It's a wonderful practice book that covers all the basics. Lots of repetition, which is what I felt my child needed to really get comfortable with operations. I'm using it to keep his skills from backsliding over the summer.

I purchased grade 7th and 8th. No wonder they stop there because it's the same materials all over again. Just buy either one, 7th or 8th, and use it for both grades because unless you need more practice problems, it's the same topics.

I bought this book to keep my child fresh on math during the summer. The work sheets were great. As this was a review of what she learned during the school year she didn't need direction. If you are looking for a book to teach math, this isn't it- but it was PERFECT for our needs.

I bought this book used (from Amazon)and it was like new.

My home schooled 7th grader is using this book for math this year. It seems to cover all the basics, but teaching some of the concepts will take extra effort. The book does not teach; it only tests for understanding. The beginning lessons are very easy reviews, but they do increase in difficulty.

Great learning for summer. My son's going into 6th grade. Should've ordered 8th and 9th grade editions. He finished the 7th grade edition very quickly. Of course parents involvement a must.Answers in the back of the book are very helpful.Easy to read and understand. Excellent way to get ahead of the game for next year.

Although the title indicates that it is 7th Grade math, it is actually for 6th grade in the California school system.

This book is not user friendly for kids. I had trouble comprehending the examples (which were too few) and I used to be a teacher!! I would never use this series for my class.

This is a very good workbook and I would love to see everyone buy it... great to learn some math in 7th grade. If your child just needs a little extra help or needs to advance a little bit you should buy it.

From a teacher who has used this system for well over 10 years, this is a fantastic series of books! They are simple, easy to understand and very thorough, unlike most other Math books on the market today.
