5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Classroom Resource, March 28, 2000
By Teacher (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
I have been teaching math to special education students for a number of years now. I have a large collection of math resource books. This is one of my absolute favorites. It covers several math topics. The problems are applied to highly entertaining and humorous situations experienced by kids in a detective agency. This is one of the few math books with narrative, which is one of many reasons why its great. It would be great for kids in regular education too.
