5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Math Book, October 4, 2000

As a middle school math teacher I was amazed when a parent brought this book to me. It was great. It has lots of interesting activites to do in math along with some very good worksheets. After having the book for thirty minutes I had already done to activities for my 7th grade classroom. This would be a great book for teachers and parents who are looking for some extra practice for their students.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific and Fun!!!!, June 3, 2009

Although this book is for "reluctant Math Students" I found it to be perfect for my advanced 7th grade Math class. I used these fun, clever pages as worksheets for Extra Credit. It was wonderful as extra practice and had a slightly different approach than their regular text. I highly recommend this book.
