2.0 out of 5 stars Look elsewhere, Jun 18 2004
By A Customer
Each chapter of this book clearly and simply introduces one aspect of middle school mathematics. Following each introduction are a set of problems aimed at three progressively difficult skill levels. There is an answer sheet at the back of the book.

Unfortunately, what's missing from this book is the essence of any math course: showing your work. Consequently, you will find no guidance or strategy(ies) for solving the problems. Moreover, if you have the wherewithall to solve the more difficult problems, you probably aren't going to find very useful the abecedarian introductions the author provides.

These points, taken in conjuction with the amateurish, mouse-drawn computer graphics, make this one disappointing book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I was looking for..., Jun 3 2002
By A Customer
This book really saved me! In my first year of teaching a 5th grade class of gifted/high achieving math students I struggled to find the right resource to adequately challenge the students. I particularly liked this book because each unit (chapter) is all-inclusive. There is a great lesson at the beginning followed by practice and then three levels of questions. The only supplement I needed to create was a method of assessing my students. I highly recommend this book to any parent or teacher looking for a math challenge for students.
