Pretty short, but did the job of getting my son ready for 3rd grade math. This book was good, not the best of the 2 that I ordered.

Large enough print and clear instructions. Even includes a word problem on the bottom of some pages that basically concentrated on equation type (a x b) problems.

Solid drills with clear and concise reviews on 3rd grade multiplication and division topics. Third grade children need significant practice to really grasp the calc skills. This ready-to-use resource includes more than 40 fun practice pages. The simple directions and fun exercises make them perfect for kids to use independently in school or as homework. The problems are not difficult. Its goal is to make your child master the fundamentals, not just know them. <br /> <br />An effective way to achieve mastery is to time the drills. I recommend you run a clock for your child and set a fun speed goal to get rid of procrastination. For a benchmark, you can use Beestar online math tests to compare your child's speed with others. My son's math skills (include speed) improved significantly with this book. I'm glad I bought it. <br /> <br />Highlights: <br /> <br />Multiplication and division facts <br />Multiplying 2- and 3-digit numbers <br />Multiplying with regrouping <br />Multiplying money <br />Word problems <br />Dividing with remainders <br /> This book is what you expect from Scholastic.

I use these Scholastic Review books one day each week just for a change of pace. They are not good if you are using them for your primary instruction books, but the reviews are helpful since they often come at a concept in a slightly different way.
