Intro to Geometry: Grades 6 - 8

Love, love, love this book! Again, like some reviews might have mentioned, this is not for application-based learning i.e. there are "impractical" problems in here. However, that is not the reason I bought this book. I bought it to teach my kid a few things - 1. the method is not given to you (this is not a textbook, it is a practice book) 2. you have to apply your head to attain the solution; it is not a simple plug-in and spit out the answer type of book 3. there may be more than one way to get to the answer and most importantly of all... 4. the answer key will not show you how to get to the answer; it will only tell you if your answer is right. There is definitely parent involvement required for this book. I don't want my kid to be satisfied with getting the correct answers. We sit down and discuss how to solve a problem; then, I ask her to solve a similar one and see if she has understood the concept - applying the method for the previous problem may not work for the new one. She is forced to use her logic skills. That is exactly what I wanted. I could not be happier! Worth every penny for us!

I used this for three of my children, and just ordered a copy for the next one in line. This is a great book for teaching geometry and I highly recommend it as an intro to geometry, especially for kiddos who really struggle with math concepts.

Fantastic books! Lessons are well thought out and flow seamlessly . Great tips and review.

Useful math workbook for review and preview for 5th grade and 6th grade kids. Easy to follow instructions.

The book came very quickly but a little bent on the edges. I bought this to help my child get a headstart on Geometry for next year. I like the Kumon books because they teach in steps and build on what you have learned. My child doesn't care for geometry so is not so thrilled, but is not struggling so that is that. Would buy more in the kumon series.
