Reviews for Math Detective® A1

A great alternative to the textbooks out there today. My kids loved the problems and their twists and turns.

I am enjoying the Math Detective®. I like the integration of the reading and the reading comprehension components. The real world questions are interesting and engaging for the kids. When asking the questions for higher level thinking,I like the approach. It is not simply: explain in another way or show how you got the answer but is specific with the higher order thinking questions. Basic things such as font size, readability, number of questions on a page, answers in the back, user friendly and the way it is organized are all excellent. I like how it develops skills and is not specific to a single concept. Putting the thinking on the student is a great idea and the book does this nicely.

Math Detective is perfect preparation for the WASL test. It works great because it helps students learn to follow directions. I've never seen anything like this and I've looked all over the internet.
