Information about Subtraction Secrets
Posted 5/24/2009 by Merideth Fisher

Rating: 

It think these books are great, BUT there wasn't a "level" that let me know what I was getting. As it turned out, when I received this product, I discuvered that it is too easy for my students and I won't be able to use it. I think you need to put what grade level these books are appropriate for (unless I missed it). As I have different books from the same publisher, "Level A" means different things for different books, which i discovered on the back of the books. For example, in one book I have, "Level A" is for grades 3-4 (which I teach), and this book is for grades 1-2. So...my recommendation is to be specific on your item descriptions. I went ahead and kept the book to give to a colleague who could use it, but I was disappointed (naturally) that it was of no use to me!

Rating: 

I purchased these books for my first graders. They really enjoy the addition one, and should be ready for subtraction shortly. It's a fun way to get a little math practice in.

I personally thought this product was excellent. But the final result will come from my 7 year old Granddaughter.

Self-Motivating Practice For Kids!
Posted 12/31/2007 by Misty Post

Rating: 

Subtraction secrets is an excellent supplement and practice material for children learning, practicing, and reviewing their subtraction match facts. The interesting real-life situations with clues to solve the puzzles are fun for children, and keep them asking for more pages! Instead of boring math pages, this book motivates children to practice math facts, while also providing directional practice (north, south, east, and west), and stimulating creativity in the child.

I got this book and the companion Addition Adventures book for my 7 year old. She likes math and puzzles and it seemed like a good fit. She does like it. The puzzles are fun and keep her interested. We've just started it, so maybe we have not yet seen it all, but it might be nice if the format of the puzzle/solution was varied.

This book was purchased for our literacy backpacks. Each pack is theme based and full of books and manipulatives. These packs are checked out for a two week time period. We hope that this book will be a useful addition to our subtraction backpack.

My son is in first grade and does some second grade work in math. This is very age appropriate for him as far as the math goes. He needs a little assistance on the mapping part, but that's also a fun new skill.

I purchased this item because I will be student teaching, in a first grade class, in a few weeks. The book is large enough to make copies from and I think it will be a good activity for the students to do for "morning work." I think the students will like to product, too because it is almost a puzzle for them. They have to follow directions and use Geographic skills (reading a compass) to solve each puzzle/page.

This was a gift, but I observed it being used. It is being enjoyed by the person it was given to while giving that same person math practice. The problems could possibly have been a bit more difficult.

Subtraction Secrets ROCKS!

My 6 year old daughter (in 1st Grade) loves this workbook. I love that it teaches subtraction in a visual way. She's also getting practice graphing. The puzzles are just long enough for her to get in good practice, but not so long that she loses interest.
