 Math Doesn't Suck November 3, 2008

My daughter's tutor who is a fifth grade teacher borrowed this book from us and took it to his elementary school. His supervisor ordered 5 books for the the school. They felt the language was very appropriate for kids and it had very good tips, ideas, and ways of explaining math so that kids could relate. It was originally recommended to me by my daughter's 7th grade teacher. My daughter has always struggled in math and we look forward to using this book daily.
Great reference--serious home work help October 8, 2008

I bought this book when my daughter faced some serious lags in starting the school year--3 days into a new school and 6th grade, and she was out from an appendectomy. I knew we'd have to do some serious instruction at home to keep her up to speed. Because our math text book is so unfriendly, the teacher recommended another reference, but this popped up on the Amazon suggestions. The positive reviews grabbed my interest, and when the book came I found that I actually wanted to read it! It has come in very handy during teary episodes of "I don't know how to do this"--it covers all those topics we once learned, but forgot, and makes it very fast and easy to re-learn (for parents) and learn (for kids). It's fun, engaging, and very helpful. Thanks, Danika!

I am an elementary school teacher. I love the ideas in theis book, but wonder why the title has to be what it is. I cannot share it with students because I teach them not to use the word suck.

Great book. This makes math seem much less intimidating to students AND their teachers.
I bought it to show to my grad students who are going to be teachers. One bought her own copy after borrowing my copy and another student promptly borrowed the returned book.
