Helping Children Learn Mathematics

Recently I took a college class that used this book as its textbook. The authors did an awesome job of teaching the material. I learned a lot of valuable information which can be applied toward working with young children. However, the text is full of many typos. . The editors did a poor job on this edition. A college level textbook should not have an excessive amount of errors. It should be recalled and revised before any other student pays the high price for this text. I Gave a copy of this letter with a list of the many typos that I noticed to the math department at SPSCC in Olympia, WA suggesting they don't use this book for the students (until it is re-edited).

My daughter needed this for one of her college classes and it was way cheaper than getting it thru her school.

Great book just as advertised

I rented this book from amazon for my class. It was an excellent book and I loved it but the condition I got it from Amazon was appalling. It looked like someone had let their dog use it was a chew toy for months

All the pages are in tact, use it every day in class

I had to use this book for a college class. This was a wonderful resource in teaching strategies and techniques for teaching children mathematics.

Great. Thank You

Love the ability to rent. Amazon takes the worry out of forgetting to return on time. Great reminder and so easy to return.

I very rarely leave reviews on products, it is even more rare that I leave a review that’s negative however when I purchased this book I was under the impression that there was “minimal” highlighting, normal wear and tear. This book is wrecked, it is water damaged, there is highlighting on almost every page, multiple bent pages on the top and bottom corners and it smells mildly. On top of all of this I ordered my book at the end of January/ beginning off February and it arrived over two weeks late. I have had this book in my possession for less then 10 minutes, it is not even close to worth the price that I payed for it especially now that I am over halfway through my course. I am thoroughly disappointed with this purchase.
