Description:
The Blaster learning series has long been popular with children and parents because of its award-winning combination of comprehensive curriculum skills and visually exciting graphics. In Math Blaster for First Grade, children are introduced to measuring and comparison, time, sequencing, addition and subtraction, and story problems. Like all programs in this series, it manages to totally avoid boring old "skill and drill" and launches kids into an exciting gamelike environment that doesn't feel like homework. Whether this program is introduced at the beginning of the school year or later as a summer refresher, you'll find it appropriate for most first graders, as it includes five different levels of difficulty. And with 150 different lessons and over 1,000 problems and puzzles to solve there's more than enough to keep children interested. There are also lots of helpful tips that are great for encouraging those who need that extra bit of instruction. By using "Parent Tracker," it's easy for you to view and monitor your child's progress, and there are printable certificates for positive reinforcement. Whether you child is struggling in math, or in need of new challenges, Math Blaster is sure to provide your first grader with hours of both learning and fun. --Jill Lightner
