Math for summer for a kid bridging second grade


Recommended Posts

Flash Kids has a little practice workbook for place value (1st grade level).  We did not use that particular one, but I've bought other Flash Kids workbooks for practice, and both of my kids enjoy them.  They offer a variety of separate topics so you can focus on an area of particular challenge.

 

For general refreshers of all the concepts, you could try either Math Minutes or Daily Math Practice (or both).  I would get the 2nd grade book(s), as they start out pretty basic.  Each of these touches on about 4 or 5 basic math concepts in one page or a half-page.

 

Another idea is the BrainQuest workbook, which just does a quick review of many different topic areas.

 

I know you said you didn't love Singapore, but you might try the workbooks dedicated specifically to word problems.  They are pretty simple so the kids develop the ability to structure problems on their own.

There is a toy store locally that sells a summer workbook and gives a 20% (I think) on any one item up to $50 if they bring it in entirely filled in during the two weeks before school starts up in the fall. They can miss up to 5 pages I believe.  We'll be doing that again this year. It covers math and reading and English as well as some fun exercises and Citizenship type things.
