Five out of five stars
This book of
word problems covers many familiar topics that children of the grade seven
level can understand and oftentimes are required to solve. For example, young
sports fans are generally familiar with shooting percentage in basketball and
batting average in baseball. Nearly all children have received some money and
have to determine how to spend it and to make sure to include the sales tax. By
the seventh grade most student have had to figure out how to apportion the
shared cost of items such as a pizza.
If you are
looking for a large set of word problems
to challenge students at the seventh grade level, this book is a very
cost effective way to do that. Brief solutions to all of the problems are
included at the end.
