enVision Math: Interactive Homework, Grade 4
T**M
Good grade 4 workbook, could be better
This book is like the other enVision Math Interactive Homework books. They offer one page of problems per section of the corresponding textbook. There are a few typos and problems that are out of alignment, but not too many. Every textbook publisher has those kinds of issues, and I find they usually get worked out by the second or third edition.Overall, the problems are OK and mostly grade-appropriate. I do feel that the curriculum in the higher elementary grades (4, 5, and 6) sometimes skimps on computational practice in multiplication and long division in favor of introducing some other topics that may not be necessary for that grade. E.G., I think chapters 3 through 8 ought to take up a good 30% - 50% of fourth grade, but then you wouldn't ever get to some of the other topics included in the book, like probability or data graphs, but that would be OK in my opinion. One thing I really do like is the introduction of basic fractions even in the really early grades (like second) and how to use fractions and decimals starting in third grade and continuing on up. So you no longer "spring" fractions for the first time upon a student in fourth or fifth grade, as was the case 20 - 30 years ago.As I wrote in my review of the grade 2 book, the curriculum reminds me a bit of the Singapore method in that they introduce each topic across all grade levels, but the problems just get harder and the numbers larger. For instance, in second grade you might have multiplication presented as repeated addition (3x4 means "three groups of four" = 4 + 4 + 4), but by fourth or fifth grade you are doing longer computational problems with multiplication.Overall, it's a decent workbook. However, I would recommend supplementing it with another book that focuses specifically on more long multiplication and long division review.If you're interested, the chapters are:1. Numeration (up to the hundred millions place)2. Adding & Subtracing Whole Numbers (up to five digits in size)3. Multiplication Meanings & Facts4. Division Meanings & Facts5. Multiplying by 1-Digit Numbers6. Patterns & Expressions7. Multiplying by 2-Digit Numbers8. Dividing by 1-Digit Divisors9. Lines, Angles, and Shapes10. Understanding Fractions11. Adding & Subtracting Fractions12. Understanding Decimals13. Operations with Decimals14. Area & Perimeter15. Solids16. Measurement, Time & Temperature17. Data and Graphs18. Equations19.

Since i got this Homework Workbook, my son is spending time to work on this extra homework everyday and his grade increased by one level up. He is constantly getting the A on his Math test.
