-= AIMS AND PURPOSE OF THIS BOOK =-

If your child can add the numbers 1 and 2 to whole numbers, this book will expose him or her to the broader world of numbers by providing opportunities to practice adding the numbers 1 through 9. As children learn to add 3, 4, 5, and bigger single-digit numbers in a step-by-step manner, they will gain solid calculation skills without being confused about decimal places.

As in the case of addition using the numbers 1 and 2, children can master addition using the numbers 3 through 9 only after they acquire number recitation and writing skills. Building basic addition skills is vital to understanding the decimal system, which is the foundation of higher-level arithmetic concepts and skills taught at school such as multiplication, division, and fractions. The purpose of this book is to prepare children for higher-level mathematics by improving their basic addition skills.

Although it is important to teach children how to combine and break down numbers in order to make them understand addition and subtraction, we should never force them understand addition and subtraction, we should never force them to swallow ideas blindly. Doing so only reduces a child’s desire to learn. Children are willing to learn what is easily understood to them, and once they learn something new, they want to know more. Kumon Workbooks’ incremental method will encourage children to gain solid academic skills without stress while giving them the pleasure of learning.
