Painless Math Word Problems (Barron's Painless Series)

3 reviews
Marcie Abramson B.S. Ed.M.

Barron's Educational Series, 2001

The greatest math book
This is a really fun book to read. The peoples names are really funny and it is very challenging to do the word problems. I am having so much fun giving the problems to my friends and family to see if they can do them. I know that I will do so much better in school because I have been practicing my word problems. I would suggest that this book should be used in school too.

Excellent resource
I used this book, the Sattler texts, NASP Website and the School Psych Best Practice books. After reviewing a variety of texts and materials this book was the condensed summary that I needed to review before exam day. My score was 730 on the June 2007 session and was my first time writing. I also used it to help prepare for the EPPP and passed the July 2007 session of that exam.

1 review
Herman Gewirtz, Jonathan S. Wolf M.A. Ed.M.

Barron's Educational Series, 2007

Tough. Too tough for even the writers, it seems
I'll put it out now - I ranked top 5% for the NJ science league for physics I . I've had many experiences with questions aimed at really testing your knowledge, and some of these questions do that. But some of them do it too much, to an extent where the question covers information NOT even in the information they cover in their chapter review sections. Worse, there are many glaring errors, both ...

The Moon Seems to Change
I am a second grade teacher and this book enriched our textbook wonderfully. The illustrations and text were easy for the children to understand (and even taught me a few things as well!) We read several of Franklyn M. Branley's books during our year, but this one seems to be a class favorite.

Kregel Publications, 2006

A year and a half after publication...
...and this book is still excellent. While others wrote books merely to address issues raised by The Da Vinci Code or even just cash in on the hype, these three Christian scholars wrote a broad defense of the Biblical account of Christ that stands the test of time. The quality of their argument is exceeded only by their ability to make it accessible to a general audience. This book is every ...

Great study source for the AP Test!
I read this book (and the other one, the one that goes up to the present) the week before the AP US History test and I got a 5! I didn't read anything else. This is a really good review of US History and offers just facts, no frills.

Jan Faull M.Ed.

Parenting Press, 2000

Good resource....lots of ideas and reminders.
This is a great tool to use in dealing with temper tantrums. There are several ideas and 'example' stories to learn from. While the advice leaves you saying 'oh yeah, that makes sense', it does work and is helpful. I am glad to have found this author and her web site is helpful as well. If you are fortunate enough to live in the Seattle area, you may attend her classes.
