domino addition

I liked this book because it can teach little kids addition. So thay know how to do pluses. It has a great ending on it. This book goes all the way to twelve. A lot of kids would realy like this book. Maybe all the little kids on earth would realy like this book a lot.

great idea!

Using dominoes is a great tool for teaching young children how to add. Perfect for 4-5 year olds....this book was too basic for my first grader. The only problem is you're limited to combinations up to 6. For example, you are not able to make 10 using 7 plus 3. All combinations need to be learned (obviously!) and this cannot be done with this method. It's still a fun and interesting way for young children to learn the basics.

Domino Addition

An excellent book! My 5 year old has improved dramatically thanks to this wonderful book on addition. The use of Dominos is such a clever idea. We use our own set of Dominos to practice and my son loves it.

exellent for emerging mathematicians

I have just borrowed this book from a library and my four year old loves it. I had no idea, till today, that he can actually understand that 2+2=4 and that also 3+1=4. But today everything seemed so easy and so fun. We have seen quite a few "counting" books and this is so far the best of them. Another one I can reccomend is "My first number book" by Marie Heinst
