This workbook helps your child subtract three-digit numbers with confidence. Children will learn to regroup (borrow) when subtracting, which equips them with the tools to subtract three-digit numbers. Vertical subtraction is included along with patterning and sequencing activities, so children gain a fundamental understanding of subtraction. Topics Covered in this Book: Horizontal subtraction review Vertical form subtraction Regrouping (borrowing) Three-digit minus two-digit subtraction Early three- & four-digit subtraction Addition & subtraction of three two-digit numbers Patterns & sequencing
Great practice if your child needs to focus on subtraction. What I like about Kumon workbooks is they focus on mastery of one thing. Practice makes perfect!
Definitely worth it, though not self contained...

Summary: A great resource to help teach your kids subtraction, but it's strictly a book of exercises, drills, etc. No replacement for one on one teaching. We have our first grader working on this - she does one page each night along with her regular homework. The first dozen or so pages were subtraction review. Then it starts to get tougher. For example, 43-17 = 26 where you have to carry the tens. She was having some trouble, but after slowly walking her through a few problems she picked it up right away. In terms of skill level it's fairly well correlated to what the public schools target as the grade level outcomes - this is clearly a year advanced of what her school is teaching at first grade level, but a half year head start can't be bad and it certainly wasn't beyond her capabilities. The repetitive nature of the exercises in this book really helps. We highly recommend it! If you've found this review helpful or have questions/comments, please let us know!

This is not a 'teaching tool', but an excellent workbook for practice. We go back to it periodically for review exercises.
