JUMP at Home Grade 3

by John Mighton

John Mighton's JUMP program is changing the way math is taught, and his powerful math workbooks give children the tools they need to master this crucial subject. The key is a step-by-step teaching method that isolates and describes concepts so clearly that anyone can understand them: students build on their successes, becoming proficient at solving problems with confidence and enthusiasm. Now, parents and caregivers can bring the JUMP program home. These workbooks follow the current student worksheets used by JUMP tutors and classroom teachers, including: an introduction for parents and caregivers that clearly explains the thinking behind the program and provides hours of activities, worksheets carefully designed to enable children to move from one success to the next, a glossary of math terms, and a selected answer key.

JUMP math is pedagogically sound and ensures success in all students...They find it motivating, beg to do more math, and are challenged without being frustrated. * Teacher, Vancouver *
Students who were doing very poorly in math now love the subject and eagerly await their next session. Their teachers often comment on the confidence the students have gained and the improvement they have shown in their daily work - all because of JUMP. * Principal, Toronto *
When I was in grades 1, 2, 3, and 4, I hated math a lot because it's so hard. But when John Mighton came and taught math to my class, I suddenly thought math was so fun and easy. * Student, Toronto *
