Young learners learn best when activities last five to ten minutes, before they drift off-task. The 10 Minutes a Day series takes this research to heart, providing quick math exercises for children — perfect for those time-to-fill moments at home, and based on one of the best and most effective learning strategies: little and often. Each book includes a ten-minute timer, beat the clock exercises, and easily photocopied pages, as well as tips, guidance, and answers for parents. In order to align with the Common Core State Standards, in 10 Minutes a Day: Math Fifth Grade children will learn to write and interpret numerical expressions, classify two-dimensional figures based on their properties, convert like measurement units, graph points on a coordinate plane and more to build math skills.
