The Verbal Math Lesson Book 1 by Michael Levin

Everyone thinks kids hate math. But the truth is, kids don't hate math--they hate worksheets Writing down equations takes fine motor skills that young children haven't yet developed, making the process of learning math difficult and tedious. Math done mentally, or verbal math, makes math fun. Children see math problems as a game and a challenge. In the second edition of this pioneering educational bestseller, handwriting is removed from math problems to help children cement fundamental mathematical skills so that they may solve problems without having to do any writing at all. Developed as a supplement to traditional math education, the lesson is completely comprehensive, step-by-step, and leaves no area undone.

The first book of the series introduces children to the basic concept of adding and subtracting, and works its way up to math problems involving numbers with double digits. The book is meant for children between the ages of 5 and 7.

"[T]he book helps a child understand the language of math and builds a firm foundation. A child relies on his own mind to solve problems and not on images, hash marks, or written equations. It builds confidence and it's fun! It is hard for a child to have to think about writing correctly and solving a problem. The method allows the child to enhance his knowledge of math in a focused manner." -- Families.com book review
