A wonderful alternative to written drills for the kinesthetic child, but exciting for all children. Use these anywhere - no pencil or paper required! Buy 2 sets and have a “wrap-off”! How about a “relay-wrap” at your next support group meeting? Each set contains 10 boards (120 problems), colorful wrapping strings, and instructions. As a plus, the left-to-right wrapping motion may reinforce the tracking skills vital to reading! Wrap-Ups can be bought individually, or in an introductory 5-pack kit. All introductory kits include an addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and fractions Wrap-Up. Kits may also include four Wrap-Up Rap cassettes or CDs, with one for each topic except fractions. Cassettes and CDs help guide the listener through the “random” wrapping process for each board by singing math facts, with and without answers. CD tracks may be easier for children to navigate, rather than trying to find the right spot on a tape. Cassettes and CDs can be purchased separately and used with or without a Wrap-Up.

Workbook and Wrap-Up sets are now available for all Wrap-Ups except fractions. They can be used as supplements to a text or as a mini-curriculum. Each 32-page workbook, titled 10 Days to (fill in an operation here) Mastery, contains ten days worth of lesson plans and worksheets. Lesson plans are detailed and easy to follow. All sets can be purchased with or without a cassette or CD.

Also available for purchase are the 10 Days to Multiplication Mastery Book and Workbook, which are different from the multiplication workbook in the Workbook and Wrap-Up sets. This book takes a commutative approach to learning multiplication, and it includes more worksheets and more thorough teaching instructions per lesson. Suggestions for extended activities and games are also provided. 125 pgs.

This product really works...in 10 days!! After more than a year of helping my 8 year old learn his multiplication facts, he finally has them down in only 10 days. You do need a Wrap-Up to use the book as instructed. We did not do the entire work for each day all at once, but broke it up into 3 to 5 sessions each day that took between 3 and 7 minutes. If your child can time themselves they can do the book independently. My son is so proud of himself now!
