Grade 1 Math

Educational and fun

Got this for my grandson and he luvs it!! He likes math

My godson loved his Christmas present. He loves that the pen tells him when he's wrong and he loves when it turns Green! He's getting quicker with his subtraction and addition facts and his reading skills have improved. He's challenged consistently. Can't wait to buy the next grade level.

My daughter is nearly done with first grade, and she's behind in math. She can do just about all of book I and much of book II, and she only just started with the books today. I estimate her class was at this level at about mid-fall of grade 1. For my daughter, these are GREAT. The talking pen is building her confidence, and it has the extremely strong added value of taking me out of the practice time so it doesn't devolve into a battle. Also, she isn't trying random answers, because she doesn't want to hear the (extremely gentle) negative feedback. I will have to stay nearby, so that she doesn't skip subtraction. The pen rotates through a set of positive and negative responses, to reduce boredom, and lights up with red or green. I've also got an Ace pen (the dog one) to alternate once she gets bored with this one.

Good and highly recommended

Absolutely love these! My son was having the hardest time focusing and was interested in everything but school till I ordered these and made it into a competition. For every problem he gets right he gets a point, for every problem he gets wrong I get a point! We keep score on a sheet of paper. He wins every time and loves it!

My class enjoys playing with it. They love the sounds that ot makes when they get the answers correct. Also I like the learning aspect of the Hot dots.

Too easy. My daughter needed support for first grade basics more than halfway through the year. The first book is much too easy and she got through almost all of the second book herself easily (with the exception of telling time and money, which they haven’t learned). If you are looking for a good supplement there is a hot dots first grade 50 page math book that I found was more geared towards what they were working on and was more challenging. The only thing I don’t like about that one is it is a larger size and my daughter enjoys the little books. I would say if your child is ok with the basics and you ate looking to supplement, this is going to be too easy. Also, we found there are times when the pen would say that a wrong answer was correct.

I just got it delivered today and the pen doesn’t work not worth the money I spent on it

Es muy practico, aunque viene en ingles, son cosas fácil de comprender, a mi hijo le encanto

Kids happy with this purchase.
