This workbook will help your child develop an understanding of subtracting the numbers one through five from whole numbers up to 20. By using this book, children will be able to understand the concept of subtraction by repeatedly tracing and reciting numbers both forwards and backwards and then gradually shifting to subtracting the numbers one through five. Kumon workbooks are based on the 'Kumon Method', an educational philosophy that aims at unlocking the full learning potential of each individual child.

Most grade-school workbooks try to cover the full range of topics in one workbook, and as a result do not dedicate enough pages to important mathematical concepts. Kumon's research has found, however, that children find learning easier when they tackle one skill set at a time. With these findings in mind, we designed our newest line of workbooks to help children with one particular mathematical skill set per book.

This workbook is designed to help your child improve fine motor control and hand-eye coordination through cutting and pasting together three-dimensional paper toys. Simple contours and large margins for pasting make it easy for children to successfully complete each project. Turning two-dimensional illustrations into three-dimensional toys that they can immediately play with helps your child discover the joy of creating things for themselves.

This book gives children the opportunity to build a firm foundation for pencil-control skills by tracing lines through basic mazes following clear directional indicators. The exercises have many three-dimensional illustrations, such as towns, streets, and parks, which engage children’s curiosity. This amusing practice will also help children acquire the ability to concentrate, a crucial study skill for the emerging student.
