"I teach in an inner city school ..This CD raps, teaches strategies...sings the answer and then the 2nd time it sings the question and leaves students a wait time and a pause to give the answer. I love the stategies, different original songs. SUPER AWESOME for kids in the year 2007!!"
Easy on the Parent's Ear, Fun for the Kids

"This product was recommended to me by a teacher who said it increased test scores for her class. My kids love to listen to this CD. It is now the preferred music selection in the car. The songs all have great rhythms and lyrics so the tape is easy to listen to over and over. We have been listening to this CD daily for three weeks and it is still fresh. Even I have a favorite - the five's song. The older Muliplication Rap tape by Twin Sisters should be retired because it is monotonous and boring. This tape is a hands down winner over any tape we tried!"
Disappointed

"This CD was so highly rated that I couldn't wait to receive it. When it came, I was extremely disappointed. My niece (of whom I have custody) is struggling with her math facts for school, a necessary promotion standard, and we really need help, but she hates the songs, and quite frankly, so do I. I thought they'd be fun and catchy, but they are cheesey and tedious. The "Hip-Hop" claim is quite questionable. . . . We also purchased Schoolhouse Rock, and it is by far a better investment. Unfortunately, when buying a cd online, it is almost impossible to preview the songs, and so my recommendation is to check out your local music store first to make sure that the music is a match for your child."
