John Mighton's revolutionary JUMP at Home: Grade 5 workbook, now available as a PDF for the first time for at-home learning.
"John Mighton's JUMP program has demonstrated powerfully that, with the right instruction, no one need be left behind in math." - New York Times
John Mighton's innovative JUMP (Junior Undiscovered Math Prodigies) Math program is changing the way math is taught. With these workbooks, parents and caregivers can bring the JUMP program home to keep children learning.
The key to the enormous success of the program is a step-by-step teaching method that isolates and describes concepts so clearly that children can not only understand them, but also build up great confidence in themselves and their ability.
This workbook includes an introduction that clearly explains the thinking behind the program and follows the carefully designed worksheets used by JUMP tutors and classroom teachers.
Royalties from the sales of the JUMP workbooks are donated to the JUMP organization.

Reviews
I ordered the JUMP books...They showed me how to teach fractions to my son in a logical step-by-step process. I would not have been able to explain it in such an easy manner.
JUMP explains math in a way I understand.
JUMP math is brilliant! It works! Kids and adults working with it LOVE it!
JUMP math is more than just the workbooks - it's a philosophy that any child can be successful in math.
JUMP math is pedagogically sound and ensures success in all students...They find it motivating, beg to do more math, and are challenged without being frustrated.
Students who were doing very poorly in math now love the subject and eagerly await their next session. Their teachers often comment on the confidence the students have gained and the improvement they have shown in their daily work - all because of JUMP.
When I was in grades 1, 2, 3, and 4, I hated math a lot because it's so hard. But when John Mighton came and taught math to my class, I suddenly thought math was so fun and easy.
