I did the Pet Store book for Math in 7th Grade. I really enjoyed learning math with it. I looked forward to math (which isn’t normal for me). You really feel like a store owner. It helped me learn business skills. It took the math I was learning and put it into context of real life. I love animals and I got to “own” a pet store!

My middle daughter did Pet Store math as a 6th grader and greatly enjoyed it. I was discussing math curriculum choices with our next daughter and she remembered how fun and how much her sister talked about her pet store! LOL I am here to purchase it again and debating the ebook version because I am almost certain our youngest daughter will want to do it as well. Thank you for such a fun and engaging way to do math.

I did this with my 2nd grader, 5th grader, and 9th grader. We all had so much fun!!! I used it as a supplement to their math curriculums. They are all looking forward to doing the bookstore next year.
After printing it I added monthly dividers and had them spiral bound. Each child named their pet store and designed their covers.

My son just loves the business math pet shop! We took a break from traditional textbook math for awhile as we transition into SCM. It has been a great fit. He is eager to do his math and often asks if he can work on his store math.
