A guide for grown-ups

A math workbook for 4th and 5th graders where every page of practice has a reason: training a robot.

Who it suits

It is made for kids aged about 9 to 11 who can do the math but find worksheets boring. The math matches 4th and 5th grade work (multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, data, angles), and a skills chart for grown-ups shows which skills each mission practices.

How kids use it

Each mission opens with a short comic, then a one-page Big Idea, then practice, then a Boss Puzzle. One mission a week fits well alongside school: the comic and Big Idea on day one, a page of practice on most days, and the Boss Puzzle on the weekend.

What they learn about AI

Kids find out, without a screen, how computers learn from examples: why labels matter, how a decision tree sorts things, why a chatbot guesses the next word, and why unfair data gives unfair answers. The book explains them in plain words.

For grown-ups

Next: Robot Brain Puzzles, a logic mystery with the same characters.
