Now if you were asked to define mathematics, you
might describe it as a subject that you try to teach to disinterested students
in the hopes that they will take note of the fact that it is fractions and not
fractures that are part of the whole. It was simply beyond your
comprehension that at a time in your life when your pancreas should be at peace
with itself, you would be struggling to prove to thirty-two students that it is
virtually impossible to convert dollars into inches. To make the struggle
easier, we've come up with the following math materials. Basically, all of
our math materials are for the older student who is having difficulty.
They are sequenced and repetitive. We do not promise that the students
will be excited and motivated. We feel that the your students should go to
the video arcade for entertainment and to school for an education. So, here's
what we have to offer in the area of math materials...
MATH REFERENCE FOR MIDDLE GRADES
reproducibles ...$18.00
This new book is a great reference for
anyone needing basic information and examples of the most common topics covered
in middle school math. Units cover decimals; pre-algebra; fractions and
mixed numbers; ratio, proportion, and percents, integers, geometry and
measurement and more. The nine units are divided into several lessons
covering one or two concepts. The first part of each lesson is a
step-by-step guide with examples of how to solve problems. In the last
section students practice and apply what they've learned. Includes
glossary and CD ROM with extra practice problems. Correlated with NCTM
standards.
