Book Description
For children who have graduated from MATH FABLES, MATH FABLES TOO will help kids learn to count and, more important, lay the groundwork for addition. When children learn to group numbers at an early age, everything else -- place value, arithmatic, problem-solving -- flows naturally. These animal fables will also encourage kids to become more interested in science by building on their natural fascination with animals of the oceans, jungles, deserts, lakes, and backyards. Math and science -- a winning combination!

Book Description
Teaching K-12 math becomes an easier task when everyoneunderstands the language, symbolism, and representation of mathconcepts Published in partnership with SEDL, The Problem with Math IsEnglish illustrates how students often understand fundamentalmathematical concepts at a superficial level. Written to inspire?aha? moments, this book enables teachers to help students identifyand comprehend the nuances and true meaning of math concepts byexploring them through the lenses of language and symbolism,delving into such essential topics as multiplication, division,fractions, place value, proportional reasoning, graphs, slope,order of operations, and the distributive property. Offers a new way to approach teaching math content in a waythat will improve how all students, and especially English languagelearners, understand math Emphasizes major attributes of conceptual understanding inmathematics, including simple yet deep definitions of key terms,connections among key topics, and insightful interpretation This important new book fills a gap in math education byillustrating how a deeper knowledge of math concepts can bedeveloped in all students through a focus on language andsymbolism.

Book Description
A new and unique way of understanding the translation of concepts and natural language into mathematical expressions Transforming a body of text into corresponding mathematical expressions and models is traditionally viewed and taught as a mathematical problem; it is also a task that most find difficult. The Language of Mathematics: Utilizing Math in Practice reveals a new way to view this process—not as a mathematical problem, but as a translation, or language, problem. By presenting the language of mathematics explicitly and systematically, this book helps readers to learn mathematics¿and improve their ability to apply mathematics more efficiently and effectively to practical problems in their own work. Using parts of speech to identify variables and functions in a mathematical model is a new approach, as is the insight that examining aspects of grammar is highly useful when formulating a corresponding mathematical model. This book identifies the basic elements of the language of mathematics, such as values, variables, and functions, while presenting the grammatical rules for combining them into expressions and other structures. The author describes and defines different notational forms for expressions, and also identifies the relationships between parts of speech and other grammatical elements in English and components of expressions in the language of mathematics. Extensive examples are used throughout that cover a wide range of real-world problems and feature diagrams and tables to facilitate understanding. The Language of Mathematics is a thought-provoking book of interest for readers who would like to learn more about the linguistic nature and aspects of mathematical notation. The book also serves as a valuable supplement for engineers, technicians, managers, and consultants who would like to improve their ability to apply mathematics effectively, systematically, and efficiently to practical problems.

Book Description
This modern classic celebrates the tradition of tamales and family bonding at Christmas. Christmas Eve started out so perfectly for Maria. Snow had fallen and the streets glittered. Maria's favorite cousins were coming over and she got to help make the tamales for Christmas dinner. It was almost too good to be true when her mother left the kitchen for a moment and Maria got to try on her beautiful diamond ring . . . This is the story of a treasure thought to be lost in a batch of tamales; of a desperate and funny attempt by Maria and her cousins to eat their way out of trouble; and the warm way a family pulls together to make it a perfect Christmas after all. Also available in Spanish as ¡Qué montón de tamales!

Book Description
In Teaching Struggling Students in Mathematics, Too Many Grades of D or F, Bill Hanlon provides examples and recommends highly effective and practical instructional and assessment strategies that classroom teachers can immediately implement and that school administrators can readily observe. These high yield strategies build on accepted practices and directly address the needs of struggling students. His no nonsense, common sense approach assists classroom teachers in organizing their instruction by connecting preparation and instruction to student notes, homework, test preparation, and assessments so students study more effectively. This results in increased student performance. Bill also emphasizes the importance of student-teacher relationships and the implementing a success-on-success model. His emphasis on making students more comfortable in their knowledge, understanding, and application of math is demonstrated repeatedly with examples of how to introduce new concepts and skills by linking them to previously learned math and outside experiences. These linkages allow teachers another opportunity to review and reinforce skills or address student deficiencies. Teaching Struggling Students in Mathematics will help your student succeed in math.
