Newly adapted to align with the Mathematics Framework for California Public Schools, the program aims to equip students with sound concept development, critical thinking and efficient problem-solving skills. Features of the series: * Mathematical concepts are introduced in the opening pages and taught to mastery through specific learning tasks that allow for immediate assessment and consolidation. * The modeling method enables students to visualize and solve mathematical problems quickly and efficiently. * The Concrete > Pictorial > Abstract approach enables students to encounter math in a meaningful way and translate mathematical skills from the concrete to the abstract. * The pencil icon provides quick and easy reference from the Textbook to the relevant Workbook pages. The direct correlation of the Workbook to the Textbook facilitates focused review and evaluation. * New mathematical concepts are introduced throughout a spiral progression that builds on concepts already taught and mastered. * Metacognition is employed as a strategy for learners to monitor their thinking processes in problem solving. Speech and thought bubbles provide guidance through the thought processes, making even the most challenging problems accessible to students. * Color patch is used to invite active student participation and to facilitate lively discussion about the mathematical concepts taught. * Reviews in the Workbooks for 1A-1B and regular reviews in the Textbooks and Workbooks for 2A-5B provide consolidation of concepts learned. * The glossary effectively combines pictorial representation with simple mathematical definitions to provide a comprehensive reference guide for students.

The purpose of the Home Instructor's Guide is to provide parents with sufficient material to fully teach the Primary Mathematics curriculum to a depth that may not be achieved by simply following the textbook alone. Part of the success of any math curriculum comes from interacting with and guiding the student so that he or she can develop an understanding of the concepts with the clarity and depth needed to apply and extend these concepts to new situations and be able develop problem solving strategies that come with actual problem solving rather than just going through a given series of steps or following an example of a similar problem. With sufficient understanding of the concepts and the purpose of the tasks and problems in the textbook, the parent/teacher will be more able to understand and deal with any misconceptions or lack of real comprehension early on before they become evident later through difficulties with topics that build on previously laid foundations. The parent/teacher will also be more prepared to initiate or pursue discussions on various approaches to solving a problem or understanding a concept and to use the textbook effectively as a teaching tool. The guide contains: * notes to the instructor with some mathematical background for each section in the textbook * objectives for each chapter * teaching activities using manipulatives where appropriate * reinforcement and enrichment activities * answers and solutions to corresponding textbook pages and learning tasks for the lesson, to be discussed with the student * answers to the corresponding workbook exercises and solutions to many of the problems * mental math pages.

Word Explorer is an engaging collection of diverse word puzzles designed to ignite students' passion for active learning and the discovery of patterns. Drawing inspiration from the companion mathematics series Pattern Explorer, this collection recreates the thrill of problem-solving and pattern exploration through the use of words and letters. From classic puzzles like word scrambles, rebus puzzles, and word searches to less traditional, reimagined formats, these puzzles supply a wide variety of problem-solving opportunities in language arts to foster the type of critical thinking skills often associated with mathematical patterns. Get ready to play and have fun working with letters and words!

To maximize diversity and variation, the puzzles in this 112-page book appear in a rotating order for a total of 64 puzzle sets divided into the following themes:

• Missing Letters
• Letter Rearrangement
• Word Combinations
• Vocabulary
• Path Search
• Code-Breaking/Logic
• Visual

The activities are self-contained and independent, gradually increasing in sophistication. While we encourage starting with earlier sets, students have the freedom to choose their own path.

Suitable for students in grades 6-8, these puzzles cater to different comfort levels with word exploration. Accompanied by hints and solutions, the activities offer support for younger students while challenging older ones to uncover patterns with agility. Regardless of the pace, our playful exploration of words and letters is a rewarding experience.

We encourage students to pursue these pattern problems with a sense of adventure and perseverance. Some pattern discoveries may come quickly, while others may require patience and determination. Regardless, the pattern exploration offers rich and authentic experiences to see words and letters as an opportunity to discover and have fun.

Understanding Geometry Successful completion of this middle school geometry course will virtually guarantee a students's success in high school geometry. Although the geometric concepts of perimeter, area, and voume are taught piecemeal from elementary school through middle school, too many students enter high school without the skills and knowledge to succeed in high school geometry. Unfortunately, middle school students get very little education on the properties of parallelograms and the tools needed to succeed at doing geometric proofs. The result is a high number of students who struggle with high school geometry and standardized testing. Geometry is a fundamental subject in high school standardized testing. This book teaches students an understanding of the reasoning behind the properites taught in geometry-instead of merely asking them to memorize them. Students are also taught the basics of geometric proofs and coordinate geometry in a way middle school students can understand. A glossary of terms that every student in high school must master is included. This book can be used as a classroom textbook in grades 7, 8, and 9 (usually over a two-year period). In many high schools this book can also be used as a one year high school geometry course. This book follows the National Math Standards in mathematics but it goes further.

Primary Mathematics Standards Edition Tests is a series of assessment books. This series is aligned with the standards adopted by the California State Board of Education and follows the topical arrangement in the Primary Mathematics Standards Edition Textbooks. Each chapter comprises Test A and Test B, and each unit concludes with similarly structured Cumulative Tests. Test A consists of free response questions and assesses students' grasp of mathematical concepts while developing problem-solving skills. Test B is optional and consists of multiple-choice questions aimed at testing students' comprehension of key concepts. As such, it may be used as a retest if teachers perceive the need. In Cumulative Tests A and B, questions from earlier units are incorporated into each test. These tests focus on review and consolidation through the integration of concepts and strands. Primary Mathematics Standards Edition Tests aim to provide teachers with a set of structured assessment tools for the systematic evaluation of students' learning so as to better understand their individual needs. Above extract from Primary Mathematics Standards Edition Tests series (reproduced with the permission of the publishers). Pages in the Tests books are perforated for easy removal.
