  22. Essential Algebra for Advanced High School Math and SAT

    Essential Algebra for Advanced High School Math and SAT

    SKU: 12371

    $36.99

    The Essential Algebra for Advanced High School and SAT is a 241-page math book in the Mathematical Reasoning series and is an ‘essential’ resource for building the foundation of ongoing excellence in mathematics. This book offers an in-depth approach to teaching math skills focusing on important algebraic concepts that are vital to a student’s success in advanced high school mathematics. This book is broken down into ten algebraic concepts:

    • Understanding Terms and Order of Operations
    • Understanding the Family of Real Numbers
    • Rationals and Irrationals
    • Working with Terms and Polynomials
    • Polynomial Division, Factoring, and Rational Expressions
    • Solving Equations and Inequalities
    • Ratio, Proportion, and Percent
    • How Algebra is Used in Geometry
    • Understanding Functions
    • Working With Quadratic Equations and Functions

    Algebra is essentially the language of all advanced mathematics courses. It is generalized arithmetic, so the rules that apply when we are working with number and fraction operations—including the knowledge of factors and multiples—also apply when we are working with algebra.

    Without this knowledge and these skills, students often struggle or even fail in advanced mathematics courses. Imagine a good high school student who sees a problem like 3•x•y•4 and hesitates to write 12xy because he or she is unsure of the rules that govern multiplication. Or they don't understand how to add 2x to 1/4y to combine it into one entire fraction. Or why –62 is different than (–6)2. It is easy to see that not having a strong understanding of the foundational rules of algebra can stop even the smartest students from succeeding in advanced high school math courses.

    The lessons within this book teach fundamental arithmetic principles that govern algebra so that students can apply them, as needed, in advanced mathematical courses and in life. The book begins with the definition of a "term" and the facts of when you can cancel and when you cannot. It discusses the importance of factors and multiples and integer rules. It teaches addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of fractions – not by doing the problems up and down like they are mostly done in elementary school, but by doing them sideways just like they are done later in algebra and in higher-level math. This helps make everything so much easier down the road!

    The explanations are clear and followed with basic step-by-step procedures to show students how to master and apply those fraction concepts, negative number operations, exponent rules, work with square roots, and doing real life percent problems with charts and tables, just like those on the SATs. Concepts are purposefully repeated in different settings, so students will keep re-applying what they learn throughout the book. The language is friendly to put students at ease and increase their confidence while learning concepts that are often confusing.

    This book reviews the necessary reading strategies needed to translate word problems, but it is not the primary focus of the book. The book Understanding Algegra I  (also part of the Mathematical Reasoning series) devotes large sections to many types of word problems and many useful strategies if deeper study of this topic is desired.

    In the last two chapters of the book, students are asked to apply the algebra they have just learned to an overview of problems in geometry. Also included is review of some important techniques that students frequently struggle with involving both linear and quadratic equations.

    This book also includes an appendix of topics used as a review, but also includes new information that can be considered enrichment for students who may want to learn more. Teaching support and answers are also included.

  23. My Nature Journal

    My Nature Journal

    SKU: 2933

    $10.00

    Ages 4-11, chronological age or skill level

    Savor small moments of wonder with your child, as he learns to appreciate the simple beauty of nature. Share delight in drawing and describing a solitary toad, a creeping caterpillar, or a crisp, yellow leaf. Visit a forest, a creek, or your own backyard.

    Create a keepsake, as you witness improvement in his attention to detail, writing skills, and knowledge. Help your student make essential connections between oral language and written language, even as you assist his ability to observe and enjoy the wonders of nature

    In My Nature Journal, you will introduce students to the natural sciences through purposeful nature study. Talk a walk. Find a patch of lichen, a beetle, or an ant hill, and allow the student time to draw everything he sees. Nudge his drawings with questions provided for you, or create your own to spark attention to detail. “What colors do you see?” “How many legs does the beetle have?” “What shape is the ant hill?”

    Each journal page provides a large font space for writing. He may write his own observations, or you can create simple copywork sentences from his spoken words. “He is crawling on the leaf!” or “He looks fuzzy.” Find another fact or two from the animal and plant classifications provided for you in My Nature Journal. “A caterpillar is an insect. Insect have six legs.” Record only complete sentences.

    When all sentences are recorded on the page, whether dictated, copied, or written, the teacher or student then reads the words aloud. In this manner, you will help the student create a delightful record of his own nature study while cultivating his powers of observation.

    Select the level of writing based on our student’s ability.

    Step 1 – Dictating and Scribing

    If the student does not yet write words or sentences, simply record his spoken words, as he observes and draws. Through questions such as those provided in the front of the journal, ask questions to evoke descriptions. If desired, the student and teacher may add another fact from the classifications in the journal, from a field guide, or elsewhere. The teacher writes in complete sentences directly into his journal. The teacher or student then reads the journal entry.

    Step 2 – Copywork

    If the student can form letters and words, simply elicit oral descriptions as described above. Then writes a sentence or two from the student’s own observations. The student and teacher may wish to add another fact or two, if space permits. The teacher writes the information in complete sentences. The student copies the sentences into his journal. The student or teacher reads the entry aloud upon completion.

    Step 3 – Writing

    If the student generates thoughts easily and writes sentences well, he may wish to write his own words into the journal. These may be prompted through discussion with questions from the front of journal for more vivid descriptions. The teacher gently corrects for capitalization, punctuation, and spelling as he writes. The student then reads his journal entry aloud.

  25. Ancient Israelites and Their Neighbors

    Ancient Israelites and Their Neighbors

    SKU: 0517

    $19.99

    An Activity Guide

    By Marian Broida

    Children can try their hand at re-creating ancient Israelite culture—along with the cultures of their neighbors, the Philistines and Phoenicians—in a way that will provide perspective on current events. The book covers a key period from the Israelites’ settlement in Canaan in 1200 B.C.E. to their return from exile in Babylonia in 538 B.C.E. This part of the Middle East—no larger than modern-day Michigan—was the birthplace of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. More than 35 projects include stomping grapes into juice, building a model Phoenician trading ship, making a Philistine headdress, and writing on a broken clay pot. Israelites', Phoenicians', and Philistines' writing and languages, the way they built their homes, the food they ate, the clothes they wore, and the work they did, and of course, their many interesting stories, are all explored.
