Forget boring math lessons and dreaded drill sheets.

This fun, colorful 448-page book uses engaging lessons with easy-to-follow explanations, examples, and charts to make sixth grade mathematical concepts easy to understand.

It can be used as a textbook or a comprehensive workbook with your textbook to teach the math skills and concepts that students are expected to know in sixth grade–and several concepts normally taught in seventh grade.

This book emphasizes problem-solving and computation to build for success in higher-level math and math assessments.

Every lesson is followed with a variety of fun, colorful activities to ensure concept mastery.

The lessons and activities spiral slowly, allowing students to become comfortable with concepts, but also challenging them to continue building their problem-solving skills.

This book teaches more than mathematical concepts; it teaches mathematical reasoning, so students learn to devise different strategies to solve a wide variety of math problems.

It is written to the standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.

Recommended for grades 6 and up.

Mathematics and science can be thought of as a search for patterns and structure.

This 88-page book provides rich and diverse collections of pattern problems for students in Grades 3-4 to explore, investigate, discover, and create.

The five different types of pattern problems found in this book are: Pattern Predictor, Equality Explorer, Sequence Sleuth, Number Ninja, and Function Finder.

There are optional hints and detailed solutions.

From a developmental perspective, the ability to recognize a pattern signals the transition from concrete to abstract thinking.

So having students explore pattern problems helps sensitize them to the discovery process that provides a foundation for authentic learning and abstraction.

These activities are independent and self-contained, but tend to build on one another and get gradually more sophisticated. 

Although this book's patterns appropriate for Grades 3-4, experiences with these activities may vary widely depending upon readiness for abstraction.

There are many ways to solve and explain a pattern problem, and the solutions provided are not intended to be unique. In all situations, and at whatever pace and facility, the transition from concrete to abstract thinking is worthwhile.

Recommended for grades 3 and 4.

Understanding analogies and the ability to reason analogically (reasoning used to identify, evaluate, and solve an analogy) are important problem-solving skills.

Problem-solving is an essential part of mathematical development.

Analogies teach children to break problems down into their component parts, making it easier to recognize familiar formats that enable students to produce solutions.

The math analogies in this book ask your child to draw and verbalize their answers.

The drawings develop fine motor skills and the verbalization develops communication skills.

The analogies in this book are designed around the grade-appropriate standards identified by the National Council of Teaching Mathematics.

Recommended for grades 4 and up.
