On Core Mathematics Algebra 1 Bundle. Common Core Standards are the new standards that are being adopted by all states and address standards for both content and practice. This math series is written to supplement your math curriculum to ensure that your student meets the standards for math. The Common Core Standards for practice cover 8 different areas – make sense of problems and persevere in solving them, reason abstractly and quantitatively, construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others, model with mathematics, use appropriate tools strategically, attend to precision, look for and make use of structure, and look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. The content standards for K-6 are counting & cardinality, operations & algebraic thinking, number & operations in base 10, measurement & data, geometry, number & operations in fractions, ratios & proportional relationships, number systems, expressions & equations, and statistics & probability. Each grade-level bundle includes a Student Workbook and a Teacher's Edition. The Student Workbook is black and white and each lesson is two pages in length. Each lesson begins with an explanation and model of the concept and is followed by practice for that concept. Students learn to be reflective thinkers through follow-up questions. The Reflect questions challenge students to really think about the mathematics they have just encountered and to share their understanding. Special features near the end of the units focus on problem-solving and help students apply the concepts and skills they have learned to real-world situations. Included Teacher's Edition contains lesson background for all Common Core topics, and offers teacher support for all lessons, background for each lesson, questioning strategies, and suggestions for differentiation. Common Core Standards for each lesson are noted, small format student pages are included with answers along with objectives, essential questions, vocabulary, materials list, and prerequisites to that particular lesson or topic.

The research is in: students make sense of mathematical problems best when they work in small groups, with hands-on experiences that echo real-world situations. That’s why Mathematics Station Activities for Common Core State Standards have proven so popular—middle school students learn to apply mathematics, employ problem-solving strategies, communicate with one another, and reason through to the answers while working together. Contains multiple sets of activities for each of the five strands: Number System; Expressions and Equations; Functions; Geometry; and Statistics and Probability. The activities consist of four different stations where students work in small groups, moving from station to station once their activities are complete. Learn More

Time after time, experience shows that learning by manipulating physical objects with one’s own hands — learning by doing things firsthand, rather than being told about them or reading about them in a book — is extremely effective. Thames & Kosmos has a long history of incorporating this principle into science education. Now, we are bringing this experience to the Kids First Math line, a series of nine hands-on kits with activity cards or lesson guides designed to demonstrate and teach concepts in mathematics, as well as other skills such as logical thinking, problem solving, and creative thinking.

Kids First Math: Stacking Block Abacus Math Kit with Activity Cards

+ A row of 5 vertical rods and 75 colorful cubes that stack on the rods

+ Used to develop skills in counting, sorting, digits, addition, subtraction, and comparing

+ Visual and hands-on math learning

+ Durable plastic for long-term use and easy cleaning

+ Includes 5 bases, 5 rods, 75 cubes, 49 number cards, 5 activity cards, plastic storage bin

Workbooks provide further practice for students to complete independently in conjunction with textbook exercises. This essential component reinforces learning to create a solid foundation in elementary math. Features & Components:

• Each textbook chapter corresponds to workbook exercises, serving as a learning extension.
• Math at Home activities (G1-2) in tear-out sheets provide opportunities for family involvement in the learning process.
• Review exercises at the end of each unit facilitate evaluation and consolidation of concepts covered in the preceding units.

Note: Two workbooks (A and B) for each grade correspond to the two halves of the school year. Soft cover.

Challenging Word Problems is a great source of challenging material for advanced math students. It may also be used for students of mixed abilities with more guidance. Although originally written to complement Primary Mathematics, it can go with any math curriculum as long as students have the necessary computation skills. The material allows students to practice explaining their reasoning and demonstrate problem-solving strategies, including using manipulatives. Select problems for a daily challenge or for discussion, or allow competent students to attempt the problems independently. Solutions are provided at the back, however, a specific strategy is not required, and alternate methods are quite possible to arrive at the answer.
