This book offers classroom-tested activities designed to make even the most reluctant learners crazy about math. Appealing to everyone from sports fans to readers, future fashion designers to budding musicians, the activities presented in this book offer ways to develop a deep-rooted love and appreciation of math in every student. Teachers are shown how to introduce students to increasingly complex math concepts by keeping things based in the concrete and visual. Using these strategies and reproducibles will enable teachers to: easily differentiate within strategies; assess knowledge and skill quickly and painlessly; help students focus; build automaticity; cement learning in long-term memory; and establish keen number sense.
