This second edition of the popular math teaching resource book
Math Stories for Problem Solving Success offers updated
true-to-life situations designed to motivate teenagers to use math
skills for solving everyday problems. The book features intriguing
short stories followed by sets of problems related to the stories
that are correlated to the standards of the National Council of
Teachers of Mathematics.
Each of the easy-to-read stories is followed by three
increasingly difficult groups of problem sets. This makes it simple
for teachers to select the appropriate problem set for students of
different abilities and at different grade levels. To further
enhance student involvement, the stories feature recurring
characters and can be used either sequentially or out of order. The
problems in the book cover many basic math topics, including
decimals, fractions, and percents; measurement; geometry; data,
statistics, and probability; algebra; and problem solving.
In addition to having all the answers, an Answer Key at the end
of the book offers explanations and background information about
the problems that can be helpful to both teachers and
students.
Math Stories for Problem Solving Success will help you show
students that math is something they are already using every
day.
