Fraction Fun

For many young students, the mere mention of fractions brings on headache, tummyache, and confusion. But no longer! This simple, hands-on concept book is clear and concise. The simple definition of a fraction, that it is a part of something, introduces a pizza pie that is divided, studied, compared, and, of course, eaten. Weighing coins determines how many make one ounce, and what the fractional value of each coin is. The cartoon like illustrations are colorful, whimsical, and humorous; they also make the concepts clear. Without a fraction of a doubt, parents and teachers will find limitless possibilities in this book. This children's book is for kids reading levels ages 9-12. Leave us your comments.

10-Minute Critical Thinking Activities for Math

I bought this kids book so I could be kept up to date on my math skills. This book was an excellent choice for me. It has tons of problems in the following areas: Critical Thinking and Algebra, Logic and Critical Thinking, Number theory and Problem Solving, Sequences Patterns and Codes and Visual/Geometric Patterns. It starts off basic and gets more challenging. First you do work with patterns, then algebra, then some hard logic problems and onto problems involving thinking and counting (not simple 1,2,3 counting). I recommend this kids book to any adult who wants to "keep in touch" with their math skills. It is also good for a high school math class. This kids book is for children ages 12 and up.
