Our class set is already in, and won't be sharing with another student, so take care of your book. Bring a cover, or use a paper bag, but we need to make sure they are are kept in top shape for this school year. We'll be checking into their online resources, and seeing what we can use.
Put up by the Utah State University, this website is a collection of Java applets that simulate math manipulatives, with standards-based activities for mathematics from k-12. So handy is this website, that I've included it in many activities and lessons that students can access by computer. This site's activities encourage students to think about mathematics in a visual way, as well as learning how to solve many types of problems, and learn to "think mathematically."
Author Guillermo Mendieta has created an invaluable resource for teaching and learning mathematics. In Pictorial Mathematics, key mathematical concepts become clear through his visual instruction. Pictorial Mathematics provides the perfect bridge between the abstract and the concrete. It helps the learner focus on developing meaning, connections, and a deeper conceptual understanding of key mathematical concepts through resources such as:
• More than 1,000 engaging visual exercises. • Powerful and engaging models for the development of conceptual understanding of place value, the four operations, fractions, percents, ratios, integers, algebraic expressions, geometry and many other key concepts in elementary and middle school mathematics. • Energizing tasks—whether working in small groups, large classrooms, or individually. • Master guides so you can create your own pictorial problems. A comprehensive resource that connects with the visual learner in all of us,
Pictorial Mathematics is an invaluable addition to any math classroom or student library.
