Both books you need to teach First Grade Math with Confidence, in one convenient bundle: First Grade Math with Confidence Instructor Guide and First Grade Math with Confidence Student Workbook.

Math educator Kate Snow gives parents the tools they need to teach math with confidence. This scripted, open-and-go program leads parents and instructors step-by-step through teaching all the concepts first-graders need to master:

• counting, comparing, and writing numbers to 100
• addition and subtraction facts to 20
• addition and subtraction word problems
• beginning place-value and mental math
• shapes, money, time, and measurement

Short, lively lessons will hold a child’s attention by incorporating movement, games, and real-life situations. Straightforward, colorful worksheets give students practice with new concepts and review previously-learned material. Snow makes math fun by including optional enrichment lessons, with suggestions for wonderful math picture books to enjoy together and application activities to make math come alive.

Beyond just telling parents what to do, First Grade Math with Confidence also helps them understand why the lessons are designed the way they are, giving them the knowledge and confidence to help their children learn.

Using First Grade Math with Confidence will allow parents to build a strong math foundation for their children.

In this engaging text, Michael Weiss offers an advanced view of the secondary mathematics curriculum through the prism of theory, analysis, and history, aiming to take an intellectually and mathematically mature perspective on the content normally taught in high school mathematics courses. Rather than a secondary mathematics textbook, Weiss presents here a textbook about the secondary mathematics curriculum, written for mathematics educators and mathematicians and presenting a long-overdue modern-day integration of the disparate topics and methods of secondary mathematics into a coherent mathematical theory. Areas covered include: Polynomials and polynomial functions; Geometry, graphs, and symmetry; Abstract algebra, linear algebra, and solving equations; Exponential and logarithmic functions; Complex numbers; The historical development of the secondary mathematics curriculum. Written using precise definitions and proofs throughout on a foundation of advanced content knowledge, Weiss offers a compelling and timely investigation into the secondary mathematics curriculum, relevant for preservice secondary teachers as well as graduate students and scholars in both mathematics and mathematics education.

Can be used as a learning tool in conjunction with our other maths materials. This is useful preparatory material for children who will eventually be sitting for the 11+ grammar school or independent school exams. Provides practice for GL Assessment, CEM and all other styles of mathematical tests. During an intense learning phase children also improve their maths skills through a testing process, provided that the main emphasis is focused on acquiring techniques from our workbooks. The tests are not exclusively book specific but they are progressive and give extra practice in most of the techniques covered in the Maths workbooks.

In the book, the relationship between affect and modeling is discussed because, as educational psychologists have suggested for decades, affect directly influences achievement. Moreover, given the importance of mathematical modeling and the applications to high level mathematics, it provides the field of mathematics psychology with insight regarding affect, in relation to mathematical modeling. By doing so it helps determine the degree to which understanding of mathematics and understanding affect in mathematical modeling episodes may have a direct effect on cognition.

Algebra is the language that must be mastered for any course that uses math because it is the gateway for entry into any science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) discipline. This book fosters mastery of critical math and algebraic concepts and skills essential to all of the STEM disciplines and some of the social sciences. This book is written by practitioners whose primary teaching subject is not math but who use math extensively in their courses in STEM disciplines, social science statistics, and their own research. Moreover, in the writing of this book, the authors have used the teaching principles of anchoring, overlearning, pruning the course to its essentials, and using simple and familiar language in word problems.
