'This is a very interesting book and one that can only help our
battle to make algebra come alive and help our students see the
useful and interesting problems that algebra can help us to deal
with' - Peter Hall, Imberhorne School, East Grinstead Making
Algebra Come Alive! provides versatile enrichment exercises for
teaching a broad range of mathematical topics and applications.
Each activity is presented as a reproducible student investigation.
It is followed by guidelines and notes for the teacher. Each
activity is keyed to the National Council of Teachers of
Mathematics (NCTM) Standards, Revised. This link to the NCTM
standards allows teachers to facilitate linking classroom
activities to specific state and school district content standards.
First and foremost, the activities are meant to be motivational. As
much as possible, we want this book to achieve the goal of being
attractive to people who thought they didn't like mathematics. To
accomplish this, it is necessary for the activities to be quite
different from what students encounter in their basal
texts-different in both substance and form. This seems especially
critical; no matter how excellent a basal text is being used,
nearly every class experiences the "blahs." Unfortunately, this
sort of boredom is often well entrenched long before the teacher
and perhaps even the students are aware of it. Presenting
activities on a regular basis gives the variety and change of pace
needed to sustain interest in any subject.
