"GREAT content, GREAT activities, GREAT explanations!" -Joyce Deer,
Math Teacher, North Pike High School, Summit, MS "A valuable
addition to the literature on the practical use of mathematics in
the real world. This book will contribute to the improvement of
monetary connections within secondary mathematics as well as
financial literacy in our country." -Edward C. Nolan, Mathematics
Department Chair, Albert Einstein High School, Kensington, MD Use
real-life money issues to raise students' mathematical and
financial literacy! Research has solidly established the importance
of teaching mathematics in contexts that capture student interest
and involvement. Weaving real-world financial issues into secondary
mathematics instruction, this highly practical book offers teachers
engaging ways to infuse personal money management into NCTM
standards-based math lessons. Using authentic material from daily
life, the authors illustrate instructional strategies that connect
required mathematical concepts with basic money matters, giving
students a solid understanding of financial realities essential to
successful everyday living. This resource meets the expanding
demands for equity and accountability and: Relates math to credit
cards, paying taxes, stocks & bonds, mortgages, buying a car,
and much more Expands teachers' knowledge of basic financial
concepts Provides suggestions for projects to extend the concepts
learned Includes a math locator, glossary of money terms,
comprehensive index, and summary of formulas This valuable guide
gives teachers, math coaches, and curriculum specialists the
resources they need to make math come alive in the classroom and to
develop financially savvy students.
