Making Math Meaningful
A 8th Grade Workbook for Teachers
In this last year before high school, the student's natural interest in mathematics is beginning to peak. Although this workbook will help to stengthen math skills, the real focus is on developing higher-level mathematical thinking. The eighth grader can get easily frustrated; yet working through frustration teaches determination and builds confidence. They need to be challenged, and the topics in this workbook do exactly that! Instead of the teacher giving all of the rules and laws to the students, the groups worksheets lead them to discover much of this for themselves.
The units in this workbook are: Number Bases, Pythagoream Theorem, Mensuration, Percents & growth, Proportions and Dimentional Analysis, Algebra, End-of-Year Review.
97 pages.
