Ready-to-Use Activities Based on Real-Life Situations, Grades 6-12
This second edition of the popular math teaching resource bookMath Stories for Problem Solving Success offers updated
true-to-life situations designed to motivate teenagers to use math
skills for solving everyday problems. The book features intriguing
short stories followed by sets of problems related to the stories
that are correlated to the standards of the National Council of
Teachers of Mathematics.
Each of the easy-to-read stories is followed by three increasingly
difficult groups of problem sets. This makes it simple for teachers
to select the appropriate problem set for students of different
abilities and at different grade levels. To further enhance student
involvement, the stories feature recurring characters and can be
used either sequentially or out of order. The problems in the book
cover many basic math topics, including decimals, fractions, and
percents; measurement; geometry; data, statistics, and probability;
algebra; and problem solving.
In addition to having all the answers, an Answer Key at the end of
the book offers explanations and background information about the
problems that can be helpful to both teachers and students.
Math Stories for Problem Solving Success will help you show
students that math is something they are already using every day.
