High-interest activities use appealing art to encourage students to have fun while learning. Reproducible activities include ratio, proportion, and percent; time, money, and measurement, and a whole lot more. Well-paced activities gradually become more difficult as students progress. Includes over 100 reproducible pages, as well as answer pages where needed.

PopCo tells the story of Alice Butler–a subversively smart girl in the commercial-soaked world who grows from recluse orphan to burgeoning vigilante, buttressed by mystery, codes, math, and the sense her grandparents gave her that she could change the world.

Math Hooks 1, Grades K-2: More Than 50 Games an Dactivities to Hook Kids on Math

All they need is… Brooke Dawson: The courage to try out for the cheerleading squad.which is the closest to gymnastics I can get. Plus a new best friend who’s actually a girl, no offense to Trevor. And more time near Brett – even if that means hanging out in math class. Trevor Stevenson: The opportunity to be the second star of the basketball team, which I’d take instantly. A chance with Sophia. And making friends basketball star Brett wouldn’t hurt either. Sophia Garrison: A new cheerleader – as squad captain, it’s my responsibility to find one. A real best friend who isn’t shallow. And maybe Trevor to protect me from that wannabe Daphne. Brett Evans: A replacement for the basketball team. A new star – after me, obviously. More attention from Brooke – the perfect someone to distract me from ex-second-star Jackson. But what is it that these Saffrondale High juniors really need to survive the jealousy, the hatred, and all the drama? To meet one another.

This revised and updated manual prepares education students for a major part of the PRAXIS complex of teacher qualification tests. The test’s title is an acronym for Liberal Arts and Science Test/Assessment of Teacher Skills-Written, New York State Teacher Certification Examinations. This manual presents an overview of the test and follows up with separate chapters on Reading, Writing, Math, History and Social Sciences, Science, Visual and Performing Arts, and Teaching Skills. Practice tests with explained answers are also presented. They include model tests for LAST I, ATS-WI, LAST II, and ATS-WII.

This truly unique new title should appeal to both mathematicians and mathematics educators. It should also find a small market among professional and reference book buyers: mathematical professionals with interest in travel, art, architecture. The title is intended for math students who are interested in art, or art students with an interest (or requirement) in mathematics, or professionals with interest in mathematics and art. Geometry concepts are introduced by analyzing well known buildings and works of art. The book is packaged with an access code which allows the reader into a protected site, which will contain most of the fine art from the book in full color as well as teaching resources. The text appeals both to mathematicians and to artists and will generally be used in courses that bridge the two subjects.

A uniquely accessible text on environmental modeling designed for both students and industry personnelbrbrPollutant fate and modeling are becoming increasingly important in both regulatory and scientific areas. However,the complexity of the software and models often act as an inhibitor to the advancement of water quality science.brbrA Basic Introduction to Pollutant Fate and Transport fills the need for a basic instructional tool for students and environmental professionals who lack the rigorous mathematical background necessary to derive the governing fate and transport equations. Taking a refreshingly simple approach to the subject that requires only a basic knowledge of algebra and first-year college chemistry, the book presents and integrates all of the aspects of fate and transport, including chemistry, modeling, risk assessment, and relevant environmental legislation; approaching each topic first conceptually before introducing the math necessary to model it.brbrThe first half of the book is dedicated to the chemistry and physics behind the fate and transport models, while the second half teaches and reinforces the logical concepts underlying fate and transport modeling. This better prepares students for support jobs in the environmental arena surrounding chemical industry and Superfund sites.brbrContributing to the book’s ease of use are:br* An extremely user-friendly software program, Fate(r), which uses basic models to predict the fate and transport of pollutants in lakes, rivers, groundwater, and atmospheric systemsbr* The use of canned models to evaluate the importance of model parameters and sensitivity analysisbr* A wealth of easy-to-understand examples and problemsbr* A chapter on environmental legislation in the United States and Europebr* A set of lab exercises, as well as a downloadable set of teaching aidsbrbrA much-needed basic text for contemporary hydrology or environmental chemistry courses and support courses fo@RMp£× ¾Û€
