Mathematical Reasoning helps your
child devise strategies to solve a wide
variety of math problems. These books
emphasize problem solving and computation
to build the math reasoning skills
necessary for success in higher level
math and math assessments. All books are
written to the standards of the National
Council of Teachers of Mathematics.
Methods
These highly effective activities take
students far beyond drill-and-practice by
using step-by-step, discussion-based
problem solving to develop a conceptual
bridge between computation and the
reasoning required for upper-level math.
Activities and units spiral slowly,
allowing students to become comfortable
with concepts but also challenging them
to continue building their math skills.
Parent/Teacher Answer Guides
Includes concept overviews, answers, and
focus questions that lead students to
think mathematically as they verbalize
the steps of working through concrete and
abstract processes.
Useful as preparation resources for the
following assessments:
Stanford Achievement Tests (SAT)
Washington Assessment of Student Learning (WASL)
Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS)
Metropolitan Achievement Test (MAT8)
Conneticut Mastery Test (CTPIII)
Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS)

Sample Feedback from customers:
The
Beginning Math book is
outstanding! It is so colorful and engaging, it goes nice and
slow for my 3 year old and my special needs
6 year old. Love it!
"We
use this book…several times a week. [My] children love to figure
out the problems. Many of the problems are similar to those
found on standardized and I.Q. tests." -Ellen, Crossville,
TN
"[Mathematical Reasoning includes] counting and sequencing,
geometry, arithmetic, measurement, comparing and ordering
numbers, and tables and graphs. In turn, these topics are broken
down into subtopics, such as Estimating Lengths or Sums Using
Coins. You can thus open the table of contents and zip to a
series of problems using a particular skill.
"What it all boils down to is a big book of 282 pages that you
can use to practice virtually every elementary math skill. Even
topics like symmetry, of which you see very little in typical
math texts, are covered." -Mary Pride, The Big Book of
Home Learning
