Math-a-Logic: Grades 4-8
by Dianne DrazeIf you thought math was all numbers, you're in for a surprise. The ability to reason logically is both a prerequisite for learning mathematics and a desired outcome of mathematics instruction. Mathematics provides an excellent context in which to make students aware of the logical structures they need to function successfully in any setting. Math-A-Logic is an award-winning text that successfully merges logical thinking with mathematical concepts and calculations. Eight areas of logic are introduced: patterns and sequences, analogies, deduction, inference, sets and Venn diagram, propositions and logical notation, syllogisms, and logical problem solving. Attractive, reproducible worksheets lead students through each topic, providing explanations, examples, and exercises to test their understanding. With mathematics as the vehicle for presenting and practicing the logical concept, students get practice in mathematical concepts and computations while building thinking skills. The end result is clearer thinking and enhanced problem-solving abilities. This unique approach is sure to be a favorite supplement to your regular math program. The attractive illustrations, clear instructions, solid content, and ease of use make this book a winner. This book is the winner of Learning Magazine's Teacher Choice award. Grades 4-8

Mathematical Connections: A Bridge to Algebra and Geometry
by Francis J. Gardella Patricia R. Fraze Joanne E. Meldon Marvin S. WeingardenMathematical Connections is a bridge that will take you from where you are in your study of mathematics to algebra and geometry. Since topics in mathematics are connected, this course will also lead you to data analysis and probability.

Mathematics Course 2 All-In-one Student Workbook Version A
by Prentice HallCourse 2 consists of a structured approach to a variety of topics such as ratios, percents, equations, inequalities, geometry, graphing and probability. Test Taking Strategies provide a guide to problem solving approaches that are necessary for success on standardized tests. Checkpoint Quizzes assess student understanding after every few lessons. Daily Guided Problem Solving in the text is supported by the Guided Problem Solving worksheet expanding the problem, guiding the student through the problem solving process and providing extra practice.
Mathematics Course 3
by Randall I. CharlesChapters 1-3 focus on integers, rational numbers and real numbers in order to set the stage for equations, inequalities and functions. Real-World applications to the more abstract algebraic concepts are found throughout the text. More than 5 Activity Labs per chapter ensure students receive the visual and special instruction necessary to conceptualize these abstract concepts and prepare them for advanced math courses.
Mathematics, Magic and Mystery
by Martin GardnerWhy do card tricks work? How can magicians do astonishing feats of mathematics mentally? Why do stage "mind-reading" tricks work? As a rule, we simply accept these tricks and "magic" without recognizing that they are really demonstrations of strict laws based on probability, sets, number theory, topology, and other branches of mathematics.This is the first book-length study of this fascinating branch of recreational mathematics. Written by one of the foremost experts on mathematical magic, it employs considerable historical data to summarize all previous work in this field. It is also a creative examination of laws and their exemplification, with scores of new tricks, insights, and demonstrations. Dozens of topological tricks are explained, and dozens of manipulation tricks are aligned with mathematical law.Nontechnical, detailed, and clear, this volume contains 115 sections discussing tricks with cards, dice, coins, etc.; topological tricks with handkerchiefs, cards, etc.; geometrical vanishing effects; demonstrations with pure numbers; and dozens of other topics. You will learn how a Moebius strip works and how a Curry square can "prove" that the whole is not equal to the sum of its parts.No skill at sleight of hand is needed to perform the more than 500 tricks described because mathematics guarantees their success. Detailed examination of laws and their application permits you to create your own problems and effects.
