He is a member of the Authors Guild and the National Writers Association and currently teaches at Appleby School in Sportswood, New Jersey. She was recipient of the 1990-91 Governor's Teacher Recognition Program Award. The authors previously co-authored The Math Teacher's Bo
These tested projects stress cooperative learning, group sharing, and writing, and build skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, decision-making, and computation. Each project follows the same proven format, including instructions for the teacher, a Student Guide, and one or more reproducible datasheets and worksheets. To help find appropriate projects quickly, a special Skills Index identifies the skills emphasized in each project, and all materials are organized into 6 major sections: Math & Science Math & Social Math & Language Math & Art & Music Math & Sports & Recreation Math & Life Skills. A collection of 60 hands on investigations to help stude
Bernadette said Great Resource for Integrating Math and other Subjects. Hands-On Math Projects with Real-Life Applications offers many math projects classified for an integrated approach to math and other subjects. As a parent who is home schooling a teenager I have found the projects to be a helpful resource. Each project identifies the learning goal, math skills which will used, material needed and how to conduct the project. Although geared to math teachers in a school setting I have found it very helpful in the home school setting.. Comprehensive and useful The Muschla's book is an excellent resource for the Algebra II and Pre-Algebra classes I teach. The best part about this book is that the materials are all there (worksheets, instructions, etc.), and they can be easily adapted to the various high school mathematics levels of instruction. I will start a project during one class period, then allow students time at the end of class on subsequent days to complete it as a supplement to my lessons.. Many options I use this book for Pre-Algebra and Consumers Math. The book is broken up into other subjects while useing math. (Math and Science, Math and Social Studies, Math and Sports, etc.) A lot of it is data collection, observation, charts and tables. You can add more detail or take away as you think. I do love how it integrates writing into majority of the projects. Each project has a page or two for the teacher, followed by a page or two for the student. I have enjoyed having this s
