Students are typically not given the opportunity to see the wondrous side of mathematics because it is often taught as all scales and no music. Help your students to: discover the power of mathematics as the danger of short-term loans is exposed in a dramatic fashion; investigate math mistakes in the news media and their potential consequences; learn the surprising answer to how much money a hybrid car will save its owner in reduced gasoline usage; understand how people lie with statistics; discover what math tells us about teenage drivers; see the power of math as it cuts through deception and flawed thinking to reveal the truth.

This book makes complex math concepts easy for students to learn and teachers to teach (even those whose math skills are a little rusty). The fun activities in these books teach difficult concepts in areas such as statistics, probability, algebra, physics, trigonometry, astronomy, and calculus. Loaded with exciting activities designed in an easy-to-understand format using cartoons and drawings to illustrate motivational word problems. Challenge Math and Primary Grade Challenge Math are perfect tools for introducing complex mathematics skills to gifted learners. Both books are designed for use by students individually or in small groups. Children will be amazed at the problems they can solve and will love the connections between math and science. Each chapter’s questions are broken down into three levels: Level 1 (challenging), Level 2 (very challenging), and Einstein level (extremely challenging).

REAL WORLD ALGEBRA
Understanding the Power of Mathematics

By Edward Zaccaro

Just as English can be translated into other languages, word problems can be “translated” into the language of mathematics and applied to solve real-world problems. Real World Algebra explains this process in an easy to understand format using cartoons and drawings. This book can be used by a single student working independently or by an entire classroom of students. Progressing from easy to challenging, the problems in this book help students master the application of algebraic skills, as well as understand the value of math in the real world

THE 10 THINGS ALL FUTURE MATHEMATICIANS & SCIENTISTS MUST KNOW
(But are Rarely Taught)

By Edward Zaccaro

Mathematicians and scientists have been closely tied to many famous disasters. The Challenger explosion, the failure of the Mars Orbiter and the Kansas City Hyatt Regency walkway collapse all involved thinking errors. This book presents the ten things our future mathematicians and scientists must know to prevent these kinds of tragedies from occurring. Over 50 stories are indlued that show children the strong connections between mathematics and science and the real world.
