In line with the latest NCTM guidelines, this invaluable teacher's aid develops basic and advanced math skills through an effective combination of concrete exercises (manipulatives), pictorial models and cooperative learning experiences. For easy use, this handy resource is organized into the following eight sections, each covering concepts from a different area of mathematics.
