(Grade 3) Mathematical Reasoning™ helps students devise strategies to solve a wide variety of math problems. This book emphasizes problem-solving and computation to build the math reasoning skills necessary for success in higher-level math and math assessments. This book is written to the standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. The Level D book is a complete curriculum for the third grade level. 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. Answers are included in the back of the book.

Forget boring math lessons and dreaded drill sheets. This fun, colorful 384-page book that is geared for 4th graders uses engaging lessons with easy-to-follow explanations, examples, and charts to make fourth grade mathematical concepts easy to understand. It can be used as a textbook or a comprehensive workbook with your textbook to teach the math skills and concepts that students are expected to know in fourth grade--and several concepts normally taught in fifth grade. This book emphasizes problem-solving and computation to build for success in higher-level math and math assessments.Every lesson is followed with a variety of fun, colorful activities to ensure concept mastery. The lessons and activities spiral slowly, allowing students to become comfortable with concepts, but also challenging them to continue building their problem-solving skills. This book teaches more than mathematical concepts; it teaches mathematical reasoning, so students learn to devise different strategies to solve a wide variety of math problems. It is written to the standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.

Then Luca, the boy every girl wants to know, singles her out. Corinne realises that you don't have to be a loner just because you don't run with the herd - and that friendship can come from the most unexpected quarters.This combination of romance, suspense and adventure will appeal to a wide age group. This is what reviewers of the hardback version have said:"I’ve read a lot of young adult fiction and Carolyn Henderson’s “Beside Me” has one of the best teenage girl ‘voices’ I’ve read.""This book is brilliant, even for someone like me, whose knowledge of horses could barely fill the back of a postage stamp! I was surprised at how easily I was able to understand it, and be taken into the imaginative, and in some places unpredictable storyline.""...this is a book for teenage girls, but as a 61-yr-old, I can truly say that it's such a ripping good yarn, that it wouldn't matter the age, or even whether the reader is a horsewoman, it holds the attention from start to finish!""A beautifully crafted and haunting story - pitch perfect for its target audience."
