| MATH MOSAICS Math Series Description:
Tired of workbooks with boring drills? Then the Mosaic Series are the math books for you! This unusually fun series of workbooks mixes solving math equations with other skills (map skills, graphing skills, and puzzles) to provide greater complexity for kids that love visuals and need a "little more" as they practice math skills they have just about mastered!
ALGEBRA ANTICS Math Workbook Description:
ALGEBRA ANTICS is the algebra math book in the Math Mosaic Series and it is *NEW* to the series! Kids solve the algebra problems, and use the answers to locate ordered pairs on a grid. The grid can be either a single quadrant, or four quadrants. Kids connect the dots of the answers on the graph and uncover a picture of geometric or a fun picture of an object!
A variety of algebra concepts are addressed by individual puzzles:
Simplify numeric expressions, using order of operations
Find value of expressions after substituting numbers for variables
Simplifying expressions (adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing signed numbers)
Solving equations (adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing to balance the sides)
Solve proportions
Find values of expressions involving absolute value, powers, and square roots
Use formulas to solve problems
Find the slope when given the equation of a line
Solve inequalities
Your kids will love these algebra exercises! There are 30 puzzle pages with a variety of pictures and figures to uncover that will match your kids' interests. Solutions are provided at the back of the book. The book is reproducible for multiple kids and/or multiple years of classroom fun!

A NOTE FROM LAURI:
Visual kids will love this book! Building a visual with each answer is an especially great way for visual kids to learn and practice algebra. Curiosity to see the geometrics and pictures makes it so much more interesting!
Combines number and graphing skills for greater complexity. Bright and gifted kids are generally able to understand greater complexity, and this book helps build more complex thinking by combining numeric, logic, and graphing skills.
A great algebra supplement. This book is a great supplementary tool for teachers and parents alike. Teachers can provide this as an alternate classroom or homework assignment to supplement kids that have already mastered skills being taught to others. Parents can use this book to supplement at home as a challenging extension to school.
Math Mosaics series is GREAT. I LOVE the entire Math Mosaics Series, and this book is no exception. A great way to practice algebra! |
