| 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!
DECIMAL DESTINATIONS Math Workbook Description:
DECIMAL DESTINATIONS is the decimals math book in the Math Mosaic Series and it is *NEW* to the series! Kids solve the decimal problems and use place values (the tenths place, the hundredths place, and so on) from the answers to locate ordered pairs on a grid. Each problem has a color associated with it. After finding the ordered pair, kids color it in with the appropriate color. There is lots of variety in the decimal problems:
Naming decimals
Writing decimals from the written names
Ordering decimals by size
Round decimals
Adding & subtracting decimals
Multiplying & dividing decimals
Changing fractions to decimals and vice versa
Comparing decimals with fractions
Changing percents to decimals
Changing percents to decimals and multiplying
Your kids will love these decimal exercises! As they solve each problem, they find the ordered pair on the grid and color it with the appropriate color from each problem, and uncover an animal name in the process. Finding the animal name in each puzzle provides incentive to focus and finish! Adding graphing skills to the task makes it all more interesting than just plain worksheets!
There are 30 puzzle pages with a variety of animal names to match to your kids' interests, solutions are provided, and 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 decimals. Curiosity to see the animal names makes it all just so much more interesting to do!
Combines math and spatial 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 both decimals and graphing skills.
A great supplement for home, school or homeschool. 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 an extension of what is provided in school.
I LOVE the entire mosaic series of math books. This book is no exception. A great way to practice decimals and place values! |
