| Middle School Math by Design This exciting publication for middle schools has been praised by teachers who have seen it! It follows the same format of our many other “design” books, which use the “Search n Shade” technique and have been so popular with both students and teachers. There are 40 activity pages. Each activity has 12 to 15 exercises. Squares or circles containing the answer are shaded according to the shading code for the exercise. The answer for each exercise is shown one or more times on the grid. When completed, a pleasing design emerges. Students are excited about this connection between math and art. Teachers are given permission to reproduce the pages for classroom use. A solution key is provided. Some topics covered in MSM by Design: • Order of operations • Word problems using whole numbers only • Selecting a prime number from a list of whole numbers • Writing a composite number as a product of prime factors • Finding the least common multiple of two numbers expressed as a product of prime factors • Adding or subtracting mixed numbers • Adding or subtracting denominate numbers • Finding a missing term to make two equivalent fractions • Reading lengths to scale • Adding and subtracting with decimals • Multiplying and dividing with decimals • Word problems involving percents • Word problems involving fractions, decimals, and percents • Mental computation • Finding the next number in a given sequence • Adding signed numbers • Subtracting signed numbers • Multiplying signed numbers • Dividing signed numbers • Algebraic word problems • Counting rectangles, squares, triangles, and trapezoids • Probability • Plus many more! |
