Synopsis

Math Phonics™ is a comprehensive program using rules, patterns and memory techniques similar to those found in language arts phonics. This geometry book introduces basic terms and concepts with hands-on projects, wall charts, flash cards and math art pages. Unique visual aids and demonstrations are an added feature. The 26 worksheets and 22 features and activities are designed for grades 3-6. However, many of the pages can be used for younger students, and teachers at higher levels could use many of the memory tips and demonstration ideas with their students. The games, visual aids and manipulatives are designed to help students understand, learn, appreciate and enjoy geometry. The States of the Union word problems give real-life applications for geometric concepts. Ideas in the metric section are especially good for helping students (and adults) master this difficult area. This book gives students a strong foundation for understanding and appreciating geometry.!

The materials are ideal for the elementary classroom, tutoring, home schooling and adult education.
