Synopsis

Is it possible to do math without using numbers? Absolutely! It encourages students to look beyond the numbers. To answer a problem without the numbers, students can't just pick a random operation. They have to really think about how to solve it. This book is a rewritten version of S.Y. Gillian's classic book Problems Without Figures. Inside you'll find some of her classic problems about farms and bricks with updated language for today's kids. There are also many brand new problems bringing in more about statistics, percentages, and the abundant options of modern life. True to the original text, there are plenty of tricky problems too! To solve a problem, you need the right information. The numberless approach encourages students to talk about their math.
