Written for elementary school teachers (and presumably teachers in training), this textbook addresses numbers and operations in the mathematics curriculum of grades K-6 (as well as some topics that may be more appropriate for grades 7 and 8, such as rational numbers, the Euclidean Algorithm, and the conversion of a fraction to a decimal). It contains material intended to aid teachers in answering questions from students, which can frequently require knowledge of the subject beyond the minimal level. The subject is therefore mathematically developed in a comprehensive and systematic manner that reflects the recent emphasis on mathematical coherence as an aid to student learning.

Hardback. Condizione: Good. This is a textbook for pre-service elementary school teachers and for current teachers who are taking professional development courses. By emphasizing the precision of mathematics, the exposition achieves a logical and coherent account of school mathematics at the appropriate level for the readership. Wu provides a comprehensive treatment of all the standard topics about numbers in the school mathematics curriculum: whole numbers, fractions, and rational numbers. Assuming no previous knowledge of mathematics, the presentation develops the basic facts about numbers from the beginning and thoroughly covers the subject matter for grades K through 7. Every single assertion is established in the context of elementary school mathematics in a manner that is completely consistent with the basic requirements of mathematics. While it is a textbook for pre-service elementary teachers, it is also a reference book that school teachers can refer to for explanations of well-known but hitherto unexplained facts. For example, the sometimes-puzzling concepts of percent, ratio, and rate are each given a treatment that is down to earth and devoid of mysticism. The fact that a negative times a negative is a positive is explained in a leisurely and comprehensible fashion. Codice articolo CIN0821852604G
