Product Description
Once thought of as a topic taught only in high school, algebra is now one of the top priorities in elementary and middle school. This exciting three-volume series helps K–8 teachers meet the challenge of making algebra an integral part of mathematics instruction by building on the connections between algebra, number sense, and geometry. Topics covered in the classroom-tested lessons include patterns, functions, variables, and coordinate graphs. To guide teachers, each chapter has an overview with a brief description and the objectives of the lesson, background on the mathematics used, vocabulary and prerequisite skills essential to the activities, materials required, and samples of student work. Lessons for Algebraic Thinking, Grades K–2 By Leyani vonRotz and Marilyn Burns. Recognizing that children's understanding of number is the main focus of math instruction in the primary grades, these lessons build on arithmetic learning and skills to develop children's algebraic thinking. 280 pages. Lessons for Algebraic Thinking, Grades 3–5 By Maryann Wickett, Katherine Kharas, and Marilyn Burns. These lessons actively engage students in creating, recognizing, and extending patterns; present patterns with tables, variables, and graphs; and introduce students to solving equations and plotting points. 336 pages. Lessons for Algebraic Thinking, Grades 6–8 By Ann Lawrence and Charlie Hennessey. Students use multiple representations, including models, drawings, tables, graphs, words, and symbols, to make connections between arithmetic and algebra. 280 pages.

Math is hard! September 12, 2004

Our math teechur Miss Pippi Von Rottenpants made us do our math from this book. I don't get it. I thought math had numbers. This math has a bunch of letters. I'm totally confused by it. So A is worth 1 and X is worth 24? X + Y = 49 right? What if you're from Russia and you have like backwards R's and your E's look like N's?
Letters DO NOT belong in math!
