This book is full of tips, tricks, and techniques to help you teach Math to your elementary school students, These are things that I've either picked up in professional development classes, learned from other teachers, found in books or on the internet, or came up with on my own, all over the course of 25 years as an elementary school teacher. When I shared a few of these techniques to one of my colleagues because I was pleased with my students' progress that resulted from their use, she told me that I should write a book to share them with other teachers.
This book contains such techniques - Gummy Bear Math - Math Magic - Multiplication Times (including the Weirdness of the 9s) - Division Delights - Fun Facts And more
So give the tips, tricks, and techniques in this book a try. You're sure to enjoy them as much as your students.
