Description

Math Words 1 is a selection of number words and number words used in conjunction with each other, that were chosen to promote effective communication and understanding of mathematics.  The compilation presents and defines the math words, in as uncomplicated manner as possible, and emphasizes a visual interpretation.   Simple illustrations or examples and brief definitions convey the use of the words and are suitable for use with students in grade three or higher.  The words can be used for remediation with older students who struggle with advanced math concepts because of gaps in their prerequisite foundation or used just for review. The relatedness of words within a group should be reflected on regularly.

The ebook is not a workbook.  A series of videos are presented to illustrate mathematical meanings of words.  Consider Math Words 1as a contemporary 3 Rs: reference, review and remediate, using whole numbers.  The author acknowledges the existence of many words that are used in other math domains, but focuses on classifying, ordering, comparing, and using basic operations.  Fractions and decimals words are not included in Math Words 1. Their usage is planned for Math Words 2. 

Tips on navigating through interactive ebook have been included.
