Download or read book Competitive Mathematics for Gifted Students Level 1 Combo written by Cleo Borac and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-14 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a combo volume that incorporates all four volumes for level 1. The interior of the 4 in 1 volume is always updated to contain the latest edition of the individual volumes. About "Competitive Mathematics for Gifted Students" This series provides practice materials and short theory reminders for students who aim to excel at problem solving. Material is introduced in a structured manner: each new concept is followed by a problem set that explores the content in detail. Each book ends with a problem set that reviews both concepts presented in the current volume and related topics from previous volumes. The series forms a learning continuum that explores strategies specific to competitive mathematics in depth and breadth. Full solutions explain both reasoning and execution. Often, several solutions are contrasted. The problem selection emphasizes comprehension, critical thinking, observation, and avoiding repetitive and mechanical procedures. Ready to participate in a math competition such as MOEMS, Math Kangaroo in USA, or Noetic Math? This series will open the doors to consistent performance. About Level 1 This level of the series is designed for students who know addition and subtraction with multi-digit numbers as well as simple multiplications of one-digit numbers. Some of the problems, however, involve advanced concepts and may be useful for older students.

Download or read book The Peak in the Middle written by Mark E. Saul and published by Lawrence Erlbaum Associates. This book was released on 2010 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good teaching is responsive to individual differences, tailoring instruction to meet the needs of individual learners. In gifted education, students need a curriculum that is differentiated (by level, complexity, breadth, and depth), developmentally appropriate, and conducted at a more rapid rate. This collection of essays from experts in the field addresses the particular needs educational institutions have in serving their gifted students. Topics include policy and philosophy; specific program models; supplemental materials and programs; knowledge and skills that teachers need in their work; international opportunities and possibilities; and equity. Many of the points raised are as valid for general education students as for gifted students. Many relate equally well to high school or elementary school. And many apply across the curriculum--not just to mathematics. This book contains nine chapters: (1) Philosophy and Policies to Guide Middle School Mathematics Instruction: Issues of Identification, Acceleration, and Grouping (Tamra Stambaugh and Camilla P. Benbow); (2) Program Models: Matching the Program to the Abilities, Needs, and Interests of Mathematically Talented Students (Ann Lupkowski-Shoplik); (3) Using Curriculum to Develop Mathematical Promise in the Middle Grades (M. Katherine Gavin and Linda Jensen Sheffield); (4) Preparing Teachers for Mathematically Talented Middle School Students (Carole Greenes, Dawn Teuscher, and Troy P. Regis); (5) Extracurricular Opportunities for Mathematically Gifted Middle School Students (Richard Rusczyk); (6) Articulation (Janet Lynne Tassell, Rebecca Ruth Stobaugh, Beth Duvall Fleming, and Chloe R. Harper); (7) Middle School Geometry: a Case Study (John Benson); (8) Equity (Max Warshauer, Terry McCabe, M. Alejandra Sorto, Sharon Strickland, Hiroko Warshauer, and Alex White); and (9) Inspiring and Developing Student Interest: Several Examples from Foreign Schools (Alexander Karp). A preface and afterword are also included.

Download or read book Enrichment Units in Math written by Judy Leimback and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-03 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Go beyond the regular curriculum with these units to challenge your more able primary grade math students. With their ease of use, clear instruction, and motivating topics, these are the perfect enrichment activities for the regular math curriculum. This book contains four units that are structured so that students can easily develop an understanding of the topics on their own. The four topics are: attribute pattern blocks, tangrams, sets and Venn diagrams, and ancient Egyptian numbers. Each unit provides sequential activities that allow students to work through these motivating topics, whether they are working by themselves, in a small group, or in a whole-class setting. The units lend themselves easily to a math center arrangement with each student having an individual folder and checklist to record his or her progress. While they were designed to provide added challenge for students who have mastered the regular curriculum, some of the units can be used as supplements for whole-class instruction. The emphasis in these units is on promoting thinking, developing perseverance, expanding students' view of mathematics, enjoying a challenge, and keeping math students actively involved and enthused about math. This book will help you provide students with opportunities to explore mathematical ideas in ways that promote their intellectual growth and expand their views of mathematics. This is one of a three-book series. For older students, use Enrichment Units in Math Book 2—permutations and combinations, tessellations, line drawings, and graphing; and Enrichment Units in Math Book 3—probability, topology, number characteristics, and magic squares. For other math units to extend the math curriculum and provide opportunities to work independently, see Math Extension UnitsBook 1 andBook 2. Grades 2-3

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the relationships between mathematical creativity and mathematical giftedness. It gathers the results of a literature review comprising all papers addressing mathematical creativity and giftedness presented at the International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME) conferences since 2000. How can mathematical creativity contribute to children’s balanced development? What are the characteristics of mathematical giftedness in early ages? What about these characteristics at university level? What teaching strategies can enhance creative learning? How can young children’s mathematical promise be preserved and cultivated, preparing them for a variety of professions? These are some of the questions addressed by this book. The book offers, among others: analyses of substantial learning environments that promote creativity in mathematics lessons; discussions of a variety of strategies for posing and solving problems; investigations of students’ progress throughout their schooling; and examinations of technological tools and virtual resources meant to enhance learning with understanding. Multiple perspectives in the interdisciplinary fields of mathematical creativity and giftedness are developed to offer a springboard for further research. The theoretical and empirical studies included in the book offer a valuable resource for researchers, as well as for teachers of gifted students in specialized or inclusive settings, at various levels of education.
