Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Kids love to move. But how do we harness all that kinetic energy effectively for math learning? In Math on the Move, Malke Rosenfeld shows how pairing math concepts and whole body movement creates opportunities for students to make sense of math in entirely new ways. Malke shares her experience creating dynamic learning environments by: exploring the use of the body as a thinking tool, highlighting mathematical ideas that are usefully explored with a moving body, providing a range of entry points for learning to facilitate a moving math classroom. ..."--Publisher description.

Download or read book Math to Build On written by Anna-Maria Crum and published by Benchmark Education Company. This book was released on 2011 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how many years it takes to build a skyscraper? Or how many millions of blocks it took to form the pyramids of Egypt? Since ancient times, people have used the principles of mathematics to help them build remarkable structures. Indeed, it would have been impossible for the ancient Egyptians to envision and ultimately build the pyramids without the help of good mathematical knowledge. The same is true for designers today who build our modern skyscrapers!
Download or read book Concrete Mathematics written by Ronald L. Graham and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 1994-02-28 with total page 811 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the mathematics that supports advanced computer programming and the analysis of algorithms. The primary aim of its well-known authors is to provide a solid and relevant base of mathematical skills - the skills needed to solve complex problems, to evaluate horrendous sums, and to discover subtle patterns in data. It is an indispensable text and reference not only for computer scientists - the authors themselves rely heavily on it! - but for serious users of mathematics in virtually every discipline. Concrete Mathematics is a blending of CONtinuous and disCRETE mathematics. "More concretely," the authors explain, "it is the controlled manipulation of mathematical formulas, using a collection of techniques for solving problems." The subject matter is primarily an expansion of the Mathematical Preliminaries section in Knuth's classic Art of Computer Programming, but the style of presentation is more leisurely, and individual topics are covered more deeply. Several new topics have been added, and the most significant ideas have been traced to their historical roots. The book includes more than 500 exercises, divided into six categories. Complete answers are provided for all exercises, except research problems, making the book particularly valuable for self-study. Major topics include: Sums Recurrences Integer functions Elementary number theory Binomial coefficients Generating functions Discrete probability Asymptotic methods This second edition includes important new material about mechanical summation. In response to the widespread use of the first edition as a reference book, the bibliography and index have also been expanded, and additional nontrivial improvements can be found on almost every page. Readers will appreciate the informal style of Concrete Mathematics. Particularly enjoyable are the marginal graffiti contributed by students who have taken courses based on this material. The authors want to convey not only the importance of the techniques presented, but some of the fun in learning and using them.
