It's Alive! (eBook, PDF)

The Funniest Math Book Ever!

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

It's Alive! The Funniest Math Book Ever! combines the best of It's Alive! with the best of It's Alive (and Kicking!), plus 40 all new problems, to produce what is without a doubt the funniest math book ever! Teachers will especially appreciate the new edition's inclusion of a chart linking each problem with specific Common Core Standards, and another chart linking each standard to specific problems.

Marya took the kind of gooey, slimy, weird and disgusting science facts that kids love, and aided by her son and his best friend-both in middle school at the time-turned them into hilarious and engaging math problems. Simple in design but valuable in content, this book will thrill and excite your middle schooler by replacing typical, run-of-the-mill math problems with the stuff they're really thinking about, like:

• How many unknown-to-science microbes live in your belly button?
• What percent of refrigerators contain n.l.r.m.i.t. (no longer recognizable moldy icky things)?
• How many times is gas passed in the average 60-minute math class?
• How many gigabytes does your brain hold?

Math is fun when we get to figure the cost of a meal at the AfterMath Restaurant, with foods like Macaroni and Sneeze, Deep Fried Lint and Hot Sludge Sundae. Even the comprehensive answer key, including step-bystep detail and problem-solving strategies, is hilarious! Math and science combine with laughter in It's Alive! The Funniest Math Book Ever! Math class will never be the same!

Autorenporträt

Marya Washington Tyler, M.Ed., enjoyed teaching middle school students in Wisconsin, Idaho, Washington State and Alaska for 18 wonderful years. She continues to serve teachers by writing math books such as Real Life Math Mysteries, It's Alive!, It's Alive (and Kicking!) and On the Job Math Mysteries, all of which have been best sellers in the field of gifted education.

David Washington, now Partner Group Manager at Microsoft, with his best friend Asa, helped conceptualize the idea for the first edition and develop the problems while still in middle school.

Asa Kleiman, now a freelance illustrator, was the genius behind most of the humor you'll find in It's Alive! The Funniest Math Book Ever!
