Description
Category Description for Math For The Real World Series

How many times have your children asked you, "Why do I have to know this, I'm never going to use this math again?" This series of readers shows how math is used in the real world, and why it is helpful to understand math functions and when to apply them. Measure the difference in the Gokstad Ship and a smaller long ship (you'll be amazed). Set the pace in a poem using poetic meter, and draw the horizon and vanishing point in a picture. Apply ratios, decimals, fractions, and percentages to the understanding of the stock market or apply different concepts of fractions to music. Translate miles using expanded notation while globe trotting, and compare geometric shapes and tangrams. Math is everywhere, and sometimes not easily realized. Help your children learn and apply math concepts while visiting the world around them. ~ Donna
