The images in this book are in color. For a less-expensive grayscale paperback version, see ISBN 9781680923254. Prealgebra 2e is designed to meet scope and sequence requirements for a one-semester prealgebra course. The text introduces the fundamental concepts of algebra while addressing the needs of students with diverse backgrounds and learning styles. Each topic builds upon previously developed material to demonstrate the cohesiveness and structure of mathematics. Students who are taking basic mathematics and prealgebra classes in college present a unique set of challenges. Many students in these classes have been unsuccessful in their prior math classes. They may think they know some math, but their core knowledge is full of holes. Furthermore, these students need to learn much more than the course content. They need to learn study skills, time management, and how to deal with math anxiety. Some students lack basic reading and arithmetic skills. The organization of Prealgebra makes it easy to adapt the book to suit a variety of course syllabi.

"Ehrlich’s insightful self-help guide will resonate with Christians wishing to streamline an overstuffed life."—Publishers Weekly Logically, we all know our purpose in life is not wrapped up in accumulating possessions, wealth, power, and prestige—Jesus is very clear about that—but society tells us otherwise. Christian Minimalism attempts to cut through our assumptions and society’s lies about what life should look like and invites readers into a life that Jesus calls us to live: one lived intentionally, free of physical, spiritual, and emotional clutter. Written by a woman who simplified her own life and practices these principles daily, this book gives readers a fresh perspective on how to live out God’s grace for us in new and exciting ways and live out our faith in a way that is deeply satisfying.

Subtraction within 0 - 10 deals with various concepts related to basic subtraction. Most of the problems in the workbook only use numbers up to 10, but a few include numbers between 10 and 20. The concept of subtraction is easy to illustrate with the idea of "taking away". If your child does not yet know the word "minus", it is a good idea to introduce it first orally. Simply use blocks, rocks, or other concrete objects. For example, show the child eight blocks, and take away three blocks. Then use both kinds of wordings: "Eight blocks, take away three blocks, leaves five blocks. Eight blocksminus three blocksequals five blocks." Play with the blocks or other concrete objects until the child can use the words "minus" and "equals" in his/her own speech. This will make it much easier to introduce the actual written symbols. The next step would be to abandon concrete objects and use semi-concrete illustrations or pictures. That is where this workbook starts with the lesson Subtraction Is "Taking Away". At this stage, the child can still figure out the subtraction problems by simply counting how many objects are left. So, how does the student learn how to subtract without actually counting concrete objects or pictures? As a transitional strategy, we will study counting down: the student solves 9 − 3, for example, by counting down three steps from nine: eight, seven, six. So the answer is six. However, the final goal is to learn to use the addition facts to find the answer to subtraction problems. For example, once the student knows that 5 + 5 = 10, then this fact is used to solve 10 − 5 = 5. For this purpose, the student must learn well the connection between addition and subtraction. This is why this book concentrates heavily on the connection between addition and subtraction with several lessons, ending up with the concept of fact families. Besides "taking away", subtraction is also used for these two situations: Finding how much more one number is than another. Note that no one "takes away" anything in this situation. For example, if you have 3 dollars and you need 6 dollars, how many more dollars do you need? The student is instructed to write a "how many more"addition problem for this, which looks like this: 3 + ___ = 6. We also call these problems "missing addend" problems. It can be solved by remembering the addition fact 3 + 3 = 6, or by subtracting 6 − 3 = 3. Two (or more) parts (of something) make up a whole. If you know the whole and one of its parts, you can figure out the other part.For example, if there are 10 white and red flowers, and seven of them are white, how many are red? We know the "parts" (the red and white flowers) add up to 10, so we write an addition 7 + __ = 10. Again, this can be solved by subtracting, or simply by knowing the addition fact 7 + 3 = 10. These two situations are dealt with in several lessons in the workbook and are found in various word problems throughout the book. Besides the exercises in the lessons, I encourage you to use games that are explained on the next page. Children like to play, and using the addition and subtraction facts in a game gives them fun and education in the same "package".

Once your child has learned to count up to 10 and can recognise and w rite numbers 1 to 10, they can take the next step - adding and subtracti ng. In this book, children will practise counting and writing num bers 1 to 10, and learn to add and subtract objects up to a total of 10. Using groups of pictures, they will learn how different numbers go toge ther to make a total amount. In Excel Maths Early Skills : Add and Take Away to 10, your child will: revise counting and writing numbers 1 to 10 add and subtract objects up to a t otal of 10

Fluency in math doesn’t just happen! It is a well-planned journey. In this book, you’ll find practical strategies and activities for teaching your elementary students basic addition and subtraction facts. The authors lay out the basic framework for building math fluency using a cycle of engagement (concrete, pictorial, abstract) and provide a multitude of examples illustrating the strategies in action. You’ll learn how to: help students to model their thinking with a variety of tools; keep students engaged through games, poems, songs, and technology; assess student development to facilitate active and continuous learning; implement distributed practices throughout the year; boost parental involvement so that students remain encouraged even as material becomes more complex. A final chapter devoted to action plans will help you put these strategies into practice in your classroom right away. Most importantly, you’ll open the door to deep and lasting math fluency.
