Some of the great features you’ll find inside are:
 
Tic-Tac-Toe
A twist on this classic game helps students develop a solid understanding of factors, prime numbers, and composite numbers.
 
Dueling Denominators
Students gain practice determining the lowest common denominator between fractions and then adding them.
 
Simply Simplify
Multiplying fractions can be easier if you simplify the fractions first, and students reinforce these skills by identifying numbers with common factors.
 
Fitting In
Measuring the length of a book, CD case, and DVD case to determine how many will fit on a shelf gives students confidence in measuring objects in centimeters and finding an answer measured to hundredths.
 
Fine Lines
Students practice recognizing points, lines, and rays by looking for pairs of lines in a picture and determining which are parallel, perpendicular, or intersecting.
