Description
For a math teacher, The Fraction Solution is pure inspiration, a perfect textbook for gaining a full understanding of fractions. Bruce Silton’s book is the product of a math tutor who has accurately and completely mastered the art of teaching the fundamentals of the fraction.
A lot of kids get lost studying fractions. Many never recover from their fraction confusions. Look at any high school algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, or calculus textbook. Nearly every page contains fractions. Many pages contain ONLY fractions. The truth is that a student either understands fractions or he fails to understand math beyond whole numbers. This book will provide the solution.
Mr. Silton has found the simplicity — the bottom rung of the fraction ladder. He has detailed that bottom rung with immense care, expressed the basic concepts in their simplest form, arranged them in their correct sequence for rapid learning, and then worked up from that point. There are no missing “lower steps” that would cause students to lose their way. This book safely places a student’s feet on the first rungs to climb the math ladder easily.
Every page reflects the author’s 21years of experience, caring, skill, and knowledge of this vital subject.
Any math teacher or professor (and I mean ANY), from third grade through graduate school, could take this book and — just by following the simple but precise steps laid out in its pages — wind up with a classroom full of students who understand and can apply the fundamentals of fractions.
Because this is the age of science, technology, engineering, and math, the need for this book is tremendous. The Fraction Solution provides educators with a giant step forward, leading to a world of math-literate individuals whose lives and careers are more successful because they understand and use the fundamentals of mathematics.
If a math teacher would like to fulfill his or her dreams to help students, then The Fraction Solution is the book for them to buy, study with care, and then apply to students. Everyone will win.
Book Details
The Fraction Solution, Student Edition, is a math textbook with 38 lessons used to teach fraction fundamentals to students in public and private school classrooms, in homeschools, and in tutoring sessions.
What are “fraction fundamentals?”
“Fraction fundamentals” are the simple, true, and complete concepts and skills underlying fraction arithmetic skills. MANY OF THESE FRACTION FUNDAMENTALS ARE UNKNOWN TO MATH EDUCATORS AND ARE NOT TAUGHT IN MATH TEXTBOOKS.
These are the concepts and skills that students need in order to master the fraction arithmetic lessons— the addition, subtraction multiplication and division of common fractions, decimal fractions, and percent fractions — in their schools’ regular math textbooks.
Each of the 38 lessons is accompanied by exercises that enhance the student’s ability to actually APPLY the knowledge taught in that lesson.
When these lessons are taught correctly (per the teaching guides and lesson plans in The Fraction Solution, Teacher Edition) the result will be A STUDENT WHO FULLY UNDERSTANDS THE FUNDAMENTALS OF MATH FRACTIONS. THAT STUDENT CAN THEN APPLY HIS KNOWLEDGE OF FRACTION FUNDAMENTALS TO MASTER THE FRACTION ARITHMETIC ( +, – , x , ÷ ) IN HIS SCHOOL’S REGULAR MATH TEXTBOOKS.
