Description
It is remarkable to find a math book that is written not only with passion but which introduces major discoveries that significantly expand our understanding of the science of mathematics — specifically, fractions. And if that is not enough to bring parents and educators to their feet with applause, Fraction Fundamentals, Simple & Complete is written and illustrated in a way that invites full comprehension by readers.
Bruce Silton, author and illustrator of Fraction Fundamentals, Simple & Complete, is a tutor with 21 years of successful experience helping students from kindergarten through 12th grade overcome learning difficulties in all subjects — but especially mathematics.
Based on 22,000 tutoring sessions, he has gained not only a profound personal understanding of fractions but has developed simple, step-by-step procedures that accurately communicate the fundamental concepts, the precise definitions, and the skills needed by elementary and high school students to master the fraction math lessons in their regular textbooks.
And there is more! In order to expand our understanding of abstract mathematical concepts, the definitions and descriptions in Fraction Fundamentals, Simple & Complete are accompanied by an abundance of bold, hand-drawn, black and white illustrations that illuminate the ideas and support the application of those ideas to the real world.
Finally, to ensure that every parent and every educator truly grasps the entire message of his book, Mr. Silton has written his own 72-page glossary — a unique glossary that gently guides the reader into a fuller understanding of fraction fundamentals. And, surprise, some of his “definitions” are actually short but brilliant essays on relevant topics in mathematics that illuminate the text.
In summary, Fraction Fundamentals, Simple & Complete, is a comprehensive statement of the core essentials of the author’s discoveries in the field of fractions and should be required reading for any individual, whether parent or professional educator, who wants our students to receive a complete and useful math education.
