Book Description
Peter Placket dreams of being a hero. Like most heroes, hes confident, charismatic, and cunning. Also, he works at a fire station, the perfect venue for showcasing his bravery. Theres just one small problem: Hes made out of paper. How can Peter be heroic when the fire chief forbids him to get within ten yards of fires? The answer comes one day when the lower classes revolt against the aristocracy, turning the Apple Kingdom, Peters home, into a war zone. Realizing that someone must put an end to the violence, Peter flees to the countryside, searching for an ancient magical object that renders its user all-powerful. Only as a sorcerer can Peter return to the Apple Kingdom and conquer the rebel army. Its a grand, sweeping journey, during which Peter will find both allies and adversaries, witness bizarre, deadly magic, attempt to cross an uncrossable sea, and visit an island that technically doesnt exist. Ultimately, the magical object he seeks may do more than end the revolution it may provide the answer to a mystery as old as time!

Fostering Children's Mathematical Power
Author: Arthur J. Baroody
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135674043
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 1096
Book Description
Teachers have the responsibility of helping all of their students construct the disposition and knowledge needed to live successfully in a complex and rapidly changing world. To meet the challenges of the 21st century, students will especially need mathematical power: a positive disposition toward mathematics (curiosity and self confidence), facility with the processes of mathematical inquiry (problem solving, reasoning and communicating), and well connected mathematical knowledge (an understanding of mathematical concepts, procedures and formulas). This guide seeks to help teachers achieve the capability to foster children's mathematical power - the ability to excite them about mathematics, help them see that it makes sense, and enable them to harness its might for solving everyday and extraordinary problems. The investigative approach attempts to foster mathematical power by making mathematics instruction process-based, understandable or relevant to the everyday life of students. Past efforts to reform mathematics instruction have focused on only one or two of these aims, whereas the investigative approach accomplishes all three. By teaching content in a purposeful context, an inquiry-based fashion, and a meaningful manner, this approach promotes chilren's mathematical learning in an interesting, thought-provoking and comprehensible way. This teaching guide is designed to help teachers appreciate the need for the investigative approach and to provide practical advice on how to make this approach happen in the classroom. It not only dispenses information, but also serves as a catalyst for exploring, conjecturing about, discussing and contemplating the teaching and learning of mathematics.
