Customer Reviews

Elementary Mathematics

A good reference for those wanting to be teachers. A book worth keeping for future reference.

Excellent Resource for Teaching...

This is an excellent resource for teachers or those, like myself, who are training to be teachers. The chapters are concise and clear in explanation and have the added bonus of a little comic relief in the form of famous syndicated cartoons in nearly each chapter. Also, this textbook provides answers to some end of chapter problems as well as small biographical entries on famous mathematicians who helped mold math as we know it. It gives clear instruction, and is challenging without being overwhelming. An excellent textbook!

Quick Delivery

I was very pleased when I got this book. It was in the condition that the seller said, and it was very quick delivery.

Great Resource for Future Teachers

This textbook is easy to read and follow. The explanations of mathematics, how to teach young children to use strategies, and examples of worksheets make this a great resource for future Elementary school teachers.

This book is actually the solutions manual for the text.

While I haven't actually read the book, I was informed by Addison Wesley that this isbn number is actually for the solutions manual. That's why it is so cheap.
