Contemporary's Number Power 4: Geometry: a real world approach to math (The Number Power Series) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Geometry! Clearly and Concisely Presented--Finally!
I am a high school special education/alternative education teacher in Oregon, working with special needs youngsters. Contemporary's "Number Power 4: Geometry" by Bob Mitchell offers an excellent, concise presentation and review of geometry. The book is an excellent resource as a first introduction to students of the principles of geometry, or as a review for students studying for their GED, SAT or even GRE. In fact, I have recommended this book for teachers who must take the CBEST for teacher licensure in Oregon!
The chapters are succinct, clear, and use real life applications and examples that students will find relevant and engaging. The pages in this worksheet format booklet are laid out clearly, very clearly, and are easy for the student to negotiate. After clearly presenting the beginning principles of geometry in short concise lessons, "Number Power 4: Geometry" gives the student plenty and frequent opportunity for them to check their understanding. This is one of the strengths that sets "Number Power 4: Geometry" apart from other textbooks. Here, students don't have to suffer through pages and pages of instruction before their comprehension is tested. Students will find the book engaging, trust me.
I recommend "Number Power 4: Geometry" without reservation! You won't be disappointed.

McGraw -Hill's Top 50 Math Skills For GED Success Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great book for teachers, tutors and study groups. The book is obviously made up of fifty skills. Each skill is only a couple of pages long and offers practice with GED style questions. I like the book because the small bits of information make a quick review for students. A student can do one skill a day or a week and know exactly how much is left. I also like the book as an introduction to what students actually need. All too often students are overly concerned with fractions and not concerned enough about word problems and problem solving. The book keeps word problems and GED specific problem solving front and center in each skill.
