SITE MAP - MATH TOOLS
http://mathforum.org/mathtools/sitemap.html
The Math Tools digital library of technology resources
has a new feature: the site map. Now you can view all of
the topics and sub-topics of each course in outline form.
The small numbers to the right of the topics indicate the
number of resources that have been cataloged so far.
Currently open courses include:
Math PreK Math 6
Math K Math 7
Math 1 Algebra I
Math 2 Geometry
Math 3 PreCalculus
Math 4 Calculus
Math 5 Discrete Math
Soon, site maps for these additional courses will also be
added: Algebra II, Trigonometry, and Statistics/Probability.
Registration is free. By filling out the form and checking
the "receive newsletter" option, you will receive an email
update on new features added to the library on the first
Saturday of each month.

This second edition of "Helping Your Child Learn Math" is for
parents of children in kindergarten through fifth grade. It
includes a variety of activities that will help children
learn and apply mathematical concepts such as geometry,
algebra, measurement, statistics, and probability.
All of the activities in this book relate math to everyday
life and complement many of the math lessons that children
are learning in school. The activities use materials that are
easy to find.

- Math at the Grocery Store
- Math on the Go
- Math for the Fun of It
