This visual guide takes advantage of color and illustrations to factor out confusion and helps you easily master the subject. You'll review the various properties of numbers, as well as how to use powers and exponents, fractions, decimals and percentages, and square and cube roots. Each chapter concludes with exercises to reinforce your skills.

Basic Skills for Homeschooling is a complete overview of the issues surrounding homeschooling through the formative years. This book is designed to provide parents with the information, suggestions, and supplementary lessons they need to be a more effective teacher to their home-middle-schooler.
Offering an overview of the academic goals for middle school, the book presents a breakdown of reading, writing, listening, and speaking for socialization, information and understanding, critical analysis and evaluation, literary response, and expression.
The book also tutors mathematics, including all the basics, operations and number concepts, fractions and decimals, exponents and roots, algebra (covered in six lessons), and much more.
A guide to essential resources completes the book, including the best magazines, books, CD-ROMs and websites for parents and their home learner.

A basic math workbook.
It uses a variety of techniques to help children strengthen the math skills aquired in grades one and two.

How can early years practitioners help young children to become not only numerate but also aspiring mathematicians who love numbers, shapes and mathematical comparisons?
The introduction of the Foundation Stage has led to practitioners seeking ways to teach maths that are more in line with the creative and playful ways young children learn other subjects.
Linda Pound draws on current thinking about children’s mathematical development to show how you can encourage and enhance the numeracy skills of any child in the early years by linking maths to everyday life situations and making it a playful and enjoyable cross-curricular activity.

"If you are interested in the beauty of mathematics, you must go out and buy Robin Wilson's absolutely stunning book of mathematical stamps, a book which traces the history of mathematics through images on the postage of countries around the globe." - Victor Katz, MAA Online

Postage stamps are an attractive vehicle for presenting mathematics and its development. For many years the author has presented illustrated lectures entitled Stamping through Mathematics to school and college groups and to mathematical clubs and societies, and has written a regular Stamps Corner for The Mathematical Intelligencer. The book contains almost four-hundred postage stamps relating to mathematics, ranging from the earliest forms of counting to the modern computer age. The stamps appear enlarged and in full color with full historical commentary, and are listed at the end of the book.
