This We Know To Be True
Reassembling the Geometry Curriculum
Publisher Description
Have you ever wondered why we have separate strands for teaching mathematics? I always have, and I think they detract from learning the beauty of mathematics as we learn math in school. This book lets you learn number concepts and applications, measurement, algebra all while engaging with complex, puzzling, fun geometry problems and proofs.
Have you ever wondered why certain concepts are chosen for the mathematics curriculum, and how they are introduced, but not used to any great extent? I have. Our students are very capable of a lot more than they are given in the curriculum and way more than what traditional textbooks ask of them. This book has a reasonably low floor, but very high ceilings that allow for students to use what they have learned in a complex, interesting problem solving environment.
