This is part three of a three-part School Mathematics Study Group (SMSG) textbook. It contains eight chapters of supplements. Four of these are designed to be supplements to the specific chapters 2, 3, 7, and 10. The other four supplements cover the topics: Determinants; Flow Chart for Two Linear Equations in x and y; Graphs with Non-uniform…

Presents lesson plans for activities to introduce recursive sequences of polygons: golden triangles, regular pentagons, and pentagrams. The resulting number patterns involve Fibonacci sequences. Includes reproducible student worksheets. (MKR)

Presents a lesson in which students communicate verbally and in writing to create and describe geometric transformations, develop vocabulary, demonstrate ability to give unambiguous instructions to translate a triangle, form and test conjectures, and create extensions of problems. Includes reproducible student worksheets and questions for…

This is one of a series of student booklets designed for use in a bilingual mathematics program in grades 6-8. The general format is to present each page in both Spanish and English. The mathematical topics in the booklet include points, lines, planes, space, angles, and intersection and union of sets. (MK)

This is part one of a two-part SMSG mathematics text for junior high school students. Key ideas emphasized are structure of arithmetic from an algebraic viewpoint, the real number system, and metric and non-metric relations in geometry. Topics included are numbers; cardinal numbers; geometry of lines, points, and planes; geometry of angles,…

This is part two of a two-part SMSG mathematics text for junior high school students. Key ideas emphasized are structure of arithmetic from an algebraic viewpoint, the real number system, and metric and non-metric relations in geometry. Included are chapters on the rational number system; parallels, parallelograms, triangles, and right prisms;…

Within this single module there are two approaches to this brief survey of logic. Since most geometry textbooks fail to give an adequate discussion of logic, a "textbook" treatment of the subject has been included. This is found as explanations interspersed in the exercises and these can be used as a textbook approach. However, also included is an…

This is part one of a two-part SMSG mathematics text for junior high school students. Key ideas emphasized are structure of arithmetic from an algebraic viewpoint, the real number system as a progressing development, and metric and non-metric relations in geometry. Chapter topics include number line and coordinates, equations, scientific notation,…
