Mississippi Materials & Resource Center, Gulfport.
This curriculum guide, designed for use with secondary migrant students, presents mathematics activities in the areas of whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percent, measurement, geometry, probability and statistics, and sets. Within the categories of whole numbers, fractions, and decimals are activities using addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, applications, equivalent fractions, LCM and GCF, and conversions. Skills in the percent category involve conversions, calculations, and applications. Within the category of measurement are skills in linear measurement, area, volume, time, temperature, weight (mass), capacity, and money. Within the category of sets are skills involving single sets, subsets, set relations, set operations, and Yenn diagrams. Basic graphs are explained in the section on probability and statistics, and basics are presented in the Geometry category. The skills are correlated with the numerical coding of the Math Skills List published by the Migrant Student Record Transfer System. Each activity page includes the skill name and number, the objective, directions, and follow-up activities. Pages are illustrated, with most suitable for reproduction for classroom use. Many of the activities are presented in a game format. (KS)
