Squares, Roots, and Exponents

544: Discover the Basics - Squares, Roots, Exponents, 138 pages - $39.95 Teacher Edition, $24.95 Home Edition

Why do we call a number with a little exponent 2 next to it "squared?" What does a square root look like? To clarify such concepts, a picture is really worth a thousand words. In this case, the picture is the "SquareMaker," a graphic that makes the concepts comprehensible, visible, and establishes a sound basis for fluent recall and calculation. Students learn to add, subtract, multiply, and divide with squares, roots, and other exponents, and extend these concepts and skills to decimals, fractions, and negative exponents - all of which have pictures and graphics to make the concepts clear.

Home Ideal for homeschool instruction, parents wanting to support their child's school work and,
Teacher teachers wanting to introduce or consolidate concepts. The teacher edition includes photocopying rights.
