The Amazing 7-Day, Super-Simple, Scripted Guide to Teaching or Learning Decimals

Welcome to The Amazing 7-Day, Super-Simple, Scripted Guide to Teaching or Learning Decimals . I have attempted to do just what the title says: make learning decimals super simple. I have also attempted to make it fun and even ear-catching. The reason for this is not that I am a frustrated stand-up comic, but because in my fourteen years of teaching the subject, I have come to realize that my jokes, even the bad ones, have a crazy way of sticking in my students' heads. And should I use a joke (even a bad one) repetitively, the associations become embedded in their brains, many times to their chagrin What is so different about this book? First of all, it is scripted , so that tutors, parents and teachers alike can deliver the lessons easily and without frustration. Secondly, the scripts and lessons have been carefully crafted to be ageless -- that is, to apply to any learner, based on age or level of mathematical mastery. Finally, the lessons have been carefully culled and edited over a decade in order to include the most necessary information in a finite and reasonable timetable , something (in this educator's opinion) other books seem to lack.
