Create a Math Environment

Read the review

Selected as a Resource in Education

Create a Math Environment is a parent helper for those who want arithmetic made touchable. It is a supportive tool, intended to introduce mathematical concepts in the home and to produce familiarity before it is studied in depth in a formal school environment; it may also serve as a reinforcement tool after a concept has already been taught. Age specifics for each concept are given and instructions clearly tell parents or teachers what they need to know in presenting ideas to the learner. A busy parent or teacher can turn to a page and find an activity that teaches a concept within a manageable time period. The parent gains a quick understanding of the objective using the materials suggested. Sometimes a diagram illustrates the procedure.

Milner-Rosenwald

 

In 2004, the Northeast black History Committee of Mount Dora, Florida presented an historic photo exhibit of school life in a small, segregated town. With a history dating back to the 1920's, Milner-
Rosenwald Academy, the African American school started with funds from the Rosenwald Foundation, was anything but ordinary. Photos tell a story of the emphasis placed on academia by the entire community.
