Product Description
Interesting, enjoyable, and challenging activities to help teach higher level mathematics
Here is a collection of math activities that support the NCTM standards and encourage problem-solving, high-level reasoning, and analytical skills—and are stimulating, interesting, and fun for students. The book includes activities covering geometry, measurement, algebra, statistics and probability, trigonometry, calculus, and more. Featuring a complete answer key to each section, this resource will be a valuable addition to a high school instructor's everyday materials. Judith A. Muschla and Gary Robert Muschla (East Brunswick, NJ), both teachers of mathematics, have coauthored numerous resources for teachers, including The Math Teacher's Book of Lists (0-1325-5910-2) and Hands-On Math Projects with Real-Life Applications (0-1303-2015-3).

 Not Games April 6, 2009

I like this book and highly recommend anything by the Muschla's. But this is a book of worksheets, not games. It does contain entertaining and challenging worksheets that are useful in the classroom. I more often will use their Algebra Teacher's Activity Kit or the Geometry Teacher's Activity Kit.
Not really games, but still great! February 5, 2009

These are not "games" like you might imagine. They are simply interesting math problems. It's a great resource!
Good worksheet book for additional practice - middle school level March 3, 2008

5 out of 5 found this review helpful
While the title is misleading, I found this book a good way to get additional practice in my middle school math classes. The worksheets offer some "puzzle" type problems and "real world" word problems. Students like the worksheets and the format of them doesn't make it feel like everything is on top of each other like worksheets often do.
A good supplement to any classroom
Excellent May 15, 2009

I purchased for my girlfriend during her student teaching. She was able to use alot of the information in this book to bring the fun back to math. It helped her motivate the students.
