Patterns and Practicalities (K to 12) is a series of four books (Grades 7 – 10) whose goal is for all students to be successful in learning mathematics in junior high school and for all teachers to have accessible content presented in a variety of formats for a more dynamic and effective teaching of mathematics.
This edition of Patterns and Practicalities retains the well-liked design and approach of the original series.
Revisions to the original series were made to achieve the following:
• Follow the revised scope and sequence of the topics in the K to 12 Mathematics Curriculum (2016).
• Address the twin goals of mathematics in basic education, namely, critical thinking and problem solving, by including more investigative activities, worksheets for fun, web links, quiz bee items, mathematical challenges, and performance tasks and rubrics.
Patterns and Practicalities is designed to guide you to a successful and insightful exploration of the five strands of mathematics in K to 12, which are Numbers and Number Sense, Measurement, Algebra, Geometry, and Statistics and Probability.
