Mathematics for Elementary Teachers : An Activity Approach

This book is designed for courses in mathematics for elementary teachers that choose to focus on and/or take an activities approach. This book serves as a set of inductive activities for prospective elementary and secondary teachers that use physical models, manipulatives, and visual images to develop concepts and encourage higher level thinking. (This new Fourth Edition contains an activity set corresponding to each section of the text. This text can be used independently or can be used with its companion volume; MATHEMATICS FOR ELEMENTARY TEACHERS: A CONCEPTUAL APPROACH, 4/E also by Bennett and Nelson.)
