Geometry for Every Kid - Easy Activities that Make Learning Geometry Fun by Janice VanCleave
"Geometry for Every Kid - Easy Activities that Make Learning Geometry Fun" written by Janice VanCleave - softcover book published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. in 1994 - 221 pages - book measures 6" x 9" - original price $10.95 - ISBN# 9780471311416
Condition: Good - covers have light wear along edges - binding solid - pages look clean - no torn or missing pages.
"How do you fold a sheet of paper into the shape of a whale?
"How do you measure the area of a pizza pie?
"How can you draw a circle within a circle without lifting your pencil from the paper?
"Now kids can discover the answers to these and other fascinating questions about elementary geometry—the study of shapes. Packed with illustrations, Geometry for Every Kid uses simple problems and activities to teach kids ages 8 through 12 acute and obtuse angles, parallel and perpendicular lines, plane and space figures, and much more! By relating geometry to everyday life, Janice VanCleave makes kids feel comfortable with geometry - right from the start.
"Kids will explore all the different shapes they can form by arranging the pieces of an intriguing Chinese puzzle called a tangram. They'll also learn how to create a colorful 3-D drawing that seems to rise right off the page! And, by building a geoboard, they'll discover a quick, fun way to compare the area of different geometric figures.
"Each of the activities is broken down into its purpose, a list of materials, step-by-step instructions, expected results, and an explanation that kids can understand. And every one has been "child tested" and can be performed safely and cheaply, in the classroom or at home."
