It also uses many examples of mathematics from the Bible and explains the timekeeping methods used in biblical times.
- You can use Exploring the World of Mathematics as a break from the regular math routine, and your student will still be doing math!
- Basic mathematical principles including some simple algebra, geometry, and scientific math,
- Egyptian and Greek contributions to mathematics
- Math involving time, the seasons, and measurement
- Fun activities illustrating mathematical principles
- Chapter tests (answers included in back)
- Over 150 illustrations and diagrams.
- Exploring the World of Physics 9780890514665 supplement explains physics in remarkably clear detail. Complemented with black-and-white illustrations, the book uses ordinary speech to explain the concepts of physics. The author’s goal is to “write at a 6th-grade level, but explain the concepts so that a motivated 4th grader can understand the material.”
- Physics equations and formulas are kept to a minimum. The author starts with the simple and goes on to the complex, and the development is somewhat historical in nature but is intended to be an introductory book for beginning physics students. Material of a more difficult nature is found in sidebars entitled “For More Study.”
