Mathematics for Elementary Teachers: An Activity Approach, Eighth Edition
(ISBN-13: 978-0-07-723750-9 ISBN-10: 0-07-723750-1)
• The Activity Approach contains Activity Sets that correspond to each section of the text and augment the ideas presented in the sections. Each Activity Set consists of a sequence of inductive activities and experiments that enable the student to build an understanding of mathematical ideas through the use of models and the discovery of patterns. In addition, over thirty Material Cards are included that complement the color cardstock materials in the Manipulative Kit (see description below). A section on Ideas for the Elementary Classroom at the end of each chapter includes a suggested Elementary-School Activity that has been adapted from one of the chapter’s Activity Sets.

• As with previous editions, the Activity Approach and the Conceptual Approach are both available packaged together and with the Manipulative Kit (ISBN-13: 978-0-07-807492-9, ISBN-10: 0-07-807492-4).

Instructor's Resource Manual

Manipulative Kit
• Packaged with your text, these are available on colored punch-out-ready cardstock. For each manipulative there is a resealable bag that lists the numbers and types of pieces in the manipulative set. While these materials are designed for use with the one-page Math Activities that precede each section, they also can be used to form the beginning of a set of resources for future elementary school classes.

Student's Solutions Manual
(ISBN-13: 978-0-07-723753-0 ISBN-10: 0-07-723753-6)
• The Student's Solutions Manual contains detailed solutions to the odd-numbered exercises and Chapter Tests. The introduction offers suggestions for solving problems and for answering the new Writing and Discussion and Making Connections questions in the text. Additional questions and comments have been included at the ends of some of the solutions to give students opportunities to extend their learning.
• The Student’s Solutions Manual can be packed with your students’ textbook as well. Please ask your McGraw-Hill Publisher’s representative for more information about this option.
