Synopsis

For a video description of the MathWise series of workbooks click on the "Follow the Author" - Peter L. Wise.

MathWise workbooks are unique in that they give interactive instruction as students are working on math problems. Speech bubbles give insights, hints, and observations in measured doses—not all at once, so that students don’t lose attention or get overloaded.

Answer frames foster good technique—they ensure that students solve problems in steps and show their work. This is especially important in algebra, because the steps are essential components of the process, yet students want to solve equations mentally.

Number sense and sound mathematical thinking are emphasized throughout. In addition to learning the concepts, students develop power with numbers and understand how and why math works the way it does.

These books are skill-specific—not grade specific. Challenge problems are sprinkled throughout the books to stretch students’ thinking and to help them grow in their problem-solving skills.

MathWise books can be used to supplement any curriculum. They can be used for remediation with higher grades, and they can be used for enrichment with lower grades. They can also be used to pre-teach concepts or to review material that was previously presented. Students often say that the MathWise books helped them to really understand the material for the first time. The layout, explanations, tips and tricks, sequence of instruction, and mathematical connections presented in these books all contribute to the success of the curriculum.

The material in the MathWise books took over 14 years to create and design. These books have been used, tested, and critiqued in the classroom for over a decade.
