Empower Math Keeping Things In Proportion Reasoning With Ratios Student Edition PDF Download

The EMPower project aimed at integrating recent mathematical education reform into education programmes for adults and out-of-school youth. Over four years a collaboration of teachers and researchers with expertise in adult numeracy education and K-12 mathematics reform developed and piloted eight contextualised curriculum unit organised around: number and operation sense; patterns, functions, and relations; geometry and measurement; and data and graphs. The content of the EMPower curriculum is consistent with the Principles and Standards for School Mathematics as well as adult focused frameworks such as Equipped for the Future Content Standards, Massachusetts ABE Curriculum Frameworks for Mathematics and Numeracy and the Adult Numeracy Network's Framework for Adult Numeracy Standards. The EMPower curriculum fosters a pedagogy of learning for understanding. Each unit comes with a teacher support guide and student workbook: * 'Seeking Patterns, Building Rules. Algebraic Thinking' (7.1 SCH 1) * 'Many Points Make a Point. Data and Graphs' (7.1 SCH 2) * 'Over, Around, and Within. Geometry and Measurement' (7.1 SCH 3) * 'Using Benchmarks. Fractions, Decimals, and Percents' (7.1 SCH 4) * 'Split it Up. More Fractions, Decimals, and Percents' (7.1 SCH 5) * 'Keeping Things in Proportion. Reasoning with Ratios' (7.1 SCH 6) * 'Everyday Number Sense. Mental Math and Visual Fractions' (7.1 SCH 7) * 'Operation Sense. Even More Fractions, Decimals, and Percents' (7.1 SCH 8).
