Teacher Review

Is it possible that N. Dooley's students have difficulty with this book because N. Dooley can't spell?! Assuming this person is truly a teacher it's no wonder.

Wonderful addition to my curriculum!

I stumbled across this book and love it! I pick and choose the sections to fit in my math curriculum throughout the year. My students love the activities. Problem-solving time and groupwork have become the most interesting part of my math classes. Even adult visitors enjoy putting in their "two cents" and watching my middle school learning disabled students figure out the answers (sometimes rather loudly). One of the best math books I have come across lately.
