Product Description
Equipped with this handy reference of more than 400 illustrated definitions, children will be able to quickly find the definitions and illustrated examples that will enable them to solve many of the math challenges they face. Covering everything from "addend" to "zero," this comprehensive resource gives students definitions, illustrations, and examples that can help them solve math problems.

This handbook includes illustrated, concise explanations of the most common terms used in general math classes. The 400 illustrated definitions and examples are categorized by subjects that include: measurement; algebra; geometry; fractions and decimals; statistics and probability; and problem solving. Each term has a concise definition and an example or illustration. This is a guide that needs to be on every child's desk.

The Math Dictionary is much more than a compilation of words and definitions. This book has been organized to reflect the different areas of mathematics taught in elementary and junior high schools. Within each category are all the terms commonly used in this field of study, concise definitions, and many examples and illustrations. In addition, the last chapter provides instructions for basic operations and tables of commonly-used facts and equivalents.

For other dictionary-type references in other topics see The Absolutely Essential Grammar Guide and The Absolutely Essential Writing Guide.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Resource
This dictionary is very helpful.The definitions are not to wordy and are easy to understand.I am a pre-service teacher and purchased this as a resource for my future classroom.I received the book very quickly and it was in great condition.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great reference book
This book is great for childrens as well as adults. Ihighly recommend it.

5-0 out of 5 stars GREAT TEACHING TOOL
I am a math teacher and I use this book in my classroom.The children borrow the book during class to learn a little extra about a concept or review a definition of a word.The dictionary is very kid-friendly. I gifted several of the dictionaries for my neice and nephews at Christmas. Math is so important for students to be successful in school.This book is a education support tool for our future engineers, air traffic controllers, food service workers, football game refereesetc...:)

5-0 out of 5 stars I wish I'd had this book when I was a student
I stumbled across this book by chance on Amazon while searching for something else.My two kids are in fourth and fifth grade. The fifth grader has a lot of frustrations with math, so I often need to help her.I bought this book after reading the reviews, and I am so glad I did!It simplifies math so that in the span of a few seconds, I can quickly and easily remember how to perform mathematical operations that I haven't looked at in years.I can often remember the generalities of an operation, but not the specifics.This book helps me to remember the details that time has seemingly erased.

Math was not my thing when I was growing up, though I always managed to make "Bs" and "Cs".If I'd had this book and a parent or teacher to help guide me, perhaps I would have made better grades and had more confidence.Students who are adept at math will probably find they can use this book independently.Students with weaknesses will likely need the guidance of a parent to help them along, but the beauty is that the dictionary makes it so much easier for the parents to help the student.For example, I often forget the correct terms or definitions when helping my kids with math (e.g., words like "divisor").I find myself trying remember precisely what the divisor is since I haven't encountered that word in many years.Now, I can quickly look it up in the dictionary and confidently assist my kids with their homework, feeling certain thatI'm telling them correct information.

I bought a couple of other math dictionaries targeted to students in addition to this one, thinking that I might get the best of all worlds that way, but this one is by far the best for both kids and adults.This is the book to spend your money on.

Product Description
Kids are struggling with math in school, on tests, and with homework. Parents feel stressed, helpless, and math-phobic. They struggle to encourage and assist on the very subject they are least prepared to manage: MATH.

Broken down using straightforward, simple language, this guide offers parents who are easily intimidated by math instructive and handy concepts to use when helping their students with homework or studying for a big test.

Parents banish math phobia once and for all by facing math head-on in Math for Moms and Dads. Frequently, the issue isn’t “how to,” it’s actually “what do they want me to do?” Learning the language of math in context is the first step in the right direction for helping yourself in today’s math morass so parents can help their child find his or her way out of any math quagmire.

Using a similar methodology applied in SAT Score-Raising Math Dictionary, Kaplan now focuses on the parent in this no-nonsense guide to the lexicon of math. Math terminology and key concepts are defined and decoded into regular, everyday language to promote authentic understanding of what’s at the heart of any math problem.

Other helpful elements are sample problems (with answers, so parents won’t sweat it!) broken down step-by-step; calculator tips so parents can troubleshoot technology-related concerns facing their kids; visual representations of math for visual learners; and National Council of Teachers of Mathematics standards so parents can plan for what their children are responsible for in the upcoming grade and get the help they may need in the appropriate time frame. Finally, a handy timeline detailing which ages/grades kids need to know and master certain math skills helps parents understand the overall math snapshot for the middle school and high school years ahead.

Parents (and then students) learn how to kick word problems to the curb once they figure out how to simplify the language of math with Math for Moms and Dads' easy-to-follow lexicon and resource guide! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Tool
This math dictionary is an excellent resource for my development as an Elementary Teacher. This tool is user and kid friendly. My household use this referecnce source faithfully. My daughter is a Business Management Major and my son is in Middle School. We love the clear definitions and examples showing what the operation(s)look like.

5-0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too
If you spend any amount of time around me, and by that I mean about five minutes (sometimes less), you'll realize pretty quickly that I hate math.Hate it.Abhor it.Can't stand it.Oh, sure, I'm pretty positive that I use it occasionally, most of the time without even knowing it.But if you ask me a math-related question, I'm likely to give you a blank-eyed stare of confusion.Case in point:The other night my son, who will be ten years old in a matter of days, asked me the square root of 64.After the aforementioned blank-eyed stare of confusion, he proceeded to tell me that "square root" means a number that can be multiplied by itself to get the answer.Yes, there was more staring and more confusion."Like the square root of sixteen is four, mom, because four times four is sixteen.And ten doesn't have a square root, because you can't multiply any number times itself to get ten."Oh, yeah, I knew that.Not.

So when I received my copy of MATH DICTIONARY (whose additional title, by the way, is "The Easy, Simple, Fun Guide To Help Math Phobics Become Math Lovers") I was hit with feelings of both trepidation and wonder.Needless to say, I'm still not a math lover, but I think that with the help of this book, I can at least convince my son that I do, in fact, know the basics of mathematics.

MATH DICTIONARY is an A to Z list of some of the most common terms you'll hear in a math classroom.Although the book doesn't cover advanced calculus or any of the hard-to-pronounce mathematical theories that the guy on the TV show Numb3rs likes to spout, it does cover basic mathematics, geometry, algebra, and even statistics and probability.It's all there, from abacus to longitude to zero property of multiplication--and everything in between.

Although MATH DICTIONARY might not turn you into a math lover, it will keep you amused with its "Did You Know?" facts, which are actually quite interesting.It can be used as a handy reference guide to all school-age children, especially those delving into the harder mathematical arenas.And, for parents like myself who are outsmarted by fourth graders, it can definitely keep you from looking stupid.Or as un-stupid as parents can possibly appear to their children!

5-0 out of 5 stars Enthusiastically recommended for junior high and high school libraries.
Math Dictionary: The Easy, Simple, Fun Guide To Help Math Phobics Become Math Lovers by Eula Ewing Monroe (teaches mathematics education at Brigham Young University) is a straightforward reference to basic mathematical terms for readers of all ages and backgrounds, from junior high and high school students to adults in need of a quick refresher. From "average" (including mean, median and mode) to "partial products algorithm" to "zero-dimensional" and much more, the terms cover general arithmetic, geometry, algebra, graphing, probability, statistics, and much more. Advanced mathematical terms such as those used in calculus are not covered. Each definition is spelled out in plain terms, often with simple diagrams to illustrate, eliminating any confusion. Amusing "Did You Know?" quips spice up Math Dictionary with amusing anecdotes such as how the number "googol" (ten to the hundredth power) got its name.
