Sates By the Numbers

The Currclick free book this week is States By the Numbers, Wyoming.

States by the Numbers is a real-data math adventure across the United States. Learn about your favorite state or states by delving into place values, rounding, estimation, fractions and percentages.

There are 50 workbooks in the series - one for each state. The data in each workbook is taken directly from the Census Bureau's 2008 Statistical Abstract of the United States. The Wyoming book is the only one that is free.

Each workbook includes basic instruction and 80 practice problems. Additionally, the "What's the big idea?" pages give learners the opportunity to reflect on the things they've learned. Throughout the workbook series, we have consistently sought to address the content and process standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.
