 Add-Ventures for Girls
Building Math Confidence,
Junior High Teachers Guide
by Dr. Margaret Franklin, University of Nevada (#EDPW032)
Add-Ventures for Girls uses "fun," hands-on activities to expose girls to the exciting world of math. Building on the latest research, this unique field-tested guide provides the tools teachers need to make math relevant to girls. Through real-world problems and discussions about role models, girls develop realistic expectations for math learning and careers. Activities and information about teacher student interaction patterns, girls' learning styles, and the importance of parent involvement help teachers create an environment that makes math work for junior high school girls.
"A welcome addition to mathematics textbooks. As a supplementary text it far outclasses any previously produced work in this area...
The text first educates the teacher on the nature of the problem before giving activities to help solve the problem... Refreshingly gender and culturally unbiased.
 I experimented with a number of the activities on my nine-year-old son and found him begging for more when I stopped. Math had suddenly become a game... a very fun game. What is equally important, especially to a mathematician, is that he could explain the mathematics behind the activities."
