Book Reviews of More Sideways Arithmetic From Wayside School
Book Review: An excellent supplemental math text for late elementary school
Summary: 5 Stars
In my life as a mathematics educator at the college level, I have used alphametics to teach the fundamentals of arithmetic and have touted the value of doing that at professional conferences. Therefore, I was gratified to see alphametics used in this book to teach algebra to students in late elementary school.
An alphametic is an algebra problem where a few words make up a phrase and each letter represents a digit. When the letters are replaced by the digits, the result is a correct arithmetic problem. For example the first problem in this book is
boys
+ boys
------
silly
Where the solution is
6721
6721
------
13442
The first 39 problems are alphametics and the rest are word problems where the solution is derived via logic. There is a section of hints to the problems and complete solutions are included. This is an excellent supplemental math text for students in late elementary school.
