Program ApproachProgram ApproachComprehensionHow Can We Make Math Easier to Understand?The key to success in math is a strong foundation of number sense and compre-hension of the concepts. Students must have a thorough understanding of the mathematical processes and know how to use the processes to determine an accurate answer. While memorization is a key element in math, a student who tries to survive on memorization alone will struggle as higher-level skills are introduced.

To excite students about learning math, we have designed a program that en-gages interest using age-appropriate, colorful themes and hands-on involvement for developing understanding and for enhancing mastery. Our math books use a format that focuses on a single main concept in each chapter. Greater levels of dif-ficulty are added as understanding increases. Our textbooks are filled with color-ful photographs and illustrations that picture the problems students are solving as well as the themes.

Excerpt from Math 3 • Chapter 6

A Sequential ApproachTeaching a new concept requires starting at the concrete level (the students use manipulatives), moving to the semiconcrete level (the student watches the teacher demonstrate or uses pictures from the book), and finally progressing to the abstract level (the student solves problems using numerals, signs, and symbols).

Each new concept presented at any grade level is presented by implementing this three-stage process. Review of major concepts may also follow this format.

ManipulativesThe key to our approach is teaching under-standing through the use of manipulatives, ensuring that the student is not just follow-ing a procedure that gives him the correct answer. This interactive, hands-on-learning approach is critical for math success. While the use of manipulatives is easily recog-nized as important for K5, the strategy is equally significant for new concepts taught through Grade 6. BJU Press provides packets of manipulatives for student use in Grades K5–6, making this instructional ap-proach easy to implement.

Connections and ReviewsUnderstanding is further increased by connecting the learning from one con-cept to the next. Math skills build on one another. BJU Press math materials

lay a foundation of understanding and then incorporate frequent review along with the logical introduction of new topics. We use a chapter approach for effective development of concepts related to each topic.

Each chapter concludes with a chapter review that provides the opportunity for formative assess-ment prior to testing. Practice of previously taught skills is also incorporated into the lessons to keep those skills fresh in the students’ minds. Daily practice segments and cumulative reviews provide written practice to help with concept retention.

Critical ThinkingBecause Computing Alone Just Isn’t Good EnoughThe goal of the elementary math program is to help students become critical thinkers and lifelong problem solvers. Education is more than just getting good grades. It is learning to think for oneself and to find the correct answer as well as to explain and justify that answer. Students must not only comprehend facts and formulas but also know how to think mathematically in order to use the material they have learned. We teach students to dig deeper academically—to know mul-tiplication and division, pre-algebra and geometry skills, and then to apply them to everyday situations.

Critical Thinking Through Problem SolvingBJU Press elementary math for K5–Grade 6 provides a framework for critical thinking through instruction in problem solving. Problem solving is the process of confronting a problem and then using one’s knowledge, reasoning abilities, and experiences to reach a solution.

Math concepts are introduced through real-life problems that are encountered at home, at school, and in the community. Word problems pose application ques-tions that students must work through—both in class and on their own. These activities model the skills necessary for becoming adept at problem solving. Furthermore, they enable students to see that math is more than just a subject in the classroom; it is found everywhere we go in life.

Each teacher edition includes a “Teach for Understanding” section that guides the teacher in helping students work through particular problems, showing them how and why various procedures work.

Students do not all learn at the same pace or grasp concepts in the same way. The teacher editions present concepts more than one time and in more than one way to ensure that all students are given the opportunity to learn and grow. Our goal is to help all students become more proficient problem solvers.

Astronomer

I am an astronomer specializing in studying stars. Have you ever thought about how far away from us the stars are? We would never be able to comprehend the huge fi gures we would have to use to measure their distance from the earth in miles. So scientists have come up with a unit of measurement called a light-year. A light-year is the distance that light travels in one year. Light travels at a speed of 186,000 miles per second. One light-year is equal to almost 6 trillion miles. Stars in our own Milky Way galaxy are tens of thousands of light-years away.

I use math to measure distances and the brightness of stars. I measure starlight through an instrument called a photometer that I attach to my telescope. Each star is assigned a number based on how bright it is. Th at number is called its apparent magnitude. Th e brighter the star, the lower the number. Some stars are so bright that they have a negative number for their apparent magnitude. Th e closest star to us, the sun, has an apparent magnitude of ˉ27. A star that looks dim, even through a telescope, may in reality be thousands of times brighter than our sun. Some calculations are needed to assign the star another number—its absolute magnitude. Th e sun’s absolute magnitude is 5. Just thinking about degrees of brightness is pretty mind-boggling. My job never fails to leave me with a sense of awe at the vastness of our universe and the creative power of our God.

Math 3 Teacher’s Edition

AnalysisIn math, there is often more than one way to formulate a correct answer. Three stu-dents may use three different methods to arrive at the same answer, and all will be valid. That is why analysis plays an important part in problem solving. The student uses his critical-thinking skills to analyze the problem and formulate his solution.

ApplicationStudents will be more excited about learning new skills when they are shown practical applications to their everyday lives. Therefore, concepts are reinforced in context with word problems. Students are shown how math skills are used in nu-merous careers, such as cooking, retail sales, carpentry, industry, finance, medicine, design, and many more.

Computation

Accuracy Really CountsAlthough problem solving is the primary goal of math instruction, it is also es-sential to develop accurate computation. This, of course, requires practice of basic math facts and skills. Every lesson in the BJU Press math program has two worktext pages on which students practice the new concepts and skills from the lesson. These pages also include practice of the basic facts.

There are ample practice opportunities available on TeacherToolsOnline.com. Teachers may copy these pages and use them as often as necessary. The goal is accurate and quick recall of facts so that students may focus their time and energy on the main task of using math to solve problems in real life. Balance is the key.

How Can We Use Math to Glorify God?God not only created the world but also created order that math seeks to define. Though creation has been tarnished by the Fall of man into sin, God’s original de-sign and consistency can be found in mathematical details, such as the symmetry of the peacock, the spirals of the nautilus shell, and the orbit of the planets around a stars. The orderliness of math points to the Creator of order.

The BJU Press elementary math program integrates biblical content to cultivate a Christian worldview that will help each student take his place in God’s world. Each teacher edition guides the teacher in explaining math concepts through a bibli-

cal worldview, identifying Christian principles, high-lighting Christian character traits, and pointing out that math is an important tool for making wise use of God’s creation.

God’s world is a place that can be measured with numbers. And if we know how to use numbers, we can become very skilled at having the kind of dominion that helps others and glori-fies God.

Think about a time when you took cookies or cupcakes to share with some friends. How did you know how many to take? You used math.

A Christian wants to please God with his life. Math is a tool to do that.

Here are several ideas to think about as you study math this year.

Serving God with Math

1. God is the Creator.Studying math helps people see that the entire world was made by God. He made the world so that math works with everything! You can add cookies or cars. You can subtract balls or elephants. This shows that everything was made by a wise Creator.

2. God put people on the earth to work.Work is good. The Bible says in Genesis 1:28 that God created people to work. God gave Adam work to do in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 2:15). Almost every kind of work uses math. Learning math is important because it helps you do the work God gives you.

Love for Learning

How Can We Make Math Enjoyable?BJU Press textbooks along with the teacher’s abilities can have a positive impact in the classroom to build a love for math. One of the goals of our elementary math program is to show students that math can be fun!

BJU Press provides you with the tools you need to help your students succeed in learning and in life. The goal of successful learning has been reached when students understand the material and when they enjoy exploring and discovering the disciplines that help them serve their Creator better.

Our math books are filled with colorful photographs and illustrations. Each grade level includes a unique theme to motivate students. Relevant, action-packed stories introduce all chapters, making math enjoyable to even the most unenthusiastic math student. To engage the students in active learning, hands-on activities, such as using math manipula-tives, group problem-solving, acting-out math problems, and making graphs help engage every student in the learning process.

Overview 121

A Fine Feathered RoofAs Matt stepped off the train in India, he heard a

deep voice at his side.“My friend says you do a great job building house-

boats! With all this rain, I just might need a house-boat too!”

Matt pushed back the hood of his raincoat to see who spoke so cheerily on such a drab day. “Good morning,” he said. “I’m Matt O’Malley. Are you Sanya Li’s friend?”

“Yes.” A huge smile broke out on the man’s face. “I’m Raman Gandhi. Sanya told me you would be on this train. If you are ready to go, I have my bullock cart waiting,” said Raman. “May I help you carry your things?”

“I think I can manage,” said Matt. He bent down to pick up his suitcase and Paddy’s cage. “How long has it been raining here?”

“Well, it’s the rainy season,” said Raman. He and Matt got into the cart, and the bullocks sloshed off down the muddy road. “So, of course, it’s been raining several months already. But last week’s storm was the worst one I’ve ever seen. It washed out many of the huts in my village.”

“What are these huts made out of?” asked Matt.“Mud,” Raman answered, “with thatched roofs.”Matt glanced down at the road. “Mud—well, at least

that’s one thing we’ll have plenty of. I think with a few pointers from you and your people on how to build mud huts, I can help you rebuild your village.”

Matt noticed that most of the huts had huge holes in their thatched roofs. He glanced at the sky. It wouldn’t be long before the hard rains came again. This village had to be repaired, and fast!

Matt met Raman’s wife, Maya, his daughter, Leah, and their pet peacock Ringama. “You’d better lock Paddy in his cage,” Leah said. “Ringama hates other animals. He’ll bite your beaver.”

Paddy sat up, eyeing Ringama. Ringama fluffed up his tail feathers and walked away proudly.

Raman and the other men of the village met with Matt and planned the repairs needed on each hut. Out of 50 huts, 22 had damaged walls, and the rest needed new roofs. Matt got out his notepad and figured quickly. That left 28 huts that needed new thatched roofs. He organized the men into groups: one group to repair walls and one to make new roofs.

Matt found that he missed Paddy’s help as he rebuilt the huts. But he kept Paddy locked in his cage as Leah had warned him. Often Ringama the peacock would come where the men were working, watch for a moment, and then turn and strut away with his tail fanned out.

In a week’s time, all but the last few huts had thatched roofs, new mud on their walls, and even sturdy new shelters for the animals.

One afternoon, Matt decided that he just had to have Paddy’s help. Making sure that Ringama was safely out of sight, he let Paddy out of the cage and sent him in search of more twigs and leaves for the last thatched roof. “Stay away from that peacock,” he told the little beaver.

Half an hour later, he looked up from his work to see Paddy charging toward him, carrying something in his mouth. Behind him raced Ringama, screeching loudly, stretching his neck forward as he ran. “Oh, no! Paddy, what have you done now?”

Paddy stopped near Matt’s feet and dropped three long, brightly-colored peacock feathers on top of the pile of twigs and leaves. Ringama paused only long enough to squawk angrily at Paddy once more and then turned and half-ran, half-flew away.

Matt groaned. “Paddy, no wonder that peacock was upset with you. I said leaves and twigs, not Ringama’s tail feathers!”

Paddy ducked his head and looked rather pitiful. Matt laughed. “I must admit, though, that these feathers will make a pretty addition to Raman’s thatched roof!”

Your child will learn the following concepts about subtracting two-digit numbers in Chapter 7.

Estimating—Round to the nearest ten to estimate (47 – 32 = ___; think 50 – 30 = 20).

Renaming—Rename 1 ten as 10 ones (52 – 14 = ___ ; rename 1 ten as 10 ones and subtract the Ones place, 12 – 4 = 8; then subtract the Tens place, 4 – 1 = 3).

Money—Subtract using money (55¢ – 21¢ = ___¢). Rename 1 dime as 10 pennies.

Check subtraction—Use addition to check the answer to a subtraction problem.

Matt and PaddyRaman Li’s village in India needs Matt and Paddy to help them repair their mud huts after a flood. The men in the village help Matt fix the roofs and walls that were damaged. Paddy makes the Li family’s pet peacock mad when he plucks out three of the peacock’s tail feathers as he gathers leaves and twigs for the new roofs.

Math in the HomeProvide your child with 9 dimes and 9 pennies. Write a two-digit subtraction problem such as 45¢ – 23¢. Tell him to use the pennies to subtract the ones and the dimes to subtract the tens. Then ask him to give the answer. Continue to practice with similar problems.

This list shows the fact families your child will be memoriz-ing during this chapter. Provide opportunities for your child to practice these fact families by using related addition and subtraction flashcards, by calling out related facts orally, or by playing games.

A. Student WorktextUsing age-appropriate content and colorful illustrations, each student worktext provides two pages of explanation and practice problems per lesson, daily review sections, and a chapter review. Some worktexts also include a “Career Link” or an “Exploring Ideas” page.

B. Teacher EditionThe teacher edition for each grade contains full-color, reduced-size student pages with overprint answers. Each lesson is preceded by a chapter overview that in-cludes a chart listing the objectives for each lesson, the materials needed for each chapter, and a section entitled “A Little Extra Help” to provide ideas for helping the student who experiences difficulty with the concepts taught in the chapter. Each teacher edition also includes a math background section that provides the teacher with a thorough explanation of the math concepts taught at the elemen-tary level.

C. ReviewsReviews provide opportunities for extra practice that teachers may use for home-work, assessment, or cumulative review. As students complete practice activities on the current lesson and spiral reviews of previous concepts, they take a crucial step toward gaining automaticity with the material. Review books are available for Grades 1 through 4, with additional reviews available on the Grade 5 Teacher Toolkit CD.

D. Manipulatives PacketsTo build and reinforce understanding, new concepts are introduced in each grade with the use of manipulatives. Both the teacher manipulatives packet and the student manipulatives packet include items such as pocket charts, number lines, paper coins and bills, rulers, workmats, counters, and geometric shapes, giving the students hands-on practice of the concept. Items may be prepared at the beginning of the school year or as needed for each chapter.

E. AssessmentsEach assessments packet includes a test for each chapter. The assessments answer key is also available for each grade.
