Hot X: Algebra Exposed
I am impressed with this math book, I just wished that I would have had something fun like this when I was in school. Although geared towards girls, I am sure boys will be able to learn from her examples and the way that she presents the material inside this book. I haven’t read everything inside the book yet because the book is packed with lots of information and I want to purchase my own copy and add post-its as I go through it, with things I want to refer back to.
Inside the book, you will find examples, diagrams, tips and Danica’s own twists on math. She just doesn’t touch on the subjects but she gives lots of examples and she elaborates on these examples. I especially like the language that Danica’s uses in the book, it is plain and simple, yet not slow and lengthy. She explains the math in an easy-to-understand language. As a substitute teacher, I can’t wait to get a copy of this book and get some tips that will help the students in the classroom. Any help that I can find for them will be beneficial. Thanks Danica for giving students the tools to make them successful. Hopefully, this will encourage them and make this subject less of a struggle for them.
