Researched and created by teachers Stephen Krulik and Jesse A. Rudnick, Teaching Middle School Mathematics: Activities, Materials, And Problems is an extensive, "classroom friendly" resource of sample problems, worksheets, exercises and more for teaching middle school students about everything from fractions and magic squares, to basic geometry and algebra, to networks with odd and even vertices, and a great deal more. Reproducible pages and carefully explained directions for the activities make Teaching Middle School Mathematics a truly first-rate curriculum supplement for tenured and substitute teachers, and would prove an invaluable resource for dedicated homeschool instruction as well.

Teaching is difficult enough and when I was reviewing books for a research paper I came to this one from the College library. I now have it full of post-it-notes saying I want to try this one, and this one, etc. So I figured I should buy the book myself since I want to try about half the activities, materials, or problems next year with my classes. I also want to share it with my co-workers, but it was close to midnight and I had to wait.
