The old aristocrat, Vera McMichael, has two terrible quandaries in her last decade of life. First, there is the teen pregnancy of her granddaughter, Clara. For the 1940s, a baby out of wedlock would foil the familys reputation, especially living in Smut near Vidalia, GA. However, Big Mama, the staunch matriarch, manages to save face by concealing the truth. Secondly, her daughters death presents a bigger dilemma. Obviously waiting like a vulture for Big Mamas demise, Clara is a vixen. The problem is the will of Veras late father. All her property, a life estate from him, is destined to belong to the undeserving granddaughter. Determined, Vera schemes and lies again to obtain her goal in a devious plan called The Fifty. The family lawyer tries in vain to advise Vera against this crazy idea. However, the two new employees, too nave to understand the deep ramifications and potential consequences, accept her offer. In a stupendously twisted irony, The Fifty eventually entangles the lives of two people yet to be born when it was incubated. Novelist Randall W. Anderson spins a tall, tantalizing tale. You will chuckle at what it took to bury Vera, abhor Claras odious words, feel Andrews agonizing pain, taste Jellys sweet success, and whiff Veras fragrant roses. Every mounting lie and discovered truth is absolutely appalling. Forget rattling. For ages the skeletons in Vera McMichaels closet jangled!

This book focusses on teaching and learning in elementary and middle school mathematics and suggests practices for teachers to help children be successful mathematical thinkers. Contributions from diverse theoretical and disciplinary perspectives are explored. Topics include the roles of technology, language, and classroom discussion in mathematics learning, the use of creativity, visuals, and teachers’ physical gestures to enhance problem solving, inclusive educational activities to promote children’s mathematics understanding, how learning in the home can enhance children’s mathematical skills, the application of mathematics learning theories in designing effective teaching tools, and a discussion of how students, teachers, teacher educators, and school boards differentially approach elementary and middle school mathematics. This book and its companion, Mathematical Cognition and Understanding, take an interdisciplinary perspective to mathematical learning and development in the elementary and middle school years. The authors and perspectives in this book draw from education, neuroscience, developmental psychology, and cognitive psychology. The book will be relevant to scholars/educators in the field of mathematics education and also those in childhood development and cognition. Each chapter also includes practical tips and implications for parents as well as for educators and researchers.
