Think of a number between one and ten. No, hang on, let's make this interesting. Between zero and infinity. Even if you stick to the whole numbers, there are a lot to choose from - an infinite number in fact. Throw in decimal fractions and infinity suddenly gets an awful lot bigger (is that even possible?) And then there are the negative numbers, the imaginary numbers, the irrational numbers like pi which never end. It literally never ends. The world of numbers is indeed strange and beautiful. Among its inhabitants are some really notable characters - pi, e, the "imaginary" number i and the famous golden ratio to name just a few. Prime numbers occupy a special status. Zero is very odd indeed: is it a number, or isn't it? How Numbers Work takes a tour of this mind-blowing but beautiful realm of numbers and the mathematical rules that connect them. Not only that, but take a crash course on the biggest unsolved problems that keep mathematicians up at night, find out about the strange and unexpected ways mathematics influences our everyday lives, and discover the incredible connection between numbers and reality itself. ABOUT THE SERIES New Scientist Instant Expert books are definitive and accessible entry points to the most important subjects in science; subjects that challenge, attract debate, invite controversy and engage the most enquiring minds. Designed for curious readers who want to know how things work and why, the Instant Expert series explores the topics that really matter and their impact on individuals, society, and the planet, translating the scientific complexities around us into language that's open to everyone, and putting new ideas and discoveries into perspective and context.

The Pre-Algebra Doodle Note Book offers your middle school math student the brain benefits of visual note taking all throughout their coursework! The doodle notes include fractions, decimals, integers, percents, geometry, equations, expressions, proportions, probability, graphs, inequalities, the coordinate plane, slope, linear equations, systems, graphing, and more! Each workbook is licensed for only a single student to use. Copying pages is prohibited. What's included: - Over 170 doodle note pages for key concepts in Pre Algebra - Chapter organizer cover pages - Interactive vocabulary review pages for each chapter (doodle-style!) - Bonus pages! - Answer Key & Photo Samples for doodle note concept pages - Teaching Tips & Introductory Pages - 10 different blank templates for any additional notes Each chapter progresses through the lesson topics with guided notes, visual references, and graphic review sheets that follow the brain-based doodle note method. CHAPTERS: 1: Expressions & Integers 2: Equations & Inequalities 3: Decimals & Factors 4: Fractions 5: Ratios, Proportions, & Percents 6: Geometry 7: Area & Volume 8: Statistics & Probability 9: Formulas & Finance 10: Intro to Algebra Math doodle notes activate both hemispheres of the brain and lead to increased focus and retention! Because of dual coding theory, the student brain can process the new content more easily through the interactive tasks, visual memory triggers, and opportunities to sketch, color, and embellish! This book contains interactive visual note templates. It replaces a notebook (and possibly a textbook, depending on the way you teach), but does not replace your practice problem set. Although the pages do offer some examples and problems, you will definitely want to supplement with plenty of practice / homework on the side as well. TEACHER REVIEWS: "I could not believe the increase in engagement and understanding my students demonstrated! We love these!" "Perfect for students with Dyslexia, ADHD, or other learning disabilities." "My 8th grade summer school who are mostly boys loved coloring the notes. I'm pleasantly surprised! "Doodling helps my daughter's stress level during math lessons!" "Keeps them extremely focused!" "My students absolutely love the doodle notes, and they feel like they retain more information." "The color coding helps them to make connections." "My students and I are loving the doodle notes. They can't believe that I am telling them that they have to doodle. And they love watching me doodle too. Not only that but I have already seen a major increase in their math scores."
