Blake S Unlock Your Child Natural Maths

This book is the key parents need to unlock their childrenâ ^s natural m aths ability! Childrenâ ^s interest will be engaged as they hav e fun together with their parent or carer, establishing a solid number s ense through useful strategies and games. They will discover and learn e ffective mental computation strategies as they assist their child to con fidently embrace their natural maths ability. The strategies in this book are presented in the same order that children encounter them in school, from Year 1 to Year 4. They each include a colourful illustra tion and a brief description, followed by games to play with the childre n to demonstrate how the strategy works. Each different strategy should be introduced in the same order as the book, which follows a carefully c onstructed developmental sequence.

Provides the core knowledge and understanding of the concepts students require to become confident and enthusiastic maths users. Organised into eight units of work based on the current research into developmental sequence in which young children generally acquire those concepts. Ages 4-5.

People have described nature since the beginning of human history. They do it for various purposes, including to communicate about economic, social, governmental, meteorological, sustainability-related, strategic, military, and survival issues as well as artistic expression. As a part of the whole world of living beings, we use various types of senses, known and unknown, labeled and not identified, to both communicate and create. Describing Nature Through Visual Data is a collection of impactful research that discusses issues related to the visualization of scientific concepts, picturing processes, and products, as well as the role of computing in advancing visual literacy skills. Organized into four sections, the book contains descriptions, theories, and examples of visual and music-based solutions concerning the selected natural or technological events that are shaping present-day reality. The chapters pertain to selected scientific fields, digital art, computer graphics, and new media and confer the possible ways that visuals, visualization, simulation, and interactive knowledge presentation can help us to understand and share the content of scientific thought, research, artistic works, and practice. Featuring coverage on topics that include mathematical thinking, music theory, and visual communication, this reference is ideal for instructors, professionals, researchers, and students keen on comprehending and enhancing the role of knowledge visualization in computing, sciences, design, media communication, film, advertising, and marketing.

The representation of abstract data and ideas can be a difficult and tedious task to handle when learning new concepts; however, the advances of emerging technology have allowed for new methods of representing such conceptual data. The Handbook of Research on Maximizing Cognitive Learning through Knowledge Visualization focuses on the use of visualization technologies to assist in the process of better comprehending scientific concepts, data, and applications. Highlighting the utilization of visual power and the roles of sensory perceptions, computer graphics, animation, and digital storytelling, this book is an essential reference source for instructors, engineers, programmers, and software developers interested in the exchange of information through the visual depiction of data.

Vols. for 1871-76, 1913-14 include an extra number, The Christmas bookseller, separately paged and not included in the consecutive numbering of the regular series.
