Translated Maths Dictionaries

Dear All

Hope you find these dictionaries useful. They are aimed at students from

Grades 3-6. I know there will be some definitions left out. If you let meknow I will have them included.

Most of our students are good at maths but are held back by a lack ofunderstanding of the maths terms.

I print my dictionaries 2 per page, back to back, staples down the middle

and with a coloured cover.

I give each student a copy which remains in the mentals text and anothercopy to take home. This enables the parents to help at home as well.

I give the students quite a few intensive lessons to make sure they areable to use the dictionaries efficiently. I ask them to highlight anything

they have to look up.The students are finding them a very useful tool in the classroom.

Many thanks to Takashi Ogawa for translating it into Chinese andKorean. It was a big job.

I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE ANY FEEDBACK!ThanksDawne Furze
