Tiger Math


Book Description

The Tiger Math series was designed based on my three beliefs toward elementary math education. 1. It is extremely important to build foundation of math by acquiring a sense of numbers and mastering the four operation skills in terms of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. 2. In math, one should go through all steps in order, step by step, and cannot jump from level 1 to 3. 3. Practice math every day, even if only for 10 minutes. Two goals of Tiger Math Level A ? 2 are 1) to practice counting, writing, and reading the numbers up to 70 and 2) to practice recognizing the order of numbers up to 70.

The Lady Or the Tiger?


Book Description

"Another scintillating collection of brilliant problems and paradoxes by the most entertaining logician and set theorist who ever lived." — Martin Gardner. Inspired by the classic tale of a prisoner's dilemma, these whimsically themed challenges involve paradoxes about probability, time, and change; metapuzzles; and self-referentiality. Nineteen chapters advance in difficulty from relatively simple to highly complex.

The Tiger That Isn't


Book Description

Mathematics scares and depresses most of us, but politicians, journalists and everyone in power use numbers all the time to bamboozle us. Most maths is really simple - as easy as 2+2 in fact. Better still it can be understood without any jargon, any formulas - and in fact not even many numbers. Most of it is commonsense, and by using a few really simple principles one can quickly see when maths, statistics and numbers are being abused to play tricks - or create policies - which can waste millions of pounds. It is liberating to understand when numbers are telling the truth or being used to lie, whether it is health scares, the costs of government policies, the supposed risks of certain activities or the real burden of taxes.
