Math Detective® uses topics and skills drawn from national math standards to
prepare your students for advanced math courses and assessments
that measure reasoning, reading comprehension, and writing in math.
Students read a short
story that includes a chart, table, or graph. Next
they answer critical thinking questions to improve
their understanding of the math concept and develop
their critical thinking (comprehension) skills. Students
can’t just scan the story for answers—they must carefully analyze and synthesize the information
from the text and the chart, table, or graph to explain
and support their answers.
Stories are age-relevant, high-interest, and show students
that math is integral to everyday activities.
Teaching Support Includes general and student introductions, a lesson
that explains the concept of evidence, a chart of topics
and key ideas to help select activities, and detailed
answers.
