This is part two of a two-part SMSG mathematics text for junior high school students. Key ideas emphasized are structure of arithmetic from an algebraic viewpoint, the real number system as a progressing development, and metric and non-metric relations in geometry. Chapter topics include real numbers, similar triangles, variation, non-metric…

This is part two of a two-part SMSG intermediate mathematics text for high school students. The aim of the text is to focus attention on mathematical ideas which are appropriate for study by college-capable students in the eleventh grade. Chapter topics include number systems, an introduction to coordinate geometry in the plane, the function…

This text is the first of five in the Secondary School Advanced Mathematics (SSAM) series which was designed to meet the needs of students who have completed the Secondary School Mathematics (SSM) program, and wish to continue their study of mathematics. The first chapter, devoted to organizing geometric knowledge, deals with the distinction…

This text is the fourth of five in the Secondary School Advanced Mathematics (SSAM) series which was designed to meet the needs of students who have completed the Secondary School Mathematics (SSM) program, and wish to continue their study of mathematics. This text begins with a brief discussion of quadratic equations which motivates the…

The sixteen chapters of this book provide the core material for the Elements of Mathematics Program, a secondary sequence developed for highly motivated students with strong verbal abilities. The sequence is based on a functional-relational approach to mathematics teaching, and emphasizes teaching by analysis of real-life situations. This text is…

This text is one of the sequence of textbooks produced for low achievers in the seventh and eighth grades by the School Mathematics Study Group (SMSG). There are eight texts in the sequence, of which this is the seventh. This set of volumes differs from the regular editions of SMSG junior high school texts in that very little reading is required.…

One of 12 books developed for use with the core material (Book O) of the Elements of Mathematics Program, this text covers material well beyond the scope of the usual secondary mathematics sequences. These materials are designed for highly motivated students with strong verbal abilities; mathematical theories and ideas are developed through…

This programed textbook consists of short sections of text interspersed with questions designed to aid the student in understanding the material. The course is designed to increase the student's understanding of some of the basic ideas of algebra. Some general experience and manipulative skill with respect to high school algebra is assumed.…

This is volume one of a three-volume SMSG junior high school mathematics text. This volume contains units concerned with the structure of the number systems of arithmetic. Unit topics include: (1) numeration; (2) natural numbers and zero; (3) factoring and primes; (4) supplementary tests for divisibility and repeating decimals; (5) the…

This manual was designed for use by teachers using the School Mathematics Study Group's (SMSG) special text series for low achievers in grades 7 and 8; it covers chapters 10 through 18 of that series. The manual begins with introductory material describing characteristics of low-achieving students and suggested instructional approaches. Testing…
