PreAlgebra Blastoff!™
a fun, effective & hands-on approach to combining integers

Elementary Teachers:

 

Are you now required to teach students the rules for combining positive and negative integers? ...
the rules that tell how to solve problems like:

Do you ever find that students go a little
bit "bananas" trying to learn and retain
these rules?

If so, Singing Turtle has a great product for you:
the brand-new PreAlgebra Blastoff!™ Program.

PreAlgebra Blastoff! gives students a firm, hands-on
foundation for the rules on combining integers. With this foundation in place, students excel in PreAlgebra
and Algebra 1.

How easy does the PreAlgebra Blastoff! program work?

 

• New Approach:
In this effective new technique, students learn the rules for combining integers by working with interlocking foam manipulatives.

• Meet the Manipulatives:

 

See what the foam manipulatives actually look like.

Works with Students at All Levels:

The Works with all levels of elementary students!

Because this is a fun, hands-on program, you can
use PreAlgebra Blastoff! to students from
Kindergarten through 6th grade!

And since the NCTM suggests that ALGEBRAIC
THINKING be part of the curriculum from
Kindergarten on, there's every reason to give
students a head start in understanding positive
and negative numbers.

The earlier chapters of the book work for students
K-3; the later chapters are great for Grades 4 - 6.

Easy Teaching Process:

Using this program, teachers first introduce students to the manipulatives, and before long students are doing problems like:

– 4 – 2 = – 6
1111111111and
111111111+ 8 + 12 = + 20,
with ease and enjoyment!

See how to this problem with manipulatives!

Soon after, they are doing problems like:

– 5 + 3 = – 2
1111111111and
111111111+ 11 – 6 = + 5,
and fully understanding what they are doing, not just memorizing rules.

Shortly thereafter, students can even work out problems like:

– 4 – (– 1) = – 3
111111111111and
111111111116 + (– 13) = – 7
