AUTHOR: Chris McMullen earned his Ph.D. in physics from Oklahoma State University and currently teaches physics at Northwestern State University of Louisiana. He developed the Improve Your Math Fluency series of workbooks to help students become more fluent in basic math skills. EXAMPLES: Each section begins with one page of description of how to solve the problems along with a couple of examples (with numbered steps) to illustrate the technique. PRACTICE: This is a practice workbook geared toward practicing problem-solving skills. As such, it consists of worksheets with practice problems in the spirit of old-fashioned practice sheets. This is suitable for students who need to practice basic skills, and is effective for many students. It is not one of the modern math textbooks that are designed to entertain bored students. Plenty of space is provided for students to write their solutions. ANSWERS: An answer section at the back provides a complete answer key. It's important for students to practice solving problems correctly, otherwise they will practice their mistakes. Students, parents, or teachers should use the answer key to help students check their answers. CONTENTS: This practice book is designed to help students develop proficiency with their long division skills by offering ample practice. This book is conveniently divided up into six parts: Part 1 reviews division facts with single-digit divisor and quotient since swift knowledge of these is critical toward long division mastery. Part 2 is limited to single-digit divisors. This way students are not challenged with too much too soon. Part 3 focuses on double-digit divisors. Parts 4 and 5 provide practice with remainders. Part 6 features a variety of multi-digit long division problems with and without remainders. An introduction describes how parents and teachers can help students make the most of this workbook. A multiplication table is provided to help students who are just learning their division facts. SCORING: Kids are encouraged to time and score each page. In this way, they can try to have fun improving on their records, which can help lend them confidence in their math skills

Winner of the NAACP Image Award for Fiction From Kiese Laymon, author of the critically acclaimed memoir Heavy, comes a “funny, astute, searching” (The Wall Street Journal) debut novel about Black teenagers that is a satirical exploration of celebrity, authorship, violence, religion, and coming of age in post-Katrina Mississippi. Written in a voice that’s alternately humorous, lacerating, and wise, Long Division features two interwoven stories. In the first, it’s 2013: after an on-stage meltdown during a nationally televised quiz contest, fourteen-year-old Citoyen “City” Coldson becomes an overnight YouTube celebrity. The next day, he’s sent to stay with his grandmother in the small coastal community of Melahatchie, where a young girl named Baize Shephard has recently disappeared. Before leaving, City is given a strange book without an author called Long Division. He learns that one of the book’s main characters is also named City Coldson—but Long Division is set in 1985. This 1985-version of City, along with his friend and love interest, Shalaya Crump, discovers a way to travel into the future, and steals a laptop and cellphone from an orphaned teenage rapper called...Baize Shephard. They ultimately take these items with them all the way back to 1964, to help another time-traveler they meet to protect his family from the Ku Klux Klan. City’s two stories ultimately converge in the work shed behind his grandmother’s house, where he discovers the key to Baize’s disappearance. Brilliantly “skewering the disingenuous masquerade of institutional racism” (Publishers Weekly), this dreamlike “smart, funny, and sharp” (Jesmyn Ward), novel shows the work that young Black Americans must do, while living under the shadow of a history “that they only gropingly understand and must try to fill in for themselves” (The Wall Street Journal).

He developed the Improve Your Math Fluency series of workbooks to help students become more fluent in basic math skills. EXAMPLES Each section begins with a couple of annotated examples to illustrate how to solve the problems. ANSWERS An answer section at the back provides a complete answer key. It's important for students to practice solving problems correctly, otherwise they will practice their mistakes. Students, parents, or teachers should use the answer key to help students check their answers. CONTENTS This practice book is designed to help students develop proficiency with their multiplication skills by offering ample practice. Computer-generated answers have been included at the back of the workbook so that students, parents, or teachers may quickly check the results of their solutions. There is plenty of space for students to write their solutions. This book is conveniently divided up into six parts: Part 1 reviews the fundamental multiplication facts between single-digit factors since swift knowledge of these is critical toward multiplication mastery. Parts 2 and 3 are limited to single-digit numbers times multi-digit numbers. This way students are not challenged with too much too soon. Part 4 involves double-digit numbers times double-digit numbers. Part 5 involves double-digit numbers times triple-digit numbers. Part 6 involves triple-digit multiplication. An introduction describes how parents and teachers can help students make the most of this workbook. A multiplication table is provided to help students who are just learning their multiplication facts. PRACTICE This is a practice workbook geared toward practicing problem-solving skills. As such, it consists of worksheets with practice problems in the spirit of old-fashioned practice sheets. This is suitable for students who need to practice basic skills, and is effective for many students. It is not one of the modern math textbooks that are designed to entertain bored students. PHOTOCOPIES The copyright notice permits parents/teachers who purchase one copy or borrow one copy from a library to make photocopies for their own children/students only. This is very convenient if you have multiple children/students or if a child/student needs additional practice.

A great long division workbook. Plenty of practice problems on every page and still enough room to show your work. Starts with single digit divisor problems. Later introduces remainders and multi-digit divisors. An excellent resource for students wanting to master the steps of long division.

This math workbook from the Dr. Pi Squared Math Workbooks focuses on basic fraction skills. The first two chapters introduce the concept of representing a fraction with pie slices. The remaining ten chapters offer practice converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions, reducing fractions and mixed numbers, finding the lowest common denominator, comparing fractions and mixed numbers, finding reciprocals of fractions and mixed numbers, and adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions and mixed numbers. Each section begins with a description of how to perform the mathematical procedure, including fully-solved examples to illustrate the technique and to serve as a useful guide. Answers are nicely organized by page number in the back of the book to allow students, parents, or teachers to quickly check the answers. There is ample workspace for students to write large answers and still fit their solutions comfortably into the space provided. High-quality, durable, bright paper is used (instead of standard workbook paper, which often tears easily and appears dull in color). CONTENTS: (1) Determining Fractions Visually, (2) Representing Fractions Visually (students color the pie slices), (3) Converting Mixed Numbers into Improper Fractions, (4) Converting Improper Fractions into Mixed Numbers, (5) Reducing Fractions and Mixed Numbers, (6) Finding Lowest Common Denominators, (7) Comparing Fractions (includes fractions vs. fractions, integers vs. fractions, and mixed numbers vs. fractions), (8) Adding Fractions (includes fractions plus fractions, fractions plus integers, and mixed numbers plus mixed numbers), (9) Subtracting Fractions (includes fractions minus fractions, subtracting fractions with integers, and mixed number minus mixed numbers), (10) Multiplying Fractions (includes fractions times fractions, fractions times integers, and mixed numbers times mixed numbers), (11) Reciprocating Fractions, Integers, and Mixed Numbers, (12) Dividing Fractions, Answers (includes fractions divided by fractions, dividing fractions with integers, and mixed numbers divided by mixed numbers).
