"A must-have for anyone concerned with today's middle school mathematics education. The authors give outstanding, hands-on, and technologically appropriate activities that support the instruction of the CCSS standards." --PAT MOWER, associate professor, Department of Mathematics and Statistics, Washburn University, Kansas "Once again the Muschla writing team has produced a timely, comprehensive, resource book for teachers. Activities provide reinforcement and enrichment of concepts and skills already introduced and developed in the classroom, and the authors skillfully stress oral and written communication among students, along with the use of instructional web sites and real-world applications." --FRANCES M.
