The Warlord's Puppeteers
While travelling back to the Warlord's palace in ancient China, Chuan and his mentor journey across the desert with a troupe of puppeteers. An attack by bandits leaves the performers without their marionettes. Using a melon, Chuan fashions a crude, disproportionate puppet in an attempt to help his new friends. With his mentor's guidance, concepts of ratio and proportion are learned. Subsequent created puppets adhere to the Chinese art proportions of a ratio of one to six for the head to the body. This fourth book in the Warlord Series presents an authentic application of ratio and proportion concepts.

Multiplication the Algebra Way: Activities Integrating Math and Science
This resource begins with the concept of how to understand two-digit multiplication. Numerous activities have the students explore compound areas created by base 10 blocks to determine the component areas, total areas and dimensions of both. Over a series of activities, these three ideas are related to two-digit multiplication, and the distributive property. Later activities expand these ideas into decimal fractions, fractions and algebraic situations, including the factoring of quadratic expressions. Each activity promotes a deeper understanding of multiplication without placing emphasis on drill, memorization or formulas.
