Hope's Books-Mathathematic Workbooks for Elementary, Middle School, and High School Teachers that integrate Hands-on, Motivating Activities with Skills and Concepts reflecting the new Standards!

Doesn't it appear we are locked into a world of shopkeeper arithmetic from the horse-and-buggy era just as the world seems to be moving at the speed of light? Work with Hope Martin to design a workshop that integrates the best mathematics from the past with the mathematical needs of the new millennium.

Hope Martin has over 30 years of experience teaching mathematics at the primary, elementary, middle school, and college levels. Explore this web-site and discover the books she has authored. These books bring hands-on, active learning to the mathematics classroom. Her books encourage integrating mathematics across the curriculum and applying the cognitive theories of Howard Gardener's, Multiple Intelligences, into mathematics pedagogy.

Collaborate with Hope to enliven mathematics instruction in your district! Workshops are tailored to meet the needs of teachers at three levels of instruction: Primary, Elementary, and Middle School/High School Levels. Any of these workshops can be tied to the mathematics goals and objectives developed by your district's math committees.

NOTE: All workshops can be designed as

one-day (5 hours) or two-day (10 hours) workshops.
