First thoughts July 21, 2009

I bought this because I've read a lot in the press about Singapore's success on international tests. It looks like it lives up to its expectations. It demonstrates solutions to word problems using simple drawings of rods to show the relationships of the various quatities (the way Euclid would have done it). The problems also require several steps to solve while most American textbooks need only one or two.
I plan on fully integrating this system into my 7th grade pre-algebra class by starting with the 4th grade book. I think this type of relational reasoning and number sense is what they have been missing.
