While I was cleaning out some of the books we used years ago, I came across the following:
Math Curse
by Jon Scieszka + Lane Smith
Cute book relating math to everyday life... Start with the teacher stating "You know, you can think of almost everything as a math problem."
Hardcover book in very good condition but with a gift inscription on the first page (the blank page before the title page... the one facing the front cover).
Asking $7.50 ppd
Family Math
by Jean Kerr Stenmark, Virginia Thompson and Ruth Cossey
Illustrated by Marilyn Hill
Paperback book in very good condition. Full of lots of great games. Says it's for ages 5 to 12 but my son more or less lost interest in the games at around age 10.
Asking $7.50 ppd
Vroot and Vroom (Singapore math cd-rom)
Windows 95/98/ME/XP (Will not run on Mac)
Brand new, still sealed in the shrinkwrap
Asking $25 ppd
Superific Science Series: Book VII - Oceanography
by Lorraine Conway
Illustrated by Linda Akins
A Good Apple Science Activity Book for Grades 5-8+
Paperback book in very good condition. Awesome book for junior high-aged kids who are interested in Oceanography. Just didn't hold my son's interest. Topics include: Ocean Currents, Latitude and Longitude, Salt from Seawater, Waves, Measuring Ocean Depths and Speed, Tides, Nautical Terms, The Mystery of the Mary Celeste, Icebergs, Buoys, Making a Simple Periscope, Careers in Oceanography, Sailors' Jargon, Endangered Species, and more
Asking $5 ppd
From Butterflies to Thunderbolts: Discovering Science with Books Kids Love
by Anthony D. Fredericks
Illustrated by Rebecca N. Fredericks
Uses "award-winning and beloved informational storybooks" to learn about science. Covers topics such as animals, plants, the environment, dinosaurs, the earth, oceans, weather, and space. This was one of our favorite resource books and through it we discovered so many great books on science. Geared towards elementary/early-elementary but depends a lot on your kid. My son still, at age 14, enjoys turning to some of the books we found through From Butterflies to Thunderbolts.
Paperback book in excellent condition.
Asking $10 ppd
If you think my prices are too high, please feel free to make me an offer. Prices include Media Mail shipping with Delivery Confirmation to US addresses only. I will gladly combine items to save us both on shipping so please look at my other posts. I prefer payment via PayPal (any kind) but will accept a check, money order or well-concealed cash.
Thanks,
