Focus of Presentation
Think "out of the box" in a math classroom setting. Use 19 presentation & note taking styles in arithmetic, geometry, pre-algebra, & algebra. Examine Napier's Bones, slide rules, abacus & counting boards. Do some curve-shifting, inverse taking, trig, hypothesis testing, a little Calc I, and no Calc II, III, or Linear algebra.
