This book's activities highlight the important cycle of exploration, conjecture, and justification in all five mathematical strands. Students recognize patterns and make conjectures, learn the value of a counterexample, explore the strengths and weaknesses of visual proofs, discover the power of algebraic representations, and learn that theoretical approaches can substantiate empirical results. The supplemental CD-ROM features interactive electronic activities, master copies of activity pages for students, and additional readings for teachers.
