Painless Fractions, by Alyece Cummings , was written especially for
middle-school students, but can be helpful to just about everybody. The author takes a
light-hearted approach to the subject. She defines all terms, then demonstrates the
correct methods of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of fractions, and
shows how to convert them into decimals. Puns, puzzles, and "brain ticklers" add
an element of fun to the process of mastering fractions. There are answers to all
questions, and plenty of good advice for avoiding pitfalls when calculating with
fractions. 224 pages. BTH-407. $8.06-D
Painless
Geometry:
by
Lynette Long. Publisher:
Barron's Educational, 2001. 307 pages. If geometry tends to
freak you out, this book will help you understand it and even enjoy learning it.
You’ll begin to see that finding solutions to geometric problems is as much fun
as solving intriguing puzzles. And there are lots of diagrams to help you learn
the terms, theorems, and postulates that form the foundation of geometry. You’ll
learn to work with angles of all kinds, find the relationships between parallel
and perpendicular lines, and discover the characteristics of shapes such as
triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles. The abstract concepts you learn will
become more concrete with experiments you can do. And the author also gives tips
on studying and using mini-proofs as first steps to understanding formal
geometry proofs.
For grade 8 and up. BTH-409. $8.06-D
Painless Junior Math
by Margery Masters. Barron's, 2006. 198 pages. Children of about third grade and
up are encouraged to enjoy learning math -- beginning with what they already
know about telling time. They then use this knowledge of numbers for addition,
subtraction, multiplication and division. After these basics, the children will
move on to chapters on using money, measuring things with both the English and
metric systems, using geometry, and collecting and organizing data into graphs.
The last chapters lead into fractions, probability, and problem solving. This is
a cross between a workbook and a textbook, since it provides information and
instruction, but also has pages to try new skills that do not look like typical
pages of textbook exercises. Answers and index are included. Slightly larger
format than the regular Painless Series.

Math Word Problems by Marcie Abramson. Barron's Educational, 2001,
paper. 295 pages.
If seeing a
word problem makes you break out in a cold sweat, this is the book for you. It
will show you how solving these problems can actually be fun. You’ll learn to
find the patterns in word problems, and then how to compute with decimals and
fractions, compare rates, and solve proportion problems. You’ll even use real
world examples to discover surprising patterns when you analyze statistics and
maybe even use them to predict future outcomes and events. A final chapter shows
you how to search out math problems and activities available on the Internet.
