Wiley (Science for Every Kid Series); 1994; 9780471311416; Copertina flessibile ; 23 x 15,5 cm; pp. 221; Volume illustrato in b./n.; Presenta minimi segni d’uso ai bordi (piccole imperfezioni), interno senza scritte; Molto buono, (come da foto). ; – How do you fold a sheet of paper into the shape of a whale? – How do you measure the area of a pizza pie? – How can you draw a circle within a circle without lifting your pencil from the paper? Now you can discover the answers to these and other fascinating questions in Geometry for Every Kid—a fun-filled introduction to elementary geometry and the study of shapes. Packed with illustrations, this book uses simple problems and hands-on activities to teach concepts such as acute and obtuse angles, parallel and perpendicular lines, plane and solid figures, and much more. By arranging the pieces of a Chinese puzzle called a tangram, you’ll explore all the different shapes you can form. You’ll also learn how to create a colorful 3D drawing that seems to rise right off the page. And by building a geoboard, you’ll uncover a quick and exciting way to compare the area of various geometric figures. Each activity is carefully laid out with its purpose, a list of materials, step-by-step instructions, expected results, and a clear, easy-to-understand explanation. Every project has been pre-tested and can be performed safely and inexpensively—whether in the classroom or at home. ; L’immagine se disponibile, corrisponde alla copia in vendita.
