Publisher's Description of Make Space For Geometry (Mad for Math)

Introducing Mad for Math, a new series of childrens’ activity and math workbooks filled with math activities, geometry for kids, and fun math games for kids (with 8 pages of stickers)

Let’s take a trip to space! Explore the universe with some new friends and learn about geometry basics. Blast through stars and constellations on your way to finding geometry forms and math solutions. In this Mad for Math activity book, green funny aliens help kids build their math skills and master the knowledge of shapes, formulas, and figures.

Mad for Math, math for kids books offer children's math activities and math solutions.  Presented in an engaging and motivating way through storytelling, Mad for Math books help foster a positive attitude towards mathematics. Geometry concepts are introduced by short stories that stimulate your child’s curiosity by linking mathematical exercises to a “reality”, albeit imagined. Your child will learn the basic concepts of plane geometry (points, lines, and angles), polygons, solid figures, isometries, area calculation, problem solving, and lateral thinking.

Mad for Math books are designed to delight:

  • A perfect gift for children ages 9-10
  • Packed with stories and activities that make learning geometry basics fun
  • Children are challenged with games of growing complexity, and answers are found at the end
Category Description for Mad For Math

Aptly self-described as “so much fun kids don’t realize they’re learning,” these math books are full of creative characters and rich settings. From escaping mazes to rescuing sea animals, books present storylines that students participate in by solving problems for the characters. As students engage in the story, they also engage in practicing multiplication, geometry, logical puzzles, and more. Building a positive attitude around math, these books would be a great resource for younger students struggling with math concepts or students who are visual learners.
