Hands-on Trigonometry Proofs
7-12 This set contains four separate “proofs”
of trigonometry relations, with examples
of a Pythagorean identity, a sum formula, a
double-angle formula, and two sum-to-product
formulas. Demonstation of each relation
is accomplished by physically rearranging
the pieces to establish equalities of areas or
lengths. These are not rigorous mathematical
proofs, but rather visual common-sense
proofs. As such, they help make these abstract
relationships real and believable. By actually
handling the pieces, students engage their
minds to a greater degree than they would
by merely looking at the proofs on paper.
The colour instructions describe how each
proof is demonstrated, and four reproducible
worksheets reinforce the material. Contains 20
magnetic foam pieces.

Deci-Blocks™ are designed to extend
the mathematical value of Pattern
Blocks. This compatibility enables
students to do many more tasks than are
possible with Pattern Blocks alone.
The Pattern Block Shapes
The Deci-Blocks™ can be utilized to
deepen students’ logic and reasoning
to understand the many areas of
Mathematics.
The Deci-Blocks™ combined with the
Pattern Blocks can be utilized to
represent all the Fractions that are
needed. This is clearly one of the
strengths of the Deci-Blocks™.
The Next Generation of Pattern Blocks
(Deci-Blocks™)
Examples of Mathematical topics
when working with Deci-Blocks™
and Pattern Blocks:
•Modeling Fraction Relationships
•Solving Algebraic Equations
and Balance Scales
•Balance Equations
and Augmented Matrices
•Systems of Equations
from a Geometric Perspective
•Polygon Congruencies
•Transformations
•Angle Measurements
•Probability Applications
We recommend that students have access to both regular pattern blocks and Deci-Blocks™ when working with our Deci-Blocks™ set as listed on page 24.

Balance Benders™
Four-Pan Algebra Balance
9-12 Unlike any other balance,
this one makes it possible to
physically show that -1 < 0. Weights
placed on the outer pans represent
negative integers and those placed in the
inner pans represent positive integers. When you place a weight in each pan on one side of the centre post, the
balance remains level as (-1) + (+1) = 0. Ideal for small group work, this sturdy 42.5 cm balance comes with four
plastic pans, four canisters, a set of plastic weights, and a teacher’s booklet.
203200 - $53.95
Students develop deductive thinking and pre-algebra

Algebraic Thinking
Alge-Tiles™
The lengths of the rectangular xtile and
ytile are not an integral number of 1tiles.
Similarly, the bases and heights of the
x2tile, the y2tile, and the xytile are not
an integral number of 1tiles. This is not a
construction defect, but is done deliberately
to guarantee uniqueness when students
use the tiles for factoring. Have the students
discover this feature before you being the
algebra unit.
The Algebraic concepts covered:
• Ratios
• Factoring
• Integers
• Solving Equations
• Polynomials

Developing Algebraic Thinking
Why use
The Algebra Game?
Because everyone who plays wins! Here’s
how students and educators alike will
benefit from The Algebra Game
Students will...
4 recognize connections between
different card features
4 understand how cards relate and
write about those relationships
4 build conjectures to support
observations
4 improve problem-solving skills
4 develop proficiency in recognizin
algebraic equations
Linear Graphs Card Set
Students can make sense of linear
equations by matching slope and
y-intercept cards. They will quickly grasp
the interconnections between cards and
how the distinct parts – graphs, point, pair,
slope, and y intercept – fit together wit
equations. All decks used together provide a
greater variety of parallel and perpendicular
line pairs for extra practice or added
challenge. Contains 5 decks of 60 cards
each, including 12 graphs with 5 matching
components for each graph, plus a 60-page
teacher manual.
204028 - $157.50
Quadratic Equations Card Set
Teachers and tutors will...
The quadratic formula is demystified a
students piece together and match up the
various parts – vertex, axis of symmetry,
discriminant and quadratic formula. The
goal is to match these cards to the factor,
root, point pair, and graph cards to discover
the connections to the quadratic equation.
All decks have a sampling of non-function
parabolas and include several parabolas that
are in translated positions. Contains 8 decks
of 60 cards each, including 12 graphs with 6
matching components for each graph, plus a
60-page teacher manual.
205816 - $225.95
4 encourage cooperative learning
4 gain additional ways to assess
student achievement
4 save time with ready-to-go lessons
and worksheets
4 be able to accommodate different
learning styles
4 help students actively build
knowledge with understanding
Conic Sections Card Set
By using all of the conic section decks together,
students become proficient at recognizing coni
equation characteristics for circles, parabolas,
ellipses and hyper-bolas. When each deck is
used separately, Algebra Game players can study
equation and graph characteristics – including
foci, eccentricity, point pair, and standard form
rotation – in greater depth. All of the decks have
three examples of conic equations with translated
origins. Contains 5 decks of 60 cards each,
including 12 graphs with 5 matching components
for each graph, plus a 70-page teacher manual.
205818 - $157.50
Trig Functions Card Set
All three trig functions – sine, cosine and tangent
– and their reciprocals have matching graphs,
point pairs, and equations. Clues about a graph’s
amplitude and period are imbedded in equations
so students learn how the equation effects the
related graph. Contains 4 decks of 60 cards each,
including 12 graphs with 5 matching components
for each graph, plus a 64-page teacher manual.
205820 - $135.00

Solving With Pythagoras Set
Use the Solving With Pythagoras card decks
and teacher manual and have your students
making relational decisions about triangles
within minutes!
Deck of Cards
Students classify and compare triangles cards
to learn about side and angle relationships.
There are 8 sets of 6 similar right triangles
and 8 more cards have triangles with variables
(total of 64 cards). Students can figure out th
value of x that would make the triangle similar
to one of the other sets. Five cards are NOT
triangles and 3 triangles are not right triangles.
The discussions initiated by these cards
significantly increase retention
Teacher Manual
The activities support high school topics and go
with any textbook lessons for similarity
proportions, the Pythagorean Theorem, trig
ratios, triangles in regular polygons, plus area
and perimeter. Blank activity card templates
and mats let teachers write their own
directions for lessons. 62 pages.

Circular Measurement
A circle is a simple shape in Euclidean
geometry. It is the set of all points in a
plane that are at a given distance from
a given point, the centre; equivalently
it is a curve traced out by a point that
moves so that its distance from a given
point is constant. The distance between
any of the points and the centre is
called the radius.
