Description

As the math education crisis in this country continues to make headlines, research continues to prove that it is in middle school when math scores begin to drop - especially for girls - in large part due to the relentless social conditioning that tells girls they can t do math, and that math is uncool. Young girls today need strong female role models to embrace the idea that its okay to be smart! Its Danica McKellars mission to be this role model, and demonstrate on a large scale that math doesnt suck. In this fun and accessible guide, McKellar - dubbed a math superstar by The New York Times - gives girls and their parents the tools they need to master the math concepts that confuse middle - schoolers most, including fractions, percentages, pre-algebra, and more. The book features hip, real-world examples, step-by-step instruction, and engaging stories of Danicas own childhood struggles in math (and stardom). It even includes a Math Horoscope section, Math Personality Quizz
