Features & Benefits:" A Whale of a Tale: Dive into Math 3"
is an interactive Mathematics multimedia program designed
to provide an integrated fun approach to learning
mathematics for the student. It incorporates a
combination of tutorial, discovery, drill, and practice
learning strategies and techniques. Remedial and
enrichment activities are integral components of the
program. Sophia the Lobster introduces thirteen
"Just for Fun" games while Jerry the
Jellyfish offers twenty pieces of
whale trivia for the student to read and listen to.
"Dive into Math 3" is
divided into five sections:
1. Geometry
2. Math Fair
3. Add and Subtract
4. Multiply and
Divide
5. Just for Fun
- Geometry: Percy
the Penguin teaches children how to calculate the
perimeter of several objects and how to find the
area of a square and rectangle. Rocky Barnacle
plays with geometric figures making them flip,
slide and rotate.Winnie the Dolphin investigates
symmetry.
- Math Fair: Little
Blue shows children the purpose for and how to
make graphs. Oscar the Octopus tells Cedric about
fractions as part of a whole and part of a set or
collection. He uses a half, third, fourth, fifth,
sixth, and tenth to tell about fractions. Jerry
the Jellyfish teaches children to read whole
numbers, demonstrate an understanding of place
value to four places, and develop the concept of
zero in numbers.
- Add and Subtract: Little
Blue learns to add and subtract large numbers
with and without regrouping ( three digit
numbers).Samantha the Sea Horse teaches Percy the
Penguin to order and compare decimal numbers to
tenths.
- Multiply and Divide:
Little Blue learns how to nultiply and divide
whole numbers by recognizing several meaning for
multiplication and division. Little Blue and
Cedric the Starfish learn how to represent
mathematical relationships using open sentences
(multiplication and division).
