All Matters of Math by Canaa

Thanks for Visiting!

 

My name is Canaa Lee, and I am proud to announce that my dream of becoming an author has finally come true! My first book, Algebra for the Urban Student is the first algebra book that was written for the typical math student.  Math books are written for people who love and understand the jargon.  From my experience as a high school teacher, most students dislike mathematics because it has always been difficult for them and they have never been good at it.  

 

Algebra for the Urban Student is a book that is written in the language that I use to personalize my classroom.  I have interjected my personality in my book to guide my students through their assignments in class.  Now, when students leave my classroom, it is as if they have taken me home with them to help complete their assignments. 

 

The chapters in Algebra for the Urban Student illustrate a significant algebra concept, such as solving linear equations and inequalities and finding the slope of a line.  Then, the chapter includes homework assignment that provides students with the opportunity to “demonstrate your understanding.”  In addition, there are real life projects for both algebra and geometry, grading rubrics for whole and small class discussions.  Furthermore, there are algebra 2 lessons that utilize the graphing calculator and takes the pain out of learning upper lever algebra.  

 

This is just the first.  I am writing the sequel to Algebra for the Urban Student.  I anticipate its release in August 2012!  You can purchase Algebra for the Urban Student today!
