Collected and adapted from the popular “Cartoon Corner” in the NCTM professional journal Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, these cartoons are designed to act as stimulus material for addressing a variety of mathematical topics in the classroom.
Each cartoon is provided together with ideas for associated questions and solutions as well as notes from teachers who field-tested the materials with their students. An opening chapter provides suggestions for integrating cartoons into classroom learning, and the collection is organised by topic.
As with other resources originating from the US, the content includes some Americanisms and imperial units. Nevertheless, there is inspiration here for those looking for a visually stimulating and different way to start a lesson.
