Great idea for the doorways of math classrooms!
If your floor can handle it, what a great way to teach the degrees in angles!

Customer question of the week

Tracy asks: Hope this email finds you doing well. Last year I ordered item #1001 the Rocket Math CD. I would like to order one more. I can't find this on the website. Is this something we are still able to purchase?

Dr. Don answers:

Hello Tracy,

Yes, I am well, thanks. Hope you're looking forward to this school year.

We changed our business model on June 1st. Instead of the $65 to $95 cost for a CD or a download file we are offering a $29 subscription (item #2000) to get the four basic operations. It is an annual fee. The subscription access gives you all the same 400 pages, but laid out in an easy-to-see and easy-to-use format. We also improved the pages in 2015, as a number of people let us know that the 2013 black-on-gray format was hard to copy and used a lot of ink. (See the picture above). All the other programs I have made since including Rocket Writing for Numerals, Factors, Skip Counting, Integers, etc are included for $20 more as item #2001 the Universal subscription for $49), which just happens to be the minimum amount for a purchase order.

Thanks for being a Rocket Math user! Oh, any teacher who has Rocket Math (either their own or their school's lifetime license) is able to purchase the subscription for $25 off by using the coupon code "IhaveaLifetimeLicense" when they order (see below). That would bring the cost of the basic subscription access down to $4 for someone who already had purchased a lifetime license.

We trust you and rely on your honor. If you previously purchased a lifetime license (or your school did), use this coupon code to access a Rocket Math Basic subscription for only $4 for the year.

What's new with Rocket Math?

Teaching Integers with rules.

The Rocket Math Integers program teaches students a systematic way to solve these difficult problems.
Here's how they practice: Begin by reading the problem.
Step 1: Determine the starting number, mark it.
Step 2: Identify which of the four processes is happening in this problem:
Adding a positive, subtracting a positive, subtracting a negative or adding a negative.
Step 3: The student should say the right rule that applies to the process.
Rule 1: Go up when you add a positive number OR subtract a negative number.
Rule 2: Go down when you subtract a positive OR add a negative number.
Step 4: Determine whether to go up or down on the number line.
Step 5: Determine how far and make the bumps from the starting number going in the right direction the right number of bumps.

Finally, the student should look at where he/she ended up on the number line and fill in the answer to the problem.

BLOG OF THE WEEK

THIS WEEK:
How to get parents to help you.

If students practice math facts a couple of times a day throughout the year, they will never forget them! Parents will help you if you give them the tools, which you can easily do with Rocket Math. Start with a letter to parents telling them what you are doing. We have included a two page parent letter from Dr. Don on our subscription website. We also have a one-page letter in Word that you can edit and make your own. The letter is a good start for parents to know how to practice.
