A Maths Dictionary for Kids - Updated for 2010

I've written about Jenny Eather's A Maths Dictionary for Kids in the past. Last night I learned that A Maths Dictionary for Kids has been updated for 2010 to include more terms, definitions, and visual aids than ever before. A Maths Dictionary for Kids provides simple and clear definitions of math terms. Each definition includes a small diagram or simple activity to illustrate the term's definition. A Maths Dictionary for Kids does not have a search option, but it doesn't need one as all definitions appear alphabetically just like in a physical dictionary. Below you will see how the definition for least common denominator is explained.
















Applications for Education

The visual clues provided by in the dictionary are useful for students who struggle to visualize the meaning of a math term. An activity that math teachers could do with student related to A Maths Dictionary for Kids would be to have students review a few selected terms then create their own visual depiction of math terms to display in the classroom or online.
