商品簡介
Author and educator Arrowood has noted that many ESL programs do not include basic math, and most that do are not helpful in easing the confusion of converting from the metric system to American Standard Measurement. She gives a variety of practical math exercises, problems and techniques that ESL instructors can use in class, so students can learn to convert measurements while at the same time conduct daily business better in English. Examples include material from math classes and such puzzling situations as counting change or ordering food. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
