***1/2
(2009) 26 min. DVD: $49.98. Cerebellum Corporation. PPR. ISBN: 1-58565-242-3.
From the creators of the highly-rated Arithmetic modular series for elementary-level math (VL-7/09), this entry in the similarly excellent seven-part Fundamental Mathematics series for middle-school students explores basic operations relating to fractions and decimals through the use of fun animation, informative onscreen graphics, and clever sound effects. Hosted by a multicultural group of energetic teens, this fast-paced and often humorous program teaches students how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions and decimals. Some of the concepts involved are potentially confusing (such as non-terminating, non-repeating decimals), but the logical progression of ideas presented here effectively illustrates how the relevant math actually works. Accompanying curriculum material includes a digital workbook, teacher’s guides, classroom notes, quizzes, games, and discussion questions. The other titles in the series are: Beyond Multiplication & Division; Measurements, Ratios, & Percents; Angles, Polygons & Circles; Coordinate Geometry; Gathering & Understanding Data; and Problem-Solving Skills. Highly recommended. Aud: I, J, P. (E. Gieschen)

From the creators of the highly-acclaimed Standard Deviants education series, this third volume in the comprehensive nine-module Arithmetic set covering elementary mathematics is devoted to the subject of whole-number multiplication. Featuring young hosts, fun sound effects, interesting graphics, and a sense of humor (always welcome in math instruction), takes viewers through multiplication basics, multiplying bigger numbers, solving word problems, understanding the distributive property, and using a calculator. Briskly paced but easy to follow, this fine instructional program also features accompanying curriculum that is both thorough and useful. The other titles in the series are: Multiplying Whole NumbersWhole Numbers & The Number Line, Addition & Subtraction, Dividing Whole Numbers, Understanding Decimals, Understanding Fractions, Measurement, Patterns & Graphs and Lines, Shapes & Sizes. Highly recommended. Aud: E, I, P. (E. Gieschen)
