Topics in Mathematics for the 10th Grade

This series, "Mathematics for the High School," in mathematics was specifically designed with math teachers in mind. Not only are the books a useful resource for gaining familiarity with teaching approaches used in a Waldorf school, but they are also a source of inspiration – offering fresh perspectives and new insight – for course that have perhaps been taught many times.  This book contains experienced teachers' suggestions for lesson blocks covering topics taught in the 10th grade in the Waldorf curriculum.  - Sine, Cosine, and tangent  - 10th grade trigonometry  - Surveying in the 10th grade  - Higher calculations  - Logarithms and logarithmic spirals  - Pascal's triangle and related geometry  - Numerical relationships in music  - The method of resection  The material is not only described theoretically, but includes many examples, exercises and "hands-on" hints for the lessons. Some information about the historical background of the major themes rounds out many of the contribution
