"The Teacher to Teacher yellow binders that targeted the EALRs and GLEs were very good, but Making Sense of Problem Solving is outstanding. It is much deeper and more thorough in content and has effective instructional suggestions in every unit.

"Making Sense of Problem Solving fills the void found in typical core programs in that it provides fun and engaging open-ended problem solving experiences that foster deep mathematical thinking, conceptual understanding, and powerful discourse about mathematical ideas."
