[FM Discuss] Calculus by and for young people

[Edward Cherlin]

We have the offer of a set of teaching and learning materials for
calculus in elementary school. I would like to set this up as a booki
project. What needs to happen? Should I just start it myself?

I will also propose a Sugar Calculus activity to go with it, so that
we can consider this the manual for that software.

Hi Edward,
To begin with, I would like to contribute my book Calculus By and for
Young People-Worksheets (in ebook form, which is being done by a
former student, and will be ready by May). The book is in Socratic
format, asking questions leading to the different ideas, with an
answer section in each chapter. I have it on a CD now, in pdf form but
wanted to make minor changes-like my new email address, new website
address..Would anyone there like a copy of this CD? There is a list of
materials that would help, in the appendix.
I'd be willing to talk to anyone interested in seeing what can come from this.
Don
