If the names Gordon and Earnhardt mean more to your students than Pythagoras, if Ferraris and funny cars get their motors running, this is the book for you. Your students will practice their math skills while learning cool stuff about the world of car racing. They'll calculate tongue weights for safely towing racecars, determine how much time a driver wearing a fire-resistant suit has before flames blister his or her skin, and convert measurements to metric units for international racing. Activities and projects cover addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, decimals, ratios, averaging, charts and graphs, geometry, and interpreting data.
It's easy to motivate middle school students to enrich, review, or reinforce their math skills with Racing Math. The perforated, reproducible pages are great for individual or classroom work. Answers provided.

Reviews
Review By: Beth Lazerick,   The Statistics Teacher Network - October 26, 2006

Baseball Math, Football Math, and Racing Math are paperbound books that contain multiple activities and projects that will challenge students in grades 4-8 to use computational skills as well as data analysis and probability concepts. Each book uses a different sport as background for the activities and students are more likely to become actively engaged in learning if the subject matter is of interest to them. Much of the material and many of the activities could easily be adapted for younger or older students. Activities include many opportunities to use and interpret data from graphs and charts. Many projects require long-term exploration of real data from news media and/or the Internet. Teachers will find these books include motivating material that will entice some of the more reluctant mathematicians because of the subject matter.
