The authors address how to craft rich and effective daily lesson plans, and how to use a variety of instructional tools and strategies to reach all students in a classroom. Problem solving is a key focus from its instructional underpinnings to its recreational and motivational aspects. The second part of the text provides mathematics teachers with a collection of enrichment units appropriate for the entire secondary school curriculum spectrum.
