Elements of Numbersense

[Englandude]

I just heard about a book called Elements of Numbersense. Does anyone know of this book? If anyone does, is it a good tool to sharpen numbersense skills? Where can i get the book from?

Thanks

Ummm, it's not ment for grades 4-8. I edited the book, and included things from White tests up to 2003. Deriving tricks is probably the best way, but resources can't hurt if you want to compare your tricks to a book. You can order it from Andy Zapata for $20 I think.

Okay apparently, there's "The Elements of Number Sense" by Doug Ray and "Number Sense: Elements of Number Sense" by Jim Cummings.

I at least know the Jim Cummings version is high school level.

Here's an element! You must learn Latex! Especially since I endeavored to learn it, not typical of a lazy guy like me on summer break.
