The author uses Stella the Spider as the main character in a number of three-dimensional geometry problems. Eight of these problems are discussed, with solutions. (MNS)

The estimation strategies of "using compatible numbers,""averaging," and "rounding" are used. The first two worksheets review easy arithmetic facts and ask students to identify compatible numbers. Worksheet Three introduces averaging and provides practice with rounding, while the fourth worksheet contains problems for group practice. (MNS)

Four worksheets are presented, each using cubes to develop students' spatial visualization abilities. Directions and answer keys are both included. (MNS)

Four activities with fractions are given, concerning recognizing halves, making equal sized pieces, completing the whole, and making congruent parts. Worksheets as well as teaching suggestions are included. (MNS)

Geometrical probability deals with probability on infinite sample spaces where each outcome of an experiment is equally likely to occur. Geometry which identifies sample space regions and event subregions leads to a method of finding a desired probability. A collection of problems with solutions is presented. (MP)
