Roger Day Livres

Middle School series intended to bridge the gap from Elementary Mathematics to Algebra 1. The program is designed to motivate middle school students, enable them to see the usefulness of mathematics in the world around them, enhance their fluency in the language of mathematics, and prepare them for success in Algebra and Geometry.

Half a century ago Roger Day began three years of voluntary work in India and Nepal. It was an era before popular tourism came to the region. In this book he takes a fun-filled look at the good, the bad and the ugly of that time. His adventures included: Sleeping through an earthquake. Seeing an elephant fly. Having his breakfast stolen by a bird. Being caught in the middle of a militant riot. Finding and helping an abandoned child. Follow him as he describes joys and sorrows, successes and failures, triumphs and tragedies.
