As any classroom teacher can tell you, there are discernible differences in the way girls and boys learn. This engaging, practical guide examines how girls′ unique sensory, physical, cognitive, and emotional characteristics affect their performance in the classroom, and shows you how to adapt classroom experiences to assist girls′ learning, particularly in math and science.

Inside, readers will find: Specific instructional techniques and practical applications for differentiating instruction in math and science Ways of dealing with girls′ stress Up-to-date findings on left- vs. right-brain learning, styles of learning, and math anxiety Resources, figures, and charts, as well as quizzes in each chapter that introduce the topic and challenge preconceived notions of learning differences Teach in ways that complement the female brain and give girls the best education possible!
