Imagine your students tackling math word problems drawn from the extreme sports of polar ice swimming, scuba diving, and adventure racing. World champion athletes (like Erik Weihenmeyer, the first blind man to climb Mount Everest) present real math problems they face while scaling peaks, hang gliding off cliffs, kayaking over waterfalls, riding raging bulls, and plunging down steep cliffs on mountain bikes. Taught by the athletes, using basic multiplication, division, fractions, and percentages, your students will figure out that math is essential even in the world of extreme sports . . . and it can be fun! Activities include: Polar bear swimmers: How many strokes will it take us to swim across this hole in the ice? Master skydiver: How many miles have we fallen so far? Master scuba divers: How long will our air tanks last at 99 feet under water? World champion kayaker: How tall is this waterfall, anyway? High school rodeo champion: How much money do I get if I win? World champion adventure racer: How many calories do we need to pack for a 6-day race across glaciers, arid peaks, thick brush, and mangrove swamps? Master hang glider: How do you get this thing to go down? Like the authors' previous book, the best-selling Real Life Math Mysteries, the word problems in this book are real, alive, and clearly focused. Each problem is provided on a reproducible handout and includes problem-solving suggestions with a comprehensive answer key. Many of the athletes share their thoughts and encouragement to study hard in school. All activities are tied to the standards established by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.

The Math Mysteries series was designed to encourage students to think like math detectives, using clues to solve problems. These four different types of activities are found in each book: story-based mysteries, activities that discover the mysteries found in mathematics, rhyming riddles, and "crack-the-code" problems. All activities are identified in the table of contents with the NCTM standards. Activities integrate problem-solving with numbers and operations and can be used in a variety of ways. The forty engaging activities can be assigned individually, in pairs, as small group assignments, or can be solved together by the whole class. Students are also challenged to create their own math mysteries for others to solve. As students begin to think and write mathematically, they will enjoy the challenge found in each activity
