Customer Reviews

Good Resource

I love how this book shows a teacher how to use literature to teach math concepts. My students love the lessons I have done from this book. The book includes many lessons for all math concepts for the K-3 classroom. There are blackline masters that accompany each lesson. Super!

Good Book for Math Activities

This book is an excellent resource for elementary math teachers. This book allows you to be creative with using children's literature in every day math classes. From using children's literature counting books to using a Dr. Seuss Book to teacher elementary geometry, this book is an excellent resource.

The Best book on the topic I've found

The best book in working through the Math Standards that I have seen.
