Inhaltsangabe

Learn how to use children’s literature to engage students in mathematical problem solving. Teaching with children’s literature helps build a positive math environment, encourages students to think abstractly, shows students the real-world purposes of math, builds content-area literacy, and appeals to students with different learning styles and preferences. This practical book provides specific children’s book ideas and standards-based lessons that you can use to bring math alive in your own classroom.

Special Features:

• Step-by-step ideas for using children’s literature to teach lessons based on the Common Core Standards for Mathematical Content in kindergarten, first, and second grade
• Scripting, modeling, and discussion prompts for each lesson
• Information on alignment to the Standards for Mathematical Practice and how to put them into student-friendly language
• Reference to a wide variety of specific children’s literature that can provide a context for young children learning to engage in the standards
• Differentiated activities for students who are early, developing, and advanced problem solvers
