Numbers and Stories: Using Children's Literature to Teach Young Children Number Sense
Autor Rita C. Janes, Elizabeth L. Strongen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 iun 2014
Math and reading go hand in hand, especially among young children who are new to both. If you’re looking for a way to build number sense and reading skills at the very same time, rely on this indispensable resource. Using children’s books as a springboard for learning, it provides 22 detailed lessons, all ready for immediate implementation.
The authors--one an internationally respected Mathematics professional development consultant, the other a language arts specialist--provides ideas and support to combine children’s literature with meaningful mathematical learning experiences. The book includes:
- 22 interactive, research-based investigations with detailed instructional suggestions and problem-solving tasks
- High-quality children’s book selections
- Reflection and discussion questions and prompts for both teachers and students
- Children’s work pages and formative assessment tools
- An online facilitator’s guide

Recenzii
“This a great topic. With the push for application of math concepts to prepare for Common Core, this text will be a useful resource for teachers.”
“Teachers will find that this book enhances their math programs aligning problem solving to the Common Core. It provides teachers the opportunity to “dig deeper” into the number sense math content, which is the basis of the Common Core.”
“This book is unique in that it provides specific lessons and activities for specific books in children’s literature.”
“The ready to teach lessons, proposed activities, researched-based strategies and techniques would be a welcome asset to teachers.”
