Build Essential Mathematics Concepts and Skills with Children's Literature
You've always known literature opens new worlds. Now use stories to open the world of mathematics. Developed by one of America's leading math educators, The Marilyn Burns Classroom Math Libraries help build essential math concepts and skills students need while providing teachers the instructional support necessary to effectively teach math.
Every library features award-winning, classic, and contemporary titles that captivate and motivate children while serving as a springboard for math instruction. A detailed lesson plan written by Marilyn Burns for each title introduces and addresses grade-level appropriate mathematics topics that are the core of any mathematics curriculum making instruction meaningful and engaging for both teachers and students.
Each math lesson:
- aligns to math standards
- addresses grade-level appropriate math topics
- identifies the connection to your math curriculum
- provides a summary about the book and the math lesson
- contains detailed instructional strategies for teaching mathematics and includes follow-up math lesson extensions
