This artful volume extends beyond the traditional concern for reading word problems and math textbooks to consider how reading can support inquiry-oriented mathematics instruction.

Detailed narratives of classroom experiences illustrate these perspectives and show the range of strategies teachers can use to enrich students' understanding of mathematical concepts.
