Synopsis
Integrate reading and mathematics while encouraging young students to think and express themselves creatively! This series provides math practice through reproducible, field-tested word problems -- one for each day of the year -- that children "solve" by drawing a picture. Many problems have multiple solution strategies. Skills are developmental (a chart of math skills and key phonic elements identifies the sequence), and problems may be tailored for individual students' needs. The books are designed for easy integration into your current mathematics and reading programs. Target phonic elements and vocabulary words can be tied to the math concept of the day. In the Animal Book (grades K-3), all word problems have an animal art theme.
