Excellent Math Book September 22, 2009

I attend Kennesaw State University and this is a required book for my senior year in Early Childhood Education. This book gives excellent ideas for teaching math. The activities, ideas, and explanations presented in this book are well worth the money!

If you're going back and forth about getting this book--- get it. You won't be disappointed. It has SO much useful information I could replace our whole math curriculum and use this instead. The beginning of the book tells you how to set up a problem-based classroom. When I first started learning how this type of constructivist approach, I always wished that someone would just spell it out for me. How do I do a good job creating a problem-based lesson? It all seemed so fuzzy! This book does that. He explains how to be successful at using 1 big problem as a catalyst to your math instruction that day or week.
The book is then broken up into "big idea" topics and tons of games, activities, and background knowledge are given about developing place value, addition, subtraction, multiplication....
Being the nerd I am, I have carried this book around my school, giddy with excitement as I showed other teachers in my building page after page. Can you tell I just love this book?!

This book provides a great foundation for math skills grades K-3. I consult this resource for nearly every math lesson I teach. This book supplements what other textbooks take for granted or leave out. I highly recommend this book!

I really like this book as a source for conceptual Math activities. I recommend purchasing only 1 either K-2, 3-5, depending on which you think you would use more. They overlap alot.
