(1-3)
After great success with her book Poems for Sight-Word Practice, Laureen Reynolds has created an equally appealing and highly motivating new volume--Poems for Math Practice: With 80 Skill-Building Activities. Aimed at students who love math as well as those who dread it, her book adds another dimension to the abstract nature of numbers. Using words and pictures, you`ll help children make the connection between mathematics and their everyday routines and observations.

In this innovative and creative book, you will find:

• 20 tongue-tickling, rhythm-pleasing, illustrated poems your students will love


• math practice with sorting, pattern building, adding, multiplying, graphing, number sense, fractions, place value, and more


• literature selections that reinforce the math concepts being taught


• independent, small-group, large-group, and extension activities


• 20 full-page, full-color transparencies of the poems


• 16 pages of ready-to-use, black-and-white reproducibles that save you prep time


• perforated pages that are easy to access, remove, and reproduce

So, what do whimsical rhyming verses plus confidence-building activities add up to? The answer is Poems for Math Practice--a successful math experience!
