Marvelous Math

This book allows you to incorporate Reading into the Math curriculum. The book is filled with poems that can be used to help children become more comfortable with Math as they learn about Poetry. I have found several poems in this book that can be used in a fun way in my Math program. This purchase was NOT a dissappointment.

Wow. Poetry about math. And it's fun! Every classroom should have a copy of this book. It's a teacher's treasure!

A must for all intermediate elementary and math teachers!

"Marvelous Math" is a wonderful way to connect mathematics to communication arts. This book of math poetry shows children how math is readily used in one's daily life. The colorful illustrations help keep the children intersted. It has given my students the enthusiasm for trying to write some poems about math also. This is great for home and also as a teaching tool.
