Have You Read Any Good Math Lately?

Description

One way to present math to children is through a story: cooking pancakes, selling hats, or weighing elephants. We will discuss some of the best old and new children's books containing a math subtext, and their possible uses. We will discuss possible questions and rubrics used to assess them, including reading, multicultural, and diversity concerns.
