Math About Me

Here's a title that shows children math knowledge is at their fingertips, not to mention their hands, legs, and feet.

Experiences include collecting and recording information and communicating results. Concepts and skills include counting, measurement, computation, graphing, estimation, and making comparisons. How many toothbrushes' worth of toothpaste are in a tube? How many peanut butter sandwiches are in one jar of peanut butter? What can a person accomplish in "Just a minute"? There are activities to help your students answer all these questions and more. Illustrated throughout with pleasing, simple line art. Features many reproducibles. All 48 pages perforated for easy removal.
