Calendar Numbers: Daily Prompts for Math Explorations with Children - Paperback
by Deanna Pecaski McLennan (Author)
Discover how children can engage in daily math conversations that build their confidence and abilities! Every day children in early childhood and primary classrooms explore math concepts in their conversations and interactions. You can build on that natural curiosity by engaging children in meaningful, complex math learning opportunities using regular math talks. Math talks are regular, short conversations about purposeful, layered problems with children. These are intentionally crafted to invite children into specific math situations, helping them to improve their mathematical confidence and abilities. Math talks are meant to be open-ended opportunities that have multiple entry points and approaches for interpreting and solving the problem. In this book 124 full page photos with accompanying math questions and prompts are meant to help inspire rich, open-ended math conversations with children - four pages for each numerical date of the monthly calendar (1 through 31) to ensure readers have access to multiple prompts for regular use.
Based on the experiences in her own classroom, author Deanna Pecaski McLennan has created a collection of photos and accompanying questions to help parents and educators facilitate daily math talks with children. With the information and guidance in this resource, you will develop a math-rich classroom while increasing children's interest, confidence, and success in mathematics.Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, this signature bestseller exceeds all expectations.
