Math in the City (Paperback)

Description

Math is everywhere — even in the city! The city is a busy place. It's filled with cars, buildings, crowds, and... math! This 24-page photo-filled book will help young readers notice taller and shorter buildings, tell time with train arrivals, find shapes in homes and streets, and more, Math in the City will get young readers to notice what other math is hiding on their path!

This fun and unique Math on My Path series encourages beginning readers to notice early math concepts in familiar places. Open-ended prompts accompany vivid photos of kid-friendly places including the park, the library, and more. In "I Spy" fashion, readers are invited to observe each photo closely to find and discuss ways to apply math in the real world: counting, sorting, addition and subtraction, recognizing shapes, and more. Includes a photo glossary, an after reading activity, and a hands-on activity that helps readers apply what they learned.
