Fortunately, this innovative, groundbreaking text will help you creatively connect two of the most valued and tested content areas in our schools while working within the constraints of your already busy schedule. Gone are the curricular barriers that have long separated elementary math and literacy instruction! Literacy + Math demonstrates how standards from both areas can be simultaneously introduced, understood, and reinforced through engaging lessons. Connecting these content areas and allowing children to see these connections will make your instruction twice as likely to stick, foster students real-world connections to their learning, and allow you to meet the common instructional goals shared by both areas.
Chapters are filled with hands-on, math-focused activities organized around reading, writing, oral language, and visual literacy skills. Classroom samples from all grade levels K-6 are interspersed throughout the book to demonstrate students abilities and learning.
