Review # 1 was written on 2015-12-17 00:00:00 Riki Rikardi One Some Many By Marthe Jocelyn Illustrated by Tom Slaughter Where's the Math? This is a book about providing terms for naming quantities of objects. It also is a book that can be read by emerging readers. Children will gain understanding of everyday descriptive terms used for quantity such as "few" "many" or "some" The bold pictures and text display the concepts in an engaging and playful way (i.e. a few is three, or four, or more). The book also includes addition problems such as "plus one is six then seven" - these are all words that children will be hearing as they grow older, and the pictures provide attractive support so that children can understand the concepts. This book would also be specifically helpful for English language learners. Genre: Concept/Picture Book Features of Print: Matisse-inspired paper cuts. Bold, large text Cultural Considerations: Any Open-ended Question: Can you think of many things we have in this classroom? What's a few things you have at home? Extension Activity: Children could participate in a few/many/some game where the teacher helps one specific child call on "some children, many children, a few children, or maybe a simple addition problem by using their classmates as they stand together in a circle. For example, a child could say: I need [5 different children's names] to get in the middle of the circle. Now I need [child's name] to enter the circle. What's my problem? Then other children could guess. Children could do the same with different objects as well.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-12-16 00:00:00 Thomas Koch This book is very simple. It is most appropriate for k-1st. It uses simple pisture to show how much is one, some many, a couple, a few, ect. It may also be a good review towards the end of 1st grade before you introduce other "higher" math terms like largest, smallest, greater, more than, less than, ect.
