Book Review

One of my goals my first year of teaching Kindergarten was to enhance my math curriculum.  One way I found to do that was by doing read alouds to start some of my lessons.  It's a great way to combine math and reading and my kids always love it. 
   Today we read Leaping Lizards from the Math Start 1 series by Stuart Murphy.

 We have been practicing skip counting and this book counts by 5's and 10's to 50's.  We counted by 5's by giving high 5's, we have done funny voices as we count by 10's and today we counted lizards by 5's and 10's as we read this book.

If you haven't checked out the Math Start series check it out.  My library has many from the series or you can find it here on Amazon.
