Mathematizing Children's Literature : Sparking Connections, Joy, and Wonder Through Read-Alouds and Discussion PDF
by Allison Hintz, Antony T. Smith
Description
Many teachers use traditional counting and shape books in math class.
But what would happen if we approached any story with a math lens?
How might mathematizing children's literature give learners space to ask their own questions, and make connections between stories, their lives, and the world around them?
These are the questions authors Allison Hintz and Antony T.
Smith set out to explore in Mathematizing Children's Literature: Sparking Connections, Joy, and Wonder Through Read-Alouds and Discussion as they invite us to consider fresh ways of using interactive read-alouds to nurture students as both readers and mathematicians. Inside Mathematizing Children's Literature, you'll learn how to do the following:Select picture books according to the goals of the read aloud experiencePlan and facilitate three styles of read aloud discussions - Open Notice and Wonder, Math Lens, and Story Explore Utilize Idea Investigations - experiences that invite students to pursue literacy and math-focused ideas beyond the pages of the read aloudConnect with students' families and communities through storiesAlong the way, Hintz and Smith provide a wide range of picture book suggestions and appendices that include ready-to-use lesson planning templates, a form for notes, and a bookmark of guiding questions.
Mathematizing Children's Literature is a practical resource you'll find yourself referring to frequently.
