For some kids, there is nothing more exciting than a train. We use this motivational topic to deliver critical instruction and practice in mathematics-counting, addition, and the connections between the two. This book shares deep conceptual understanding, lots of procedural practice, and robust applications to help students apply these skills in a variety of contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why are we proud of this book?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We introduce addition early, on page 3. Then, we explore addition through many different aspects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Counting purple and orange train cars to understand “in all”<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Introducing word problems with picture supports so students can hear the math, see the math, and then do the math.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Conceptual instruction that the order of addition does not matter. Then, students put this into practice right away to see how 8 + 2 can be an easier way to solve 2 + 8.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Numerous pictures showing fingers and numbers to help students develop and explore key kindergarten strategies using their own hands.\n
      \n
    • Occasional questions asking students to identify what is “hard” (a beginning for metacognitive thinking that will help students manage their own learning)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      What do you get?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • 101 pages of exciting mathematics <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Gorgeous illustrations and exciting train photographs<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Answer key to help support student growth<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
