Math Book Lists for Incorporating Literacy in Lessons

advertisement

If there is a children’s book that you use in your classroom that connects to any performance tasks or is related to math literacy, please forward the book title and author to the Instructional Coaches, so that we may add it to this list.

Books are not limited to the grade level indicated, please feel free to use any of the books listed in your classroom. For example: Ed Emberly’s Picture Pie can be used across the grades because the fraction representations are appropriate for all students.
