Deepening Student's’ Mathematical
Understanding with Children’s Literature focuses on using high quality children’s books to create engaging and
meaningful tasks that deepen mathematics learning for pre-K and elementary
students, consistent with state-adopted standards. With the perspective of
practice based on theory, the authors provide resources to help teachers
develop background knowledge for deciding why, when, and how to incorporate
children’s literature effectively. Relevant exemplars illustrate principles and
guidelines for selecting and utilizing children’s literature to provide
meaningful mathematics experiences for all students.
