Ten For Me by Barbara Mariconda

Ten For Me by Barbara Mariconda. Illustrated by Sherry Rogers.

 

About the book:  Two friends take off on a butterfly hunt, only to find themselves tangled in a mathematics net! Written in rhyme, award-winning author Barbara Mariconda takes you along as the narrator Rose and her friend Ed race to see who can catch the most butterflies on this addition adventure. “How many in all? Let’s add them again!” shout the butterfly hunters. Who will win? Ten for Me makes math fun, easy, and entertaining, while adding a touch of the natural world into cross-curricular education. (ages 5-10)

 

My review:  What a great way to teach simple math!  My Wyatt and Miss Marrissa will love this fast paced book that has addends 1 through 10, not equalling more than 10.  The four pages at the back of the book (each book I’ve seen from Sylvan Dell Publishing has four pages of material for teaching at the back) are great tie-ins for this store.  I can’t wait to read (or have one of the older girls) read this book to Wyatt and Marrissa.
