Must Read Mentor Text Linky: Math

I am lovin' this linky with the Collaboration Cuties!

My first thought was "Math? What books do I use?" THEN I went to my classroom library and remembered! I had a little giggle because I have a basket dedicated just to math...how could I forget?!

Here are the books in my math collection. I do like to use them when I introduce a concept.

I picked three specifically to share today. The first is Mathematickles. Not only is this a good book to share during math, but it's a perfect addition to your poetry collection.

 Take a peek at how these poems are written in the form of math problems and they are all about seasons. Students would have to do some creative thinking to write poems in this form. I am going to add these to our poetry writing this month. I think my kids will love the challenge!

 Here are the other two books:

I love dogs and I love Measuring Penny by Loreen Leedy. (Check out Loreen's blog HERE) 

If you are studying measurement in math, this is a must read! I like to use it as an introduction to our measurement unit.

G is for Google is a neat A to Z book about math. This is one of my favorite pages. I used to say this all the time when I was younger! I was NOT a math kid!

What a difficult concept! I liked the way it's explained here:

Here are the books I showcased plus a few more...

Happy Reading!
