3.0 out of 5 stars Solid, But Too Much Like Its Counterpart, December 14, 2005

Solid. Meticulously Organized. Developmentally Approrpriate.

I use these words to describe this book, but its activities mirror Feldeman's other book (TRANSITION TIME!) too closely to invest in both books.

Please get either book by Feldeman. You don't need both unless you want more of excellence. I don't think you can ever get enough transition knowledge.

This book is a must have for any literature or early elementary ed teachers. Lots of math concept books that could apply to a math or science thematic unit. great for making lesson plans.
