5.0 out of 5 stars What a wonderful EC math book!
I looked through (and bought) several Early Childhood math concepts books before I started teaching, and this one was by far the best of the lot. Don't be turned off by the early '70s look of the cover and layout, the "workjobs" are excellent for teaching children math concepts. You might have to make slight modifications, but overall it is a great blueprint...

2.0 out of 5 stars Wasn't what I expected
I was expecting a book with many ideas to use in my classroom and was disappointed when many of the activities are all alike. I would not recommend this book to others.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a wonderful EC math book!, June 27, 2001
This review is from: Workjobs II: Number Activities for Early Childhood (Spiral-bound)
I looked through (and bought) several Early Childhood math concepts books before I started teaching, and this one was by far the best of the lot. Don't be turned off by the early '70s look of the cover and layout, the "workjobs" are excellent for teaching children math concepts. You might have to make slight modifications, but overall it is a great blueprint for excellent supplemental activities. The best part is you can make most of the games from scraps and a quick trip to the dry goods section of your grocery store! These "games," as the children in my classes have renamed them, encourage them to have fun as they learn. A must for any EC classroom.

Lorton's books are great. A true innovation. It's a hippie way to teach Math, but it works.
