5.0 out of 5 stars A great math activity for the elementary classroom and beyond, March 4, 2011
I teach and tutor third through fifth grade. This book was a great problem solving activity in my small group instruction. I covered the "answers" on each page with post it tape, gave each student a white board/marker, and read each page that has a wonderful bird math problem solving question on it written in pose. I asked the students to write the math problem (+, -, X, div) that would solve the query from each poem on their boards, and then we discussed our answers. The students loved it. I then had each student choose one page, illustrate it and copy the poem for a bulletin board which I named "Birds + Spring = Great Math Problems". I also hung a beautiful bird quilt that my students had made on a previous year. Great book, great springboard for all kinds of math instruction. But I also think it would be a great book to cuddle up with at home, one on one with your own favorite little student.
