Each story has a group of lessons that help teachers implement problem-solving, discovery, and hands-on activities. Topics will include all the math standards. Literature provides opportunities to communicate and develop a deeper understanding from group discussions. Students will be encouraged to use written accounts, simple diagrams, and math journals.
