Math Literature Lesson
The book I choose is Dr. Seuss's, The Shape of Me and Other Stuff. This book talks about many shapes that can be found anywhere and as all Dr. Seuss's books do, it rhymes! I believe that books that rhyme are very effective for children when learning new ideas and concepts. I created a math activity that corresponding with the book.
