Each book in the series offers answers to questions that teachers often ask and includes complete directions and illustrations for over 100 hands-on activities. These books are guaranteed to encourage children to explore the wonders of their world! They are ideal for beginning teachers and inclusive classrooms.
" More Than ....
Counting fills a void in the early childhood field. Most of the math idea books currently available present many activities which fail to advance children's thinking in mathematics. This book gets at the heart of the matter, showing dozens of ways to encourage children to construct a rich understanding of number, thus providing the solid foundation needed for more advanced number concepts."
Sharon Griffin, coordinator of early childhood education, University of South Carolina, Beaufort
"All of the More Than . . . series have gone to my classes for students to see. It is such a teacher-friendly format, one that works well for teachers at various levels of education and experience. Everything is laid out for the teacher: goals, materials, descriptions of activities; with enough theoretical framework provided at the outset to help students and teachers understand the rationale for the activities. These books should be in every child care center's resource room."
Louise E. Bower, professor of education, University of Cincinnati
