“Kids, young and old, fall in love with math when they see how real-life and effortless it becomes thanks to these books.” —Kimberly D. Mueller, Ed.D., First Grade Teacher, Ashbrook School, Lumberton NJ
Safari Park is perfect for teaching solving for unknowns to second, third, and fourth graders. It's 4 tickets for the Treetop Coaster! Just 2 for the Elephant Twirl! Five cousins each have 20 tickets to spend at Safari, and a little algebra will tell them how many rides they can try. But who will dare the death-defying Terrible Tarantula?
Kids will love the story and the funny illustrations by Steve Bjorkman. Parents and other educators will love how the story and pictures make understanding comparisons a breeze—as well as the concrete examples of how math works! The book contains activities for adults to do with kids to extend math into their own lives!
