Now, I like the typical, mainstream books like Usb Now, I like the typical, mainstream books like Usborne look inside math too but sometimes they're just too in-your-face. If you've wondered how to make math concrete and purposeful using stories, say hello to Living Math books. Some of my favourite books for families and educators are 1. The Sir Cumference series Written with clever puns and humour, this series follows Sir Cumference, Lady Di and their children through multiple quests. Think constructing a round table, quests in angle land, a dragon to calculate pi and other such adventures 2. @Charlesbridgepublishing storytelling math series Similar to Sir cumference, but these books use relatable activities from daily life to explore math concepts. Liie using rakhi beads to explore patterns or buns for fractions, these are simple and fun. 3. Nico Numero @soniamehta.author A boy with magical math abilities that he uses to help his friends while we also explore shapes, patterns and fairness. 4. Ta ka Dhi Mi @surtaalmasti Using music and nature to explore the Fibonacci sequence, this is also a sweet story about interest led learning and how everything we learn is connected. 5. Very Bad at Math @despairlarson I really love this one. Through a relatable classroom and characters, we get to see what dycalculia may look like in real life, what equality means as well as friendship struggles. This one gets the tone right and addresses some myths wonderfully 6. How big is a foot by Rolf Myller Possibly, my favourite of the lot, I think I love this because of the simple montessori aligned story. How does a king's wish to gift his queen the perfect sized bed give rise to the metric system? Don't ask me for age guidelines. 4 and 6 are best suited for 4+ , the others (even though some are picture books)- elementary upwards depending on the concept explored. #ammatoday #ammatoday_books Math book recommendations, picture books, children's literature, kidlit, chapter books, raising readers, living math books, homeschool math, library resources

Happy World storytelling day. It is an absolute p Happy World storytelling day. It is an absolute privilege to be able to witness how stories hold us, and guide us. What has storytelling taught you as a reader/ parent/ educator? #ammatoday_shelfie
