Math is fun!
I teach fourth graders, and my kids love all the activities from this book -- they look great hung up about the classroom! Art sometimes gets lost by the wayside, but this is a great way to integrate it!

good teaching tool
Wonderful book for any one working with children and wanting to find entertaining ways of teaching math concepts. The projects are all very do-able. Good for homeschoolers, teachers, librarians!
