You can tie this notion in with the Free Rice website, where you child can answer math questions and collect bowls of rice for needy people. To drive the lesson even farther home, offer to double a single penny for a week and have your child predict how much money he will get at the end. One Grain of Rice by Demi is a great story to help your child understand the power of doubling, as well as a lesson in creative thinking.Stories that integrate math enhance thinking and learning on so many fronts: they expand children’s problem solving skills, bring math into real-life situations, extend thinking, and expand vocabulary and literacy skills! Books that ask kids to think mathematically or to problem solve in new ways not only reinforce math and literacy skills, but also highlight creative problem solving! Give some of these great math reads a go: ![]()
