There are so many new math resources that I’m excited about for our homeschool this year. One of the ones I’m most excited about using this fall is Dinah Zike’s Big Book of Math.
Educational consultant, lecturer, and author, Dinah Zike has invented hundreds of educational manipulatives and created over 150 supplemental educational books and materials that are used in homes and classrooms nationally. In her book, Big Book of Math (Dinah-Might Adventures; 2003) Dinah provides instructions and templates to create over 35 foldables in addition to reproducible math graphics and activities.
Included in the book are graphics & activities on:
Currency
Clocks
Calendar
Rulers
Systems of measurement
Liquid measurement
Cylinders & Flasks
Thermometers
Fractional Parts
Music Notes
Two and three-dimensional shapes
3-D models
Tangrams
Protractors & rulers
Place value graphics
Student Addition Table
Student multiplication table
Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division flash cards
This is a wonderful resource for parents and teachers of elementary age students.
