Download or read book Instant Math Storymats written by Mary Beth Spann and published by Scholastic Inc.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains 18 reproducible Math Storymats, each one a refreshing addition to your early elementary math program. Each storymat is accompanied by two separate read-aloud story selections for you to present to your students. These stories guide children in using plastic disk-shaped markers to interact with mats in specific and open-ended ways. Together, the mats and the manipulative help children explore and practice math skills and concepts. As you observe your children manipulating markers on the mat, you gain insight into their ability to employ math strategies in performing activities or solving problems. Because the mats are versatile enough to use in an individual, small, or large group setting, there are lots of opportunities for you to engage in 'math talk' with your students.
