Beautiful Math: See, Think and Wonder - Deanna Pecaski Mclennan

Descriere Beautiful Math: See, Think and Wonder - Deanna Pecaski Mclennan

Many children (and adults) think of math as a subject that needs to be explored in isolation during a 'math class'. In this book readers are introduced to the many different ways math is visible in children's artistic experiences. Noticing patterns and shapes in artwork, identifying lines of symmetry in pictures, and measuring to fit an art piece into a frame all help children notice and name the ways math helps them when creating and exploring art. \nIn this book readers explore the math that exists in artistic tools and experiences using the 'see, think, and wonder' thinking routine. Colourful photos and an easy to access text invite both children and adults to explore math in the world around us. Photos can also be used without text to engage children in math talks as they observe and discuss what they see on each page. \n \nEducators will find this book to be an effective resource to inspire math talks within the classroom (e.g., at the art center, during an art lesson, or when sharing children's work) or before heading on a walk around the school or community to look at artwork. Families can use this book as a tool for helping inspire math thinking and conversation with children during quality reading time together or when reflecting upon children's art creations that have been brought home from school.\n
