Although I am a math teacher I believe that reading is essential to all subject areas, not just to "reading class" itself. Throughout the year we will be reading many "math" related stories. I will list some great math books that I think kids will love. Some you may have read and never thought of them as "math" books and some we may read in class. I do encourage you to read all of them and think about math in a new way!
ENJOY!
