Absolutely! Students benefit when we use context to teach and practice math skills. #MathinPractice #MathbytheBook @heinemannpub.bsky.social
When elementary students see math in action—in a recipe, on a map, or through play—it becomes more than a subject. It becomes a skill they’re excited to use! 🧑🍳🗺️

Looking for children’s books to set a context for multi-digit computations? Try “Too Many Pumpkins” by L. White. Pose some problems about pumpkin seeds, muffins, and cookies! For more ideas see the posts in Math in Practice/Sue O’Connell Facebook group. @heinemannpub.bsky.social #MathbytheBook
