Celebrate diversity, math, and the power of storytelling!
Rafael wants to protect his toys from his little sister, Essie.
Gathering materials from around the house, he builds a wall tall enough
and wide enough to keep her out. But will it be strong enough? And what
does Essie really want? A playful exploration of physical space and
geometry, featuring Chicanx (Mexican American) characters and a glossary
of Spanish words.
Storytelling Math celebrates children using math in their daily
adventures as they play, build, and discover the world around them.
Joyful stories and hands-on activities make it easy for kids and their
grown-ups to explore everyday math together. Developed in collaboration
with math experts at STEM education nonprofit TERC, under a grant from
the Heising-Simons Foundation.
