Who knew that we are surrounded by math?
One morning Mr. Fibonacci, the math teacher, says "YOU KNOW, you can think of almost everything as a math problem." A girl wakes up the next morning to find her life is one big math problem. As she takes out the milk for her cereal she wonders " How many quarts in a gallon? How many pints in a quart? How many inches in a foot? How many feet in a yard? How many yards in my neighborhood? How many inches in a pint? How many feet in my shoes?" She has fallen into the math curse. Read this book to see how her math-filled day turns out and see how she breaks the curse.
Math Curse written Jon Scieszka and illustrated by Lane Smith. Viking Press:1995.
