Books at the Library: Understanding Addition

It’s never too early for students to start mastering algebraic skills. They are important building blocks for competency in math. Critical concepts dealing with operations and simple algebraic methods are explored, including addition and subtraction techniques, simple word problems, and decomposing numbers. Helpful images engage readers, and accessible text makes each skill easy for them to understand. Readers learn to decompose numbers in a library setting in this volume, which highlights standard K.OA.A.3 of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. This book should be paired with At the Kennel (9781477720158) from the InfoMax Math Readers Program to provide the alternative point of view on the same topic.
