Does you child know how many dimes make a dollar? You can count on this workbook to cover coin values and other skills pertaining to money. You can also count on being surprised at how much your child will learn about time and fractions in this lively, 64-page skill-building workbook. The skills typically taught in Grades 1 and 2 are right here: counting and comparing amounts of money to 99 cents, telling time by the hour, half hour, and quarter hour, plus identifying halves, thirds, and fourths of regions and groups. The workbook is aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, a comprehensive and progressive set of learning objectives created to help students succeed in math. At the bottom of each workbook page is a cross-reference to the Common Core grade level and "domain" or skill area that the activity practices. The workbook is also consistent with Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, a publication by the National Council for Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), and it is compatible with Singapore math pedagogy. The lessons are planned in learning sequence; skills introduced in one lesson build on those taught in previous lessons. It's a perfect way to introduce, review, and maintain essential math skills.
