It has counting and traceable numbers for Pre-Kindergarten as well as addition and subtraction activities for Kindergarten through First Grade. Right off the mark, the text engages children by introducing them to the characters and inviting them to hunt for these characters throughout the book. This seek-and-find gives kids an entertaining task that requires focus and attention to detail; two precursors required of effective learners. There is also multi-racial representation which allows young learners to identify a piece of themselves and their friends in the book while learning basic math concepts. Besides math concepts, the book offers an assortment of fun exercises that children will enjoy like coloring pages, finding differences among a group of related items, a maze, and a list of various pasta. Two things worth mentioning: Each number is presented in numerical and written form. This is a wonderful strategy to introduce and reinforce site word recognition. There are directions for writing each number that include a visual prompt. The math worksheets would make a wonderful supplement to a math center or a small learning group; these same activities would supplement at home learning and homework assignments. For fun and educational activities, you can count on this workbook to deliver! As a former Pre- Kindergarten/ Kindergarten teacher, I highly recommend this book for anybody who teaches beginning math skills. Ellwyn A., Teacher and Author
