Category Description for Mad For Math
Aptly self-described as “so much fun kids don’t realize
they’re learning,” these math books are full of creative characters and rich
settings. From escaping mazes to rescuing sea animals, books present storylines
that students participate in by solving problems for the characters. As
students engage in the story, they also engage in practicing multiplication,
geometry, logical puzzles, and more. Building a positive attitude around math,
these books would be a great resource for younger students struggling with math
concepts or students who are visual learners.
