The Counting Race
PreS-Gr. 1. The first-graders at the Robin Hill School love races, but their teacher, Mrs. Conner, has a new kind of race in mind. She wants to see who can count to 10 in one second. The kids try, but it seems impossible until they get together and figure out what to do--count by twos. Although there is a brief explanation of counting by twos, a bit more is needed for kids to really understand the concept, but the text is compact and quick to read. The gaily colored ink-and-watercolor art focuses on the multiethnic class and the supportive teacher. With an adult's help, this Ready-to-Read book can bring easy reading and easy math together for the very young.Ilene CooperCopyright © American Library Association.
