Book Reviews of Math Talk: Mathematical Ideas in Poems for Two Voices

Book Review: More like a lesson plan
Summary: 2 Stars

This book is ok but not great. It's more of an idea starter, 'get you thinking', type of book. I agree with the other reviewers that, as a teacher, you can read a poem or two in class to get kids started on their own two voice math poems but don't rely on it for correct math or to be a resource for class. There is not enough varied content for that. It's more like a lesson plan that the author has expanded into a short book.
