Reviews

Kindergarten-Grade 3—Each title describes the use of its respective sorting skill in everyday life and includes a "Facts" section. Size uses balls, beads, scarves, etc., to encourage children to sort by big and small, long and short, thick and thin, and so on. Money addresses sorting by size, value, color, and smoothness of the edge of the coin. The more advanced skill of sorting currency to reach a certain value is also included. Color photos are clear and uncomplicated. Although the cover shows the new buffalo nickel, the Jefferson nickel is used in the examples. The older dollar bill is also illustrated. Toys shows examples of sorting by color, size, and use, and also introduces a Venn diagram. Playthings include stuffed animals, blocks, cars and trucks, a tea set, plastic dinosaurs, and more. These titles are comparable to Henry Pluckrose's Sorting and Sets (Gareth Stevens, 2001), and they will be helpful for introducing and reinforcing the skills students develop with manipulatives.—Ann Joslin, Fort LeBoef School District, Waterford, PA
