Teddy Bear Math (McGrath Math)

Colorful teddies
make great counting tools.
Grab four big handfuls,
then follow the rules.

In a follow-up to Teddy Bear Counting, young learners can build on their math skills with their colorful teddy bear friends. Math concepts include sorting, graphing, counting, adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. Even kindergartners can learn complicated math skills easily with these bouncy rhymes, familiar teddy bear manipulatives, and step-by-step instructions that make learning math fun and exciting.

Simple, bright illustrations show children how to set up their teddy bear sets, graphs, and equations, with plenty of white space to make each step clear. Cute teddies and a few helping hands will ensure that little ones can’t wait to go back to the beginning and do more math!
