Developing Number Concepts Using Unifix Cubes

The book came so quickly! I was impressed. The book was in excellent condition. However it was missing the table of contents.

I have taught pre-first, first, second and fifth. This book has been a super resource over the past 16 years. It is most helpfull at the primary level, but I did use it in 5th grade on occasion. I am now back in second grade. My room had some water damage over the summer and this book is one of the resources I lost. I can't wait to replace it. It helps you introduce all the basic skills at any level. I also find it very user friendly. It has a table of contents by grade level and by skill. It is a staple in my school bag.

This book is excellent for kindergarten and first grade teachers. It's become my math bible. I use it in the beginning of the year more than the school district adopted math textbook. If you ever have an opportunity to take a workshop from Kathy Richardson, go for it. You'll get more from the book after attending one of her workshops.

This is an excellent, if not essential teacher resource for teaching math concepts to young children. As a first grade teacher whose school system is on its third mandated math curriculum in 10 years, Richardson is my life line. Her text informs clearly and concisely the process of concept development in young children. Ways to effectively observe and assess students are excellent and included in each chapter. Activities and lessons are easy to implement, often open ended, engaging, and fun.
