I would like to share a new Holiday Gift Guide Sponsor with you. Life of Fred Elementary Series Complete 10 Book Set (Life of Fred) a series of books created to help children learn math. This set of books is published by Dr. Stanley F. Schmidt. As I was looking around the internet to find books Charlie could use in math I saw quite a few people using this series of books. I can’t wait to check them out.
This series of books is called Fast Freddy and can be read like a storybook but contains math problems inside each book. For Charlie this is awesome because Charlie is struggling in math and the school is not wanting to get him a Tutor. Anytime I find a book that I think would help Charlie learn math I try and purchase the books because the more we work with Charlie the better off he will be.
Life of Fred is a book series that is a narrative about a funny math prodigy, Fred. It reads like a children’s book but includes math concepts – pretty great!
Below is what one of the pages Charlie will be doing looks like.
I have a question for you have you used the Life of Fred books in your classroom? If so what did you think of them and why?
Gracias,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
