Overview

Mr. and Mrs. Shape are expecting a baby, but they are surprised when three arrive! The first is just like Mother Rhombus, the other just like Father Rectangle, the third baby is a different shape. What should her name be? Go on a geometry naming adventure as all the shape family relatives weigh in. Will Cousin Triangle, Aunt Hexagon or Grandma Rhombus have the right angle? This fictional story includes a 4-page For Creative Minds section in the back of the book and a 30-page cross-curricular Teaching Activity Guide online. The Shape Family Babies is vetted by experts and designed to encourage parental engagement. Its extensive back matter helps teachers with time-saving lesson ideas, provides extensions for science, math, and social studies units, and uses inquiry-based learning to help build critical thinking skills in young readers. The Spanish translation supports ELL and dual-language programs. The interactive ebook reads aloud in both English and Spanish with word highlighting and audio speed control to promote oral language skills, fluency, pronunciation, text engagement, and reading comprehension.

Reviews

This book is wonderful for reading aloud to younger children, and can also be used as a literary connection to introducing geometry to older children. - Library Media Connection All in all, a great book that I will enjoy reading to my children. - Science Books & Films Geometrically varying relatives suggest names (-Parallelogram,- -Quadrangle,- etc.), but the giddy reader knows from the get-go that -Square- is the answer. - Horn Book Guide
