Safari Park is perfect for teaching solving for unknowns to second, third, and fourth graders. It's 4 tickets for the Treetop Coaster! Just 2 for the Elephant Twirl! Five cousins each have 20 tickets to spend at Safari, and a little algebra will tell them how many rides they can try. But who will dare the death-defying Terrible Tarantula?
Kids will love the story and the funny illustrations by Steve Bjorkman. Parents and other educators will love how the story and pictures make understanding comparisons a breeze—as well as the concrete examples of how math works! The book contains activities for adults to do with kids to extend math into their own lives!
