![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As a reference book, I think this is an excellent book and will teach the concepts of time well. The illustrations are gorgeous, but I agree the ruler like component at the bottom of the page was distracting and I kept trying to understand it, and finally decided it was not relevant. If I, an adult, find it difficult, I expect many c. The Beetle Book by Steve Jenkins: The beetle world is vast: One out of every four living things on earth is a beetle. This makes the book difficult to read and concentrate on. A caterpillar, squirrel, pufferfish and blobfish also get the third degree, along with the sun bear, the hyrax and many other animals. A hamster is asked about his fat cheeks and an axolotl is asked about the feathers growing out of his head. ![]() Jenkins has tried to stuff too much information into one book and failed to organize it except by the time interval (second, minute.). Jenkins and Page include a wide range of animals, from furry to freaky. Review 2: This is a very educational book and adults will find it as interesting as children, BUT it is difficult to read. You can use this to have the students make up their own daily schedule and come up with their own elapsed time problems(for older grades) or just talk about how many seconds in a minute, minutes in a hour, hour in a day (younger-middle grades). It talks about what can happen in a second, minute, or hour. Can be used to introduce time and teach about elapsed time. Review 1: Great math book from 1st-4th grade. ![]()
