Triangles

I bought this for a lesson in my classroom on types of angles. Not exactly what I was looking for and I didn't end up using it in my classroom but my boys like the robot theme

Super book for teaching geometry to my fourth graders and yet a "smart" read for my three-year old, too.

We used this book during our geometry unit and found it to be a great resource.

My 7-year-old math nerd loves this book!

David A Adler's Triangles book features great graphics depicting the different types of triangles.This book is checked out by both elementary teachers and parents. Bravo!

"Triangles" is a non-fiction book that's masquerading as a picture book! Great at-home or teacher's classroom resource for students learning (the math unit) about angles: quickly walks you through the basics while making it fun with the layout and pictures.

David Adler has a talent for writing content based picture books. Triangles is packed with math vocabulary that relates to triangles and angles. The use of a robot figure to teach geometry appeals to students. This book teaches:• how angles are named.• telling time using angles.• measuring angles.• naming triangles (based on angles and length of sides).• similar and congruent shapes.Students would benefit from hearing this book multiple times. The first reading would be to familiarize them with the vocabulary; and then multiple readings to answer the many questions and trying the mini experiments. I can’t wait to read this to my second graders to introduce triangles and angles and to share it with our Talented and Gifted teacher for her to expand on. 5 stars!!

We are a homeschooling family who checks out lots of library books to incorporate into our daily lessons. We read this one today and loved it so much we decided to purchase our own copy. Packed with easy to understand info and great visuals!
