I have the whole set of Sir Cumference books and plan to teach one book per class at our co-op this session, so I need stuff to do! There are some websites out 'there' that have cooler activities than these, BUT, there are only a few cool activities I found for a few of the books. I had high hopes for this book to fill in the gaps. It...mostly did. There are 35 activities, but 11 of them have little or nothing to do with the set of books - they're generic math activities (though some of them are nifty, and I'll have them on hand for 'whoops, went too fast, now I need filler!'). Of the book-related 24 activities, a few are super crazy boring-does anyone really need another worksheet with problem after problem to solve? So let's say there's 20 decent activities related to the book series.Happily, every single book does, in fact, have at least 2 activities -other than the Viking's Map book, which really only has 1 activity that's very relevant. There's a chart on the back of the book that shows which activities go with which book...but...someone didn't proofread that very well - not to mention they were a bit generous on what activities they thought could match up with what books. They claim that there are a solid 10 activities per book - with lots of multi-book crossover. Not. Some of the Dragon of Pi and Isle of Immeter activites might cross, but most activities are really for just one book.Some of the (relevant) activities include class roll-playing games, manipulating cut paper, assessing and measuring objects, and games to play.The seller should definitely add some page pictures to the listing. And they should revise that overly optimistic chart on the back cover showing what activities are for what books, and post that, too.I'm glad I bought the book, I'll definitely use many of the activities, and I really did need more than I found on blogs - good as they are.
My students love the stories and I like sneaking in math ideas
Really need more info on this item, please. Is it a teaching resource, or actual student activity worksheets? I am currently purchasing 6 of the Sir Cumference books for my daughter who, due to her learning disability in Math, is on the verge of giving up. The book series is something I'm looking for so we can get her reading time as well as math at once. However, I'd really like to know more about this particular item. Thanks.
We really need more info about this book, to decide whether to invest! Sorry for rating the book w/o knowledge of it, but I don't know how else to get this across.
