NOTE: This is an ADVANCED-LEVEL MENUS Book for grades 3-5. It is not for those who are behind in the classroom.
THE GOOD: This book provides 100 pages of math menus already created for you. This is a great resource for extension activities in the classroom as well as for use with gifted students.
THE NOT AS GOOD: If you are not familiar with how to use menus in the classroom, you will have a difficult time using the activities in this book. Although this book has a section called "How to Use Menus in the Classroom," it does not really explain the concept of what menus are and a step by step way to use them. It is more in the form of guidelines.
NOTE: I received a free ARC copy of this book from LibraryThing and the publisher in exchange for an honest review. My reviews are always 100% honest based on preset criteria.
