Hello everybody! I am going to talk about a book called Whole-y Cow! Fractions are Fun by Taryn Souder that explains fractions on a kindergarten to second grade level. Each page explains the cow in scenarios which get the students thinking. Such as, one page states that the cow is in a red, white, and blue bathing suit, and asks how much of the cow is red. This book could be super useful for students to help understand fractions since they are often tricky to understand. For many students, fractions are hard for students to grasp, and this book introduces them to fractions, without it looking like "math," therefore, students will be learning without even knowing. If they are introduced to the concept earlier in a simple way, then they will have a much easier time when they are introduced to fractions! This book would be incredibly useful inside a classroom, and I would definitely use this for my students!
