PeterPan Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Any suggestions? I'm looking for one that shows how they all connect, sort of like what How Much is a Million does for numbers and place value... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelli Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Maybe this one: A Second, A Minute, A Week with Days in It: A Book About Time by Brian P. Cleary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerileanne99 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Maybe this one: A Second, A Minute, A Week with Days in It: A Book About Time by Brian P. Cleary I second (ha!) this one:) My dd loved it! Here is the time list from the living math site, and I have to admit to owning a good number of these. One of my absolute favorites is at the bottom, part of the Time Life Math series. My dd also loves the Pigs on a Blanket book (and this whole series) as well as the beautiful One Lighthouse, One Moon (younger readers). http://www.livingmath.net/ReaderLists/TimeCal endars/tabid/1012/language/en-US/Default.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterPan Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Ooo, I was going through the living math list before you posted it. There was so much there, it's a ton to sift through! :) The library has the ones you all liked, and I'm also trying the book In the Next Three Seconds from the list. It might be too old, but it would be in the vein. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerileanne99 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Oh, and if you are looking for young readers don't miss 'A Second is a Hiccup' which relates all the standard time units to things a child can understand. A second is a hiccup, a week is seven sleeps, that sort of thing, but lovely rhyming language that makes it a bit more special:) http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0439831067/ref=aw_d_dsc_books Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like exactly what I needed!! Right level, right thought process. Any more in that vein? Not that I'm greedy or anything... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerileanne99 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Well, yes:) I just had a look through some of our living math book collection and can't believe I forgot about Cluck O'Clock. I may well have blanked it from memory in desperation as there was a time that I must have read that book hundreds of times...it is a day in the life of chickens in the henhouse, and my kiddo is nuts about chickens. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/082341809X/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1397304030&sr=8-1 I will look at the ones in dd''s room today:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
