Karissacurrier This resource includes a lesson plan with great discussion questions that work with an RA, and also includes information on how to integrate this story with math content. The UDL principle 2.3 about decoding text, mathematical notation and symbols will ensure students understand the math content included in this story. 4y

Adodd1 This book seems like it would be a great addition to any class library. The UDL strategy you chose would go great with this book, and I really enjoy how it touches on other subjects as well! 4y
Chaseb I‘m not familiar with tangrams so I‘m intrigued by this book! I love that it could be used to introduce math as well. I definitely want to look into this book and even google tangrams! Thanks for this recommendation:) 4y
DrSpalding This is such a great book to integrate with math content as you noted. Tangrams can be very fun when teaching geometry and shapes. 4y
