Leaping Lizards (MathStart 1) (utgåvan 2005)

Leaping Lizards explores the concept of counting by 5s and 10s but adding lizards to the group. The illustrations are fun and whimsical, as is the text, which rhymes. I liked the suggestions from the author at the back of the book of how you could use the book as an aide for teaching skip counting by 5 and 10. For example, you could read it with manipulatives on the table for the kids. I think it would be a great book for a small group setting, and would liven up lessons that teach these essential skills.
