This book shows how creative math can really work. Exploring the ways in which math skills can be learned through cross-curicular activities based on visual arts and music, the book presents math as a meaningful and exciting subject which holds no fear for children. The authors recognize that while math-phobia prevails, attitudes and approaches to teaching the subject need to be reviewed, and issues such as gender stereotyping need to be tackled at an early stage. These classroom-based stories include detailed examples of integrative mathematic projects.
