Morrison? Jo Ann Brewer? Feeney, Christensen, & Moracivik? Watch Out! This text packs some major punch...quite unexpectantly. I've been waiting for this new edition from Gordon & Brown for four years. The last book was pretty intriguing.

Van de Walle Allyn & Bacon, 2006 Math teacher must have! This was a required text for a M.Ed. class. The practices in this book are almost perfectly aligned with Massachusetts frameworks and the Connnected Math Project (CMP) text used by my district (Lowell).

I'll be relying on this book for years to come.             My New Baby (New Baby Series)66 reviews Child's Play International, 2000 wondeful book for toddlers Our 27 month old son loves this book and its companion, "Waiting for Baby" by the same author.
