About this book: Math Potatoes combines math with thoughtful poems and illustrations as it challenges students to think and multiply in smarter ways. As they look for patterns, symmetries, and groups of equal size, their thinking becomes more abstract and algebraic - the key to higher math. Kids are not born good problem-solvers, they become better by learning, practicing and being persistent. Math potatoes are healthy food for thought!
