Focus On Using Children's Literature in Math and Science
This issue recognizes connections between math and science and children's literature. For example, a good deal of children's literature is "literature of fact;" that is, several stories teach children about scientific or mathematic ideas. Another connection is how fictional literature might influence kids' thinking about the issues of math and science.
