Check out ENC's website for materials http://www.enc.org/ They have a great list of lesson plans and resources for math. Here are some: http://www.enc.org/features/focus/archive/elemmathlit/ http://www.enc.org/features/focus/archive/elemmathlit/document.shtm?input=FOC-003806-index http://www.enc.org/features/focus/archive/elemmathlit/document.shtm?input=FOC-003808-index http://www.enc.org/features/focus/archive/elemmathlit/document.shtm?input=FOC-003810-index Also, the California Department of Education has a great website entitled: Recommended Literature for Math and Science http://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/sc/ll/index.asp Here you can search by genre, title, author, etc. as well as grade level to locate titles of books that would meet specific needs (involving your teachers in the selection process, if you can meet the timeline for spending the money, would be a great way to collaborate with them while selecting the materials!). Here are lists of bibliographies for teaching math using children's literature: http://www.ccsdschools.com/curriculum/emplibrary/Math%20Bibliography%20-%202003.pdf Concept Books: http://falcon.jmu.edu/~ramseyil/concept.htm Counting Books: http://falcon.jmu.edu/~ramseyil/counting.htm And a list of resource of Mathematics which contains lessons, book lists, teaching ideas, etc.: http://falcon.jmu.edu/~ramseyil/math.htm Other sites include: http://www.carolhurst.com/subjects/math/librarymath.html http://www.carolhurst.com/subjects/math/booksinmath.html http://www.mathteachers.ab.ca/links.html Also, don't forget to include "science and math" combinations. The National Science Teachers Association has a list of recommended books that include math AND science (two for one curriculum hits) here: http://www2.nsta.org/recommends/results.asp I'm sure others can offer lists and links...I'd also like to see them since this is always one of those areas that we seems to "neglect" in collection development! If others have lists, please share! Good luck and have fun spending your $$$ Happy Fourth of July!
