Tiger Math: Learning to Graph from a Baby Tiger

You can use this with many grade levels. I use it as a read aloud in second grade. The students that cannot real it on their own enjoy the story and can understand how to use the graphs. It makes real world use of graphs. Student root for the tiger!

I like this book because it uses a variety of graphs, and the story is very engaging. The children love seeing the little tiger grow up, cna the variety of graphs can be used to spark discussion on what does the graph show, why is it using this type of graph, how does this differ from another graph, etc. I don't do the whole book all at one, I use it more as a chapter style - one graph with one growth trait a day works great.

I love this book. I teach school, and this book makes graphs an emotional experience! When the children see that the baby is eating and growing they cheer! Pictures are so cute!

This is such cute book and explains the math concepts very well. It does have the baby tiger's mother dying, but my kids weren't too worried about it.

I ordered this book for my 2nd grade class. This book is a great teaching tool! Each page has a different graph for discussion with details below. The right side tells the Tiger's story. I am very pleased.

Saved so much $$ buying a used identical copy to replace a damaged school book. The book was practically new.

I'm a children's librarian establishing a small collection of picture books which teach math. These Animal Math books are a fantastic addition! Anna Whitehead Nagda and Cindy Bickel are geniuses, coupling the subject of baby animals with math concepts! I've bumped into a real math phobia among both parents and children, but these books are so visually charming that's immediately overcome. I recommend them to anyone, and happily place them beside A Lion's Share, A Very Hungry Caterpillar, and Math Curse.
