5-Part Professional Learning Book Study Series

“Messing Around With Math”
A book study facilitated by author David Costello 

Ready-to-use problems that engage students in a better understanding of key math concepts

**A one-stop shop for all K–6 math teachers**

This book is filled with a range of problems that support student understanding of key math concepts. From word problems to open-ended rich tasks to real-world math problems, you will have a toolbox that addresses the complex learning needs of your students. Messing Around With Math provides problems that can be used at any point in the lesson: whole-group, guided small-group instruction, or independent practice. This resource will also help teachers develop their skills in crafting rich, meaningful and engaging lessons. Instead of endless searching for the ‘right’ problem for your students, you will have a one-stop shop.
