Book synopsis

Exploring trees outdoors is an enjoyable experience that children love to do! Swinging from a branch, exploring leaves and bark, and observing gnarled roots are all favourite activities that also integrate rich learning. Heading outside to explore the yard uses children's excitement and enthusiasm for sensory and nature experiences to inspire rich mathematical and scientific inquiries about what they are seeing and experiencing.

In this book readers explore the math that exists in tree exploration using the 'see, think, and wonder' thinking routine. Colourful photos and an easy to access text invite both children and adults to explore the fun and excitement of playing in trees outdoors. This book can spark mathematical conversations with children, and be used as a guide for discovering the rich math that exists in nature-based activities. Photos can also be used without text to engage children in math talks as they observe and discuss what they see on each page.

Educators will find this book to be an effective resource to inspire math talks within the classroom or before heading outside to play and explore the living things in the yard or beyond. Often educators are asked to justify open-ended outdoor play. Exploring Tree Math: See, Think and Wonder before heading outside will help empower children to notice and name the learning they are experiencing while having fun in nature. Families can use this book as a tool for helping inspire math thinking and conversation with children during quality reading time together or before heading outside to play or on a walk.
