Terrific Math Books to Engage Students

During my math centers, one of my math tubs is always filled with math books! I love exposing my students to math across multiple disciplines and ways that are sure to engage them. Math books are a wonderful learning tool filled with pictures and real life examples of the math principles they are learning! So many of my students connect with the content we are learning in the math books because it offers a different perspective.

Here are some of my favorite books about math to share with my 2nd graders!
