Short Mysteries You Solve with Math / Misterios cortos que resuelves con matem [Paperback]

As a bilingual mathematics educator, it is refreshing to discover a resource that is both mathematically rich and of such good quality. I appreciate the way these short stories are displayed in both English and Spanishit is very clear that careful attention was paid to both the language and the mathematics. This book is an excellent addition to any bilingual mathematics program! I wish this book had existed while I was still teaching. This is one of the few books that allows readers to grasp difficult math concepts and learn another language. It is an enjoyable and enlightening read. I highly recommend it!

Each one should read the language that they prefer, although, that is, I recommend trying to read it in only in English, and if we don't understand something, then read the Spanish versionIt is an American book, made by math teachers thinking of children from 10 to 12 years old (which is to say from fourth place to sixth of primary and first of the ESO but we can also extend it to other grades of the Spanish ESO (who, clearly, will have covered more material since they are already working with equations, polynomials, lC<
