My May's List of Read Books- Just One!!

I need more time to read!!! I really do! As current student (yeah teachers can be students as well) at the Vancouver School Board, Adult Education, taking the English Studies 12, I have almost no time for literature and focus that can be placed at additional reading. Howeveeeer, I have put a lot of effort in managing my time; being student, being a math tutor, being wife and support to my husband, and being aunt (daily checking up my baby nephew).  But, (and yes, my English teacher said that we are not supposed to start our sentences with "but", but there are some tendencies in moving from that point, so I'm just gonna slide toward these tendencies haha by starting my sentences with "but", "so", and "and"), where was I... oh yes, so, here I am, proud to announce that I read a book, and even more, I'm gonna write a vlog stating my opinion on it! Ha! So, let's see. πŸ˜€ What's the point of Math?   This cute math's book's autho...

Bedtime Math- book review

In the series of Books Bedtime Math, by author Laura Overdeck, we get familiar some fun facts πŸ˜€ There are four Bedtime Math books: Bedtime Math: A Fun Excuse to Stay Up Late Bedtime Math: This Time It’s Personal Bedtime Math: The Truth Comes Out Bedtime Math: How Many Guinea Pigs Can Fit on a Plane? I read two of them, for which I'm going to share my personal impression.      The first book that I read was the Bedtime Math: The Truth Comes Out. That books consists of 40 fun facts fitted into paragraph-long texts. Besides the facts, on the next side (one title covers two pages) you can see math-related questions on three levels of understanding math + the bonus question. The questions range from pre-K up to G7 maybe, although some bonus-problems are really tricky. I learned nice fun facts. The most interesting for me was the "Staring Contest", where the author is sharing the fact the camels have a 3 eyelids! Wow! Isn't that weird? πŸ˜€  To summarize, this book is fun-...

I'm Trying to Love Math - book review

   In this vlog we gonna talk about (ok, I'm gonna talk about πŸ˜€) about the book:  I'm trying to Love Math, by  Bethany Barton. The book was released in 2019, by the publisher Viking.  If your kid or student is mostly yawning during the class or time dedicated to the math lessons this book is certainly for them.  Actually I have already recommended this book to a parent, so they can headed out to his child. I'm eager to see the results, hopefully will be anyπŸ˜€ Firstly, the cover of the book and the illustrations are so catchy. The letters are oversized and dynamic, they just scream "Read me!" The illustrations totally coincide with the content. And now the content. Page after page, the book tells us how to not let down the math.  The narrator is math-phobic, and  narrator tells what's on his mind. But each of his thoughts goes bounced back by the three-eyed purple ET. I'm not gonna be spoiling anything, but you will find out from which planet the ...
