That's A Possibility!: A Book About What Might Happen (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Really colorful pictures are used to help students understand the math terms that deal with possibility and probability. This would be a good text to use pages individually rather then read it to class cover to cover. This would be good for any grade 3-7 as a way to introduce the concepts and then cement this with a solid lesson that includes modeling and practice for the students. These concepts can be very confusing and Mr. Goldstone has written a text to show in a graphic way how each works. There are several problems in the book for students to do as a demonstration of their learning that could be done after the lesson. What's possible? What's likely? What's probable? What's the difference between them????This takes on these and some other rather difficult concepts and presents them in a fun, easy to grasp way. Bright, colorful pictures, good use of font and colors, and a good way to break up the information make this one 4.5 stars. Especially when you add the fun factor, because it really is fun to read!Very recommended, grades 3 and up.
