| Mummy Math: An Adventure in Geometry by Henry Holt and Co. (BYR) Lesson Kickoff! |
| I used this book for two separate lesson plans. I made a game board and added game cards based on the book. This quickly became an engaging way to count faces, vertices, and edges. I also used it in 7th grade social studies to add questions about history. BONUS: my 13 yr. old and 10 yr. old thought it was an engaging book! |
