Building Connections Between Literacy and Numeracy : What If Your ABCs Were Your 123s?

Minton, Leslie

Building Connections Between Literacy and Numeracy : What If Your ABCs Were Your 123s? / Leslie Minton - New Delhi : SAGE Publications India Pvt. Ltd. , 2015. - xiii, 102 p. ; 26 cm.

This book explores the close relationship between literacy (reading, writing, speaking, and listening) and numeracy (mathematical understanding and communication). Leslie Minton argues that literacy and mathematics should not be taught as completely separate subjects because both require students to interpret information, communicate ideas, solve problems, and think critically.
The central idea of the book is that literacy and numeracy are interconnected ways of making meaning. When teachers intentionally link language and mathematics instruction, students develop stronger understanding, improved communication skills, and greater confidence in both subjects.
