Dear Colleagues,
Over the last few years, our research team has been working on the development of a book series called Our Mathematical World (OMW). This is a series of five illustrated books for students in later elementary school that are designed to support their mathematical problem-solving skills, executive functions, math vocabulary, and math identity. OMW follows a group of five friends (Pilar, Uriah, Lamar, Simone, and Eduardo) as they work together to solve math problems in their community using the metacognitive problem-solving approach PULSE (Pause, Understand and Remember, Lay it Out, Solve, and Evaluate). The books were co-designed with educators and students and will be available in both English and Spanish versions. Book development was funded by the Advanced Education Research and Development Fund’s (AERDF) EF+Math Program.
We are excited to share that the books will be published through Amazon and will be available on October 7th, 2024 and they can be found at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DH7YBJHW. If you would like to be notified of the link to purchase them when they are published, please complete this form<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc7Beo6UNkmC2m9Z0A5PPMJJ43o3i08D0gdzY2k8Q2UkDNfcA/viewform?vc=0&c=0&w=1&flr=0&usp=mail_form_link>. Please share this information with friends and colleagues to get the word out about these books!
Best,
David Purpura, Caroline Hornburg, and the Our Mathematical World Team
