Content Instructions

Children’s Literature Annotated Bibliography (75 points)
Use Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets to create a spreadsheet that lists 50 children’s books that could be read aloud to your class when teaching math. Include the title, author, ISBN, a paragraph describing the book, and the applicable math strand(s) for each book. You may also want to include specific standard and indicator numbers. It is very important that you create a column identifying the standards/strands listed below, so you can sort your list and quickly find the books you need when you teach those topics.
