Mathematics is the language in which science is written. In its oldest forms, mathematics studies trajectories in space, solves equations, calculates probabilities, generates statistics, and much more. Read these children's books to celebrate mathematics for Science Literacy Week!

Emma grew up in a household full of pens and pencils and books. She knew she wanted to be an illustrator from a very early age! Her books are great for sharing side-by-side. Watch Sarah’s Saturday Spotlight, then borrow a book!

Decodable books use mostly words that can be broken down into the phonetic code a child is learning. They require the reader to decode almost every word, reinforcing phonetic code and blending so kids can develop strong reading skills. Watch Cheryl’s Saturday Spotlight explaining why these books are important, then borrow a decodable text, a dyslexia-friendly book, or a book using the phonetic method!
