The Doorbell Rang


The Doorbell Rang
by Pat Hutchins

We read this book to help us study fair shares in math. The book starts out with Mom baking her kids 12 cookies. She tells them to share the cookies fairly, so they each get six. BUT, then the doorbell rang and more kids came in so they had to split the cookies again. The pattern repeated until each kid ended up with 1 cookie each. So how many kids ended up coming over?

We would highly recommend this book. It was an easy story to follow and really helped us learn about fair shares.

We give this book a 9 out of 10.

By Class 218
