Description/Notes
How tall would a pile of 1000 acorns be? And if those acorns grew into 1,000 oak trees, how big would that forest be? As children learn about large numbers, counting becomes less practical and understanding these numbers becomes more and more important. In this playful and mathematically sound book, children will develop an understanding of how big, how small, how long and how tall 1,000 really is! A playful look at the number 1000 that will help children develop an understanding of numeracy. If you had a thousand freckles sprinkled across your nose, you'd think it was a lot. But if you had only a thousand hairs on your head, you'd be wishing for a whole lot more!Big, small, short, tall -- kids explore different ways of looking at this large number through estimation rather than actual counting. A playful look at the number 1000 that will help children develop an understanding of numeracy.
