Follow the paw prints and get ready to use math to track animals!

1 paw print … 2 paw prints … 3! Scientists use math every day to track animals. Join a real animal tracker to COUNT in the rainforest, ADD animals on the savanna, MEASURE in the ocean, and more. Then test your math skills with special You Can Do It challenges.

This brand-new series demonstrates how math skills can be applied to high-interest topics and careers in Coding, Building, Tracking Animals, and Space Exploration. The K-2 math concepts include counting 1-100 with basic addition and subtraction, using the power of 10, measuring, and simple geometry. Real world scientists, architects, programmers, and mathematicians model hands-on, from-the-field experiences in a way that will make children excited to use and expand their math skills!
