Let me think, 10 because one I love books and two the students need not just reading books but math books which can be a read aloud or can be “read” by them.

A 10+ !!! We would simply love to add this book 100 Bugs to our science shelf, as I always have many aspiring etymologists in our classroom. We go on nature hunts several times a year, and this book would be a great pre reading activity. Of course we would also use it for math and on celebration of 100 Days of school.
This would be great for our 100th day celebration!
You found a 10 here!
lOVE this book! Would be a great addition to our math library. I’m always looking for great math stories for my first graders.
I spend quite a bit of my own salary on supplemental materials for my classroom every year, so it is nice to know about and apply for free things that I can obtain to advance my students’ skills and knowledge of the world they live in. Your information regarding this book and other things is a fantastic resource that I enjoy using so much! I am doing a unit on bugs first thing in September and would love using Kate Narita’s 100 BUGS! A Counting Book with my students!
10 of course – this book would make a wonderful addition to our classroom library. Our joy would be multiplied if we won 🙂

I can even see reading this book as part of our 100 day party, even though it will be February in Minnesota and all signs of bug life are gone!
This summer I have already lived the 100 bug life, wasps in the attic, June bugs on the porch, centipedes under the washer, moths at the back door light, ants in the kitchen, aphids on the tomatoes, mosquitoes everywhere and the only 2 good ones: ladybugs on the windowsill and caterpillars on the milkweed!
Thank you!!!

Our little entomologists will love 100 Bugs as they become the best Pre-K mathematicians!
Please pick me
