The Literature
Connection: Teacher Reflections
- Although the book Cucumber
Soup is directed toward primary math, 5th grade math activities can
also be addressed.
- Students can build word
problems.
- They can also identify patterns
related to
the number of different insects in the book and
the characteristics of the insects represented in the book.
- Force and mass can also
be addressed.
- How much does the cucumber
weigh in proportion to the insects?
- If a class had a heavy object,
how many students would be needed to push it?
