Summary:[...]math knowledge and skills in kindergarten are related to later math, science, and even reading skills. Shared book reading fosters children's language and literacy skills, builds vocabulary, and instills a lifelong love of reading. With support from caregivers - that is, interactions with teachers, family members, and other important adults in their lives - these math-based ways of exploring the world can be extended to support school readiness skills like problem solving, puzzling, and perseverance.
