I believe students will first be attracted to "Treasure Hunt" by the cover photograph of a boy dressed up like a pirate. They may be surprised that this is actually an "Early Connections" book which is attempting to integrate mathematics and reading. There are nine mathematics activities in this small (20 page)book which students can try out while also learning about map skills such as learning how to use scales, coordinate grids, and landmarks. In the back of the book there is a glossary and also an answer page for the "Treasure Hunt" activities. ( )
