About this ebook
Cheetahs are very fast—and very shy. When two young cubs come to the nursery at the San Diego Zoo, the staff hopes they will help visitors learn more about the plight of cheetahs in the wild. Majani and Kubali are shy, but with the help of their dog buddies they become perfect animal ambassadors.
In Cheetah Math, kids can learn all about division from these baby cheetahs and their canine friends.

Reviews for Cheetah Math
9 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Anna Nagda uses the real world to introduce students to division. Young readers are introduced to two young cheetahs at the San Diego Zoo and provides division problems relating to the cheetahs' care. the right-hand pages tell the story of the baby cheetahs, while the left-hand pages introduce readers to the vocabulary and concepts of division, using graphs and unit representations to illustrate math problems. Several methods are taught, and while the explanations are accurate, many will require an adult to walk the child through it. A great addition to both the math and wild-animal conservation bookshelves.Students love the colofor photos and are facinated with the animals. I would recommend this book for students from 1st to 5th grade.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5We really like these books! The kids love the baby animals and really get the math and how it is relevant to the story and real life. I was also impressed with the different strategies used and presented for division.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Learn about cheetahs being raised in a zoo, and math if you choose. This book about cheetahs Majani and Kubali tells their story about being raised from cubs to adults with dog companions. Division problems are featured so that they may be read along with the story, or left for another day. The math problems range from easy to difficult with a variety of ways to solve them. Graphics such as rows of bottles accompany the text. Along with the story and math are great photos of Majani, Kubali, and their trainers.
