Perhaps this would be a good project for college students? Do you mind
if I forward this to the TeachingOpenSource.org mailing list?
I'm not in a position to spear head this effort because of work
overload, but it would be a shame if we let the opportunity to bolster
the 4th grade Math initiative.

We have the offer of a calculus book for elementary grades. Please
take a look at Don's Web site,
http://mathman.biz/
and let us discuss what it would take to get this done up as a Sugar
activity. If others think it worthwhile, I will invite Don here.
I am also proposing that FLOSS Manuals publish the book, and will ask
on the Squeak development list whether anybody would like to work on
this in Smalltalk.

Hi Edward,
To begin with, I would like to contribute my book Calculus By and for
Young People-Worksheets (in ebook form, which is being done by a
former student, and will be ready by May). The book is in Socratic
format, asking questions leading to the different ideas, with an
answer section in each chapter. I have it on a CD now, in pdf form but
wanted to make minor changes-like my new email address, new website
address..Would anyone there like a copy of this CD? There is a list of
materials that would help, in the appendix.
I'd be willing to talk to anyone interested in seeing what can come
from this.
Don
