Math Know-How: Answers to Your Most Persistent Teaching Issues, Grades 3-5 de Thomasenia L. Adams

Math Know-How: Answers to Your Most Persistent Teaching Issues, Grades 3-5

Autor Thomasenia L. Adams, Joanne J. LaFramenta
en Limba Engleză Electronic book text – 9 dec 2013
With mathematics curriculum mandates constantly evolving and expectations for student achievement on the rise, teachers are under pressure to bring math to life in the classroom and engage their students in meaningful, relevant ways. This book equips teachers with the know-how they need to make this a reality. In this teacher-friendly guide, Adams and LaFramenta demystify the Common Core State standards in mathematics and provide answers to some of the most common questions they have encountered in their years of working in the field as coaches. Chock-full of examples and vignettes, this book will empower maths teachers with the tools and knowledge they need to improve their instruction and increase their students’ understanding of key mathematical concepts.

Recenzii

"Math Know-Howis a useful resource that underlines best practices for effective mathematics instruction. In a responsive way, the authors made a necessary contribution to help teachers understand how to help develop students' mathematics thinking. The book will be helpful to new and experienced elementary teachers of mathematics."

"As we shift from our individual state standards to Common Core State Standards for mathematics, this book will be a valuable resource in establishing strategies and instructional techniques to better equip teachers for the overwhelming transition for teaching mathematics with a new way of thinking. As a master teacher, it will be a resource that I will turn to for mentoring teachers."

"This resource is a compendium of research-based ideas, tools, and insights that provide teachers, as ever-emerging professionals, the ammunition needed to formulate and implement strategies for success in the mathematics classroom. The material is presented in such a way as to offer pragmatic overviews in digestible chapters that paint a mosaic of the multitude of issues that teachers must face for effective and efficient learning environments. The author engages the reader in reflective questioning – avoiding the notion that effective teaching “just happens” – and instead, providing a view that this is a profession that demands study and dedicated and informed effort to assist students in understanding the richness and beauty that can be found in mathematics."
