Recenzii

The Math Teacher's Toolbox can best bedescribed as a referencefor the mathematicsteacher. In it, Rinaldishares the lessons hehas learned after morethan four decades ofteaching mathematics. Full of time-tested ideas for successfully managing a high school mathematics class, this book providesreaders with tips and suggestionsfor everything from grading homework toimplementing group work successfully. The Math Teacher's Toolbox alsooffers readers many good strategies. Thispractical guide could be very helpful to anew mathematics teacher or to a veteranlooking for new ideas. . . .[T]his book contains enough solid information to make it a useful resource for any mathematics teacher.
Nick Rinaldi shares the many strategies he has developed in his lifetime as an extra-ordinary and dedicated math teacher. His strategies are not only effective but supported by the most recent research on teaching and learning. His focus is totally student-centered with his goal being every student achieving success in the math classroom. The many and varied strategies he presents will enable teachers of math to engage their students in learning, understanding, and relating math concepts to the real world. A real treasure.
Nick Rinaldi is not just an educator. He is an educator's educator. Whether his clientèle is high school students, prospective teachers or veteran teachers, his approaches to positive classroom management, student-centered learning environments and support for ALL learners are techniques that EVERY teacher should strive to model in their classroom. The Math Teacher's Toolbox should be required reading in any teacher preparation program and a resource for any math department.
As a teacher-educator with extensive experience in public education, I found Mr. Rinaldi's book to be a practical down- to-earth approach to help new and veteran teachers bring a fresh and interesting perspective to teaching mathematics at all levels. A must read for all who want ways to engage students to be motivated in mathematics.
Nick Rinaldi is a very experienced master teacher who has arranged an extensive collection of student-centered activities that are fun and instructive-for both the teacher and the students! The book is easy to use and inspiring to read. It should not be in every library, but rather in the classroom of every teacher of mathematics.
