Empowering Tomorrow's Math Teachers Mathematics for Future Elementary Teachers , 5 th Edition connects the foundations of teaching elementary math and the "why" behind procedures, formulas and reasoning so students gain a deeper understanding to bring into their own classrooms. Through her text, Beckmann teaches mathematical principles while addressing the realities of being a teacher. With in-class collaboration and activities, she challenges students to be actively engaged. An inquiry-based approach to this course allows future teachers to learn through exploration and group work, leading to a deeper understanding of mathematics. Known for her contributions in math education, Sybilla Beckmann writes the leading text for the inquiry approach--in Mathematics for Elementary Teachers with Activities, students engage, explore, discuss, and ultimately reach a true understanding of mathematics. Beckmann's text covers the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) now implemented in most states. However, states not following Common Core will not find the information intrusive in the text. Personalize learning with MyLab Math. MyLab(tm) Math is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to engage students and improve results. The Skills Review MyLab Math provides review and skill development that complements the text, helping students brush-up on skills needed to be successful in class. The MyLab Math course doesn't mirror the problems from the text, but instead covers basic skills needed prior to class, eliminating the need to spend valuable class time re-teaching basics that students should already know. This enables students to have a richer experience in the classroom while working through the book activities and problems. In addition to basic skills review, the MyLab Math course includes a wealth of resources to help students visualize the concepts and understand how they come into play in an elementary classroom. These includes IMAP videos, Responding to Students Videos, eManipulatives, and brand new Common Core videos, Demonstration videos, and GeoGebra animations. 0134429362 / 9780134429366 Mathematics for Elementary Teachers with Activities plus MyLab Math -- Access Code Card Package Package consists of: 0134392795 / 9780134392790 Mathematics for Elementary Teachers with Activities 0321431308 / 9780321431301 MyLab Math -- Glue-in Access Card 0321654064 / 9780321654069 MyLab Math Inside Star Sticker

Download or read book Where s the Wonder in Elementary Math written by Judith McVarish and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that even in today's high-stakes testing environment, 'teaching to the test' need not be teachers’ only focus as they introduce young children to mathematics. Judith McVarish demonstrates how building a community of learners and using problem solving to engage students can help teachers encourage students’ disposition to creative thinking and reasoning—skills that can otherwise become lost due to the pressure of the many other expectations placed upon both teachers and students. This book offers strategies for infusing mathematics learning and reasoning into elementary school classrooms while meeting curriculum and testing mandates. The teacher researcher component of each chapter provides a vehicle for teachers to bring their own expertise and questions back into the teaching and learning equation.

Download or read book Mathematical Reasoning of Children and Adults written by Alina Galvão Spinillo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-24 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book adopts an interdisciplinary approach to investigate the development of mathematical reasoning in both children and adults and to show how understanding the learner’s cognitive processes can help teachers develop better strategies to teach mathematics. This contributed volume departs from the interdisciplinary field of psychology of mathematics education and brings together contributions by researchers from different fields and disciplines, such as cognitive psychology, neuroscience and mathematics education. The chapters are presented in the light of the three instances that permeate the entire book: the learner, the teacher, and the teaching and learning process. Some of the chapters analyse the didactic challenges that teachers face in the classroom, such as how to interpret students' reasoning, the use of digital technologies, and their knowledge about mathematics. Other chapters examine students' opinions about mathematics, and others analyse the ways in which students solve situations that involve basic and complex mathematical concepts. The approaches adopted in the description and interpretation of the data obtained in the studies documented in this book point out the limits, the development, and the possibilities of students' thinking, and present didactic and cognitive perspectives to the learning scenarios in different school settings. Mathematical Reasoning of Children and Adults: Teaching and Learning from an Interdisciplinary Perspective will be a valuable resource for both mathematics teachers and researchers studying the development of mathematical reasoning in different fields, such as mathematics education, educational psychology, cognitive psychology, and developmental psychology.

Download or read book But why Does it Work written by Susan Jo Russell and published by Heinemann Educational Books. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you ask students, "Why does that work?" do they know what you're asking and do you know what to listen for in their responses? Do you have images of what mathematical argument looks like in the elementary grades and how to help students learn to engage in this important practice? Do you have so much content to cover that finding time for this kind of work is difficult? But Why Does It Work? offers a simple, efficient teaching model focused on mathematical argument for developing the ability of students to justify their thinking and engage with the reasoning of others. Designed for individuals as well as study groups, this book includes access to classroom-ready instructional sequences, each built on a model supporting students in: noticing relationships across sets of problems, equations, or expressions articulating a claim about what they notice investigating their claim through representations such as manipulatives, diagrams, or story contexts using their representations to demonstrate why a claim must be true or not extending their thinking from one operation to another. Establishing a classroom culture where students gain confidence in their own mathematical voice and learn to value the contributions of their peers is a critical part of this work. The authors tell us, "If the idea underlying a student's reasoning is not made explicit, the opportunity for all students to engage in such thinking is lost." As students become a true community of mathematicians, they heighten each other's understanding by investigating questions, conjectures, and examples together. Enhanced with extensive video showing the instructional sequences in action-along with guiding focus questions and math investigations-But Why Does It Work? is a flexible approach that will help students confidently articulate and defend their reasoning, and share their deep thinking with others.

Download or read book The Development of Mathematical Reasoning in Elementary School Students Exploration of Fraction Ideas written by Dina Yankelewitz and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reformers and educators across the U.S. and internationally have called for an increased emphasis on the learning and teaching of reasoning, justification, and proof in K-12 and post-secondary mathematics education. Numerous studies have established that students experience difficulty with these processes. Recently, however, analysis of videotape data of sixth grade student work in an informal mathematics program has identified the use of multiple forms of reasoning by middle school students. This qualitative study, drawing on data from seventeen sessions from a longitudinal study conducted by Rutgers University in a fourth grade class of twenty-five students in a suburban/rural school in New Jersey, identified and traced the development of the forms of reasoning and argumentation used by elementary school students as they were introduced to fraction as number concepts and as they used Cuisenaire® rods and other manipulative materials to make sense of number relationships. The following research questions guided this study: 1. What forms of reasoning and argumentation are elicited as students work on tasks involving the building of fraction ideas? 2. How does students? reasoning change as they revisit tasks introduced previously in the study and as they progress in their development ofmathematical understandings? Data for the study included forty-six videotapes, students? collected written work, and researcher field notes that were recorded during the seventeen 60-80 minute class sessions. The methodology of Francisco, Powell, and Maher (2003) was used for video data analysis. The video data was transcribed, verified, and coded for forms of reasoning, and a storyline and narrative was constructed to describe the results. Supplementary document analysis was used to verify and ensure validity of results. Analysis of the data showed that students used varied forms of reasoning and argumentation. Several tasks were flagged as supportive of the elicitation of varied forms of reasoning, and factors of those tasks and of the environment that encouraged the development of reasoning in the students were explored. The study has implications for effective strategies for the development of mathematical reasoning in the elementary school and ways that argumentation and proof can be introduced during the early school years.
