Download or read book Integrating Literacy and Math written by Ellen Fogelberg and published by Guilford Publications. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many K–6 teachers--and students--still think of mathematics as a totally separate subject from literacy. Yet incorporating math content into the language arts block helps students gain skills for reading many kinds of texts. And bringing reading, writing, and talking into the math classroom supports the development of conceptual knowledge and problem solving, in addition to computational skills. This invaluable book thoroughly explains integrated instruction and gives teachers the tools to make it a reality. Grounded in current best practices for both language arts and math, the book includes planning advice, learning activities, assessment strategies, reproducibles, and resources, plus a wealth of examples from actual classrooms.

Download or read book Why Write in Math Class written by Linda Dacey and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To help students communicate their mathematical thinking, many teachers have created classrooms where math talk has become a successful and joyful instructional practice. Building on that success, the ideas in Why Write in Math Class? help students construct, explore, represent, refine, connect, and reflect on mathematical ideas. Writing also provides teachers with a window into each student's thinking and informs instructional decisions.Focusing on five types of writing in math (exploratory, explanatory, argumentative, creative, and reflective), Why Write in Math Class? offers a variety of ways to integrate writing into the math class. The ideas in this book will help you make connections to what you already know about the teaching of writing within literacy instruction and build on what you've learned about the development of classroom communities that support math talk.The authors offer practical advice about how to support writing in math, as well as many specific examples of writing prompts and tasks that require high-cognitive demand. Extensive stories and samples of student work from K-5 classrooms give a vision of how writing in math class can successfully unfold.

Download or read book Journal Writing In Math Why Not written by Jolin Olson and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has indicated that regular, systematic writing, over an extended period of time, improves student academic achievement and attitude towards mathematics. In addition there is support that assessment for learning strategies, such as descriptive feedback and peer and self-assessment, are vital to enhancing students' overall performance. Traditional teaching practices of chalk and talk do not meet the needs of students entering our classrooms today. Teachers must be innovative and rely on a combination of teaching methods to stimulate students' interest and to elicit participation in their own learning process. Journal writing has been more commonly associated with English/Language Arts classes. However, current research has found that when students write and explain what they are thinking in a written format, they gain a deeper understanding of the math concepts and skills. This book should help all educators in the K-12 setting see the relevance and importance of implementing the use of journal writing when teaching mathematics.

Download or read book Helping Children Learn Mathematics written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-07-31 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results from national and international assessments indicate that school children in the United States are not learning mathematics well enough. Many students cannot correctly apply computational algorithms to solve problems. Their understanding and use of decimals and fractions are especially weak. Indeed, helping all children succeed in mathematics is an imperative national goal. However, for our youth to succeed, we need to change how we're teaching this discipline. Helping Children Learn Mathematics provides comprehensive and reliable information that will guide efforts to improve school mathematics from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. The authors explain the five strands of mathematical proficiency and discuss the major changes that need to be made in mathematics instruction, instructional materials, assessments, teacher education, and the broader educational system and answers some of the frequently asked questions when it comes to mathematics instruction. The book concludes by providing recommended actions for parents and caregivers, teachers, administrators, and policy makers, stressing the importance that everyone work together to ensure a mathematically literate society.
