Download or read book Building Blocks written by Gene I. Maeroff and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A student's entire journey along the educational spectrum is affected by what occurs—and, crucially, by what does not occur—before the age of eight or nine. Yet early learning has never received the attention it deserves and needs. In his latest book, education expert Gene Maeroff takes a hard look at early learning and the primary grades of schooling. Building Blocks offers a concrete and groundbreaking strategy for improving early education. Filled with colorful descriptions and anecdotes from Maeroff's visits to schools around the country, Building Blocks creates a rich portrait of education in America, ranging from math lessons imported from Singapore in Massachusetts to serious but joyful kindergartens in California. He speaks of the need for schools to prepare for the burgeoning enrollment of youngsters from immigrant families and for all children to acquire the habits and dispositions that will make them committed and productive students. Maeroff issues a call to action for policy makers and parents alike.

Download or read book Engaging Young Children in Mathematics written by Douglas H. Clements and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engaging Young Children in Mathematics: Standards for Early Childhood Mathematics Education brings together the combined wisdom of a diverse group of experts involved with early childhood mathematics. The book originates from the landmark 2000 Conference on Standards for Pre-kindergarten and Kindergarten Mathematics Education, attended by representatives from almost every state developing standards for young children's mathematics; federal government officials; mathematicians; mathematics educators; researchers from mathematics education, early childhood education, and psychology; curriculum developers; teachers; policymakers; and professionals from organizations such as the National Conference of Teachers of Mathematics and the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The main goal of the Conference was to work collectively to help those responsible for framing and implementing early childhood mathematics standards. Although it has its roots in the Conference, the expanded scope of the standards and recommendations covered in this book includes the full range of kindergarten to grade 2. The volume is organized into two main parts and an online appendix (http://www.gse.buffalo.edu/org/conference/). Part One, Major Themes and Recommendations, offers a framework for thinking about pre-kindergarten - grade 2 mathematics education and specific recommendations. Part Two, Elaboration of Major Themes and Recommendations, provides substantive detail regarding young students' understandings of mathematical ideas. Each Part includes five parallel subsections: "Standards in Early Childhood Education"; "Math Standards and Guidelines"; "Curriculum, Learning, Teaching, and Assessment"; "Professional Development"; and "Toward the Future: Implementation and Policy." As a whole the book: * presents comprehensive summaries of research that provide specific guidelines for standards, curriculum, and teaching; * takes the recent reports and recommendations for early childhood mathematics education to the next level; * integrates practical details and research throughout; and * provides a succinct, but thorough review of research on the topics, sequences, and learning trajectories that children can and should learn at each of their first years of life, with specific developmental guidelines that suggest appropriate content for each topic for each year from 2-year-olds to 7-year-olds. This is an indispensable volume for mathematics educators, researchers, curriculum developers, teachers and policymakers, including those who create standards, scope and sequences, and curricula for young children and professional teacher development materials, and students in mathematics education, early childhood trainers, teacher educators, and faculty in mathematics education.
Download or read book An Examination of the Building Blocks Math Curriculum written by Douglas H. Clements and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies show that the mathematics test-score gap is evident at every level of schooling and can be linked to students' earlier performance. For example, a mathematics performance gap was found in children as young as three years of age (Case & Griffin, 1990; Jordan, Huttenlocher, & Levine, 1992). Addressing the mathematics performance gap early on, before children start school, has therefore become a priority for preschool programs serving children from low-income backgrounds (Clements, 2004). The authors created a research-based model to meet this challenge in the area of mathematics, with the intent that the model generalize to other subject matter areas and other age groups. The specific goal of their implementation of the TRIAD (Technology-enhanced, Research-based, Instruction, Assessment, and professional Development) model was to increase math achievement in young children, especially those at risk, by means of a high-quality field-centered implementation of the Building Blocks math curriculum, with all aspects of the curriculum--mathematical content, pedagogy, teacher's guide, technology, and assessments--based on a common core of learning trajectories. The primary research question of interest is as follows: Do children who are exposed to the Building Blocks mathematics curriculum in preschool perform better on measures of mathematics skills through the end of first grade than do children who were not exposed to that curriculum? This scale-up intervention took place in preschool classrooms in three urban school districts: the Buffalo Public School system in Buffalo, New York, the Boston Public School system in Boston, Massachusetts, and a combination of the Metropolitan Nashville Public School system and the Metropolitan Action Council Head Start system in Nashville, Tennessee. Research has suggested that early curricular effects may fade over time, resulting in very little, if any, discernable difference in elementary school between students who had been exposed to a given curriculum prior to formal schooling and students who were not exposed to such a program, as those without early curriculum exposure "catch up" to their peers (Barnett et al., 1995). In the Preschool Curriculum Evaluation Research (PCER) project, across all 14 curricula, kindergarten effects were nonexistent, prompting a decision not to collect any further longitudinal data. Similarly, with the scale-up project, the authors saw evidence of curricular effects across outcomes at the end of prekindergarten, but very few differences at the end of kindergarten, and virtually none at the end of first grade. Longitudinal research, including follow through interventions in these grades, is needed to determine if these early gains truly "fade," or if, as the authors posit, the problem is that primary grade curricula and teachers do not build upon them.
