Download or read book Learning and Teaching K 8 Mathematics written by Janet M. Sharp and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 2005 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Real students... Real teaching... Real learning!" Try it! This hands-on text takes an ACTIVE approach to teaching mathematics in grades K-8. Activities are embedded in each chapter for adult learners to complete to ensure that they are grasping the mathematics. Completing these activities provides future teachers with invaluable insight into how children think about and learn math, thereby equipping them with the skills to make sound instructional decisions. See it! Throughout the book and on the enclosed "Understanding Children's Mathematical Thinking" VideoWorkshop CD-ROM, we see coauthor Karen Bush Hoiberg in action. A presidential award-winning elementary teacher, Karen provides a multitude of practical applications and real-world examples to give preservice teachers insight into how children think mathematically. Teach it! The text is organized around four general themes within each major mathematical content area: thinking about the mathematics, learning theories, the role of the teacher, and making algebraic connections. By actually DOING mathematics while analyzing learning theory, novice or preservice teachers are able to connect chapter concepts to actual classroom teaching practices. ""Many methods books assume that their readers know very little about learning theory and proceed to either overwhelm their readers or trivialize the material through a superficial chapter. Sharp and Hoiberg integrate learning theory throughout their text and show how learning theory can be viewed through mathematics in real classrooms without becoming tedious or distracting."" --Chris Ohana, Western Washington University, Field Editor for the NSTA Journal of Science and Children ""College students planning to be elementary school teachers need a framework and examples that reflect contemporary notions about the teaching and learning of mathematics. Similarly, college methods professors need materials that challenge their students with respect to the mathematical content they are expected to teach and how they can encourage children's mathematical thinking. The needs of both may be met with Learning and Teaching K-8 Mathematics."" --Tom Romberg, University of Wisconsin-Madison ""Perhaps one of the most important aspects of the text is the continual reference to the classroom, seeing it not only in form of vignettes, but hearing it from the voice of a practicing teacher, and also the inclusion of excerpts of questioning techniques used by other practicing teachers. This constant reference to the classroom will help preservice teachers become much more reflective mathematics teachers."" --William Fisher, California State University, Chico

Download or read book Elementary Mathematics Pedagogical Content Knowledge written by James E. Schwartz and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 2008 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schwartz Powerful Ideas in Elementary Mathematics: Pedagogical Content Knowledge for Teachers, 1/e ISBN: 0205493750 "This book would be a great tool for helping [today's future elementary teachers] acquire a 'gut level' understanding of mathematics concepts." - Hester Lewellen, Baldwin-Wallace College, OH "The writing in this text is very clear and would easily be understood by the intended audience. The real-world examples put the various math concepts into a context that is easily understood. The vignettes at the beginning of each chapter are interesting and they get the reader to begin thinking about the math concepts that will follow. Each of the chapters seem to build on one another and the author often refers back to activities and concepts from previous chapters which is meaningful to the reader because it lets the reader know that the information they are learning builds their conceptual understanding of other mathematical concepts. " - Melany L. Rish, University of South Carolina, Aiken Organized around five key concepts or "powerful ideas" in mathematics, this text presents elementary mathematics content in a concise and nonthreatening manner for teachers. Designed to sharpen teachers' mathematics pedagogical content knowledge, the friendly writing style and vignettes relate math concepts to "real life" situations so that they may better present the content to their students. The five "powerful ideas" (composition, decomposition, relationships, representation, and context) provide an organizing framework and highlight the interconnections between mathematics topics. In addition, the text thoroughly integrates discussion of the five NCTM process strands. Features: Icons highlighting the NCTM process standards appear throughout the book to indicate where the text relates to each of these. Practice exercises and activities and their explanations reinforce math concepts presented in the text and provide an opportunity for reflection and practice. Concise, conversational chapters and opening vignettes present math contents simply enough for even the most math-anxious pre-service teachers.

Download or read book Analysis and Algebra on Differentiable Manifolds A Workbook for Students and Teachers written by P.M. Gadea and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-12 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A famous Swiss professor gave a student’s course in Basel on Riemann surfaces. After a couple of lectures, a student asked him, “Professor, you have as yet not given an exact de nition of a Riemann surface.” The professor answered, “With Riemann surfaces, the main thing is to UNDERSTAND them, not to de ne them.” The student’s objection was reasonable. From a formal viewpoint, it is of course necessary to start as soon as possible with strict de nitions, but the professor’s - swer also has a substantial background. The pure de nition of a Riemann surface— as a complex 1-dimensional complex analytic manifold—contributes little to a true understanding. It takes a long time to really be familiar with what a Riemann s- face is. This example is typical for the objects of global analysis—manifolds with str- tures. There are complex concrete de nitions but these do not automatically explain what they really are, what we can do with them, which operations they really admit, how rigid they are. Hence, there arises the natural question—how to attain a deeper understanding? One well-known way to gain an understanding is through underpinning the d- nitions, theorems and constructions with hierarchies of examples, counterexamples and exercises. Their choice, construction and logical order is for any teacher in global analysis an interesting, important and fun creating task.

Download or read book Teaching Math to Multilingual Students Grades K 8 written by Kathryn B. Chval and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2021-01-07 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using strengths-based approaches to support development in mathematics It’s time to re-imagine what’s possible and celebrate the brilliance multilingual learners bring to today’s classrooms. Innovative teaching strategies can position these learners as leaders in mathematics. Yet, as the number of multilingual learners in North American schools grows, many teachers have not had opportunities to gain the competencies required to teach these learners effectively, especially in disciplines such as mathematics. Multilingual learners—historically called English Language Learners—are expected to interpret the meaning of problems, analyze, make conjectures, evaluate their progress, and discuss and understand their own approaches and the approaches of their peers in mathematics classrooms. Thus, language plays a vital role in mathematics learning, and demonstrating these competencies in a second (or third) language is a challenging endeavor. Based on best practices and the authors’ years of research, this guide offers practical approaches that equip grades K-8 teachers to draw on the strengths of multilingual learners, partner with their families, and position these learners for success. Readers will find: • A focus on multilingual students as leaders • A strength-based approach that draws on students’ life experiences and cultural backgrounds • An emphasis on maintaining high expectations for learners’ capacity for mastering rigorous content • Strategies for representing concepts in different formats • Stop and Think questions throughout and reflection questions at the end of each chapter • Try It! Implementation activities, student work examples, and classroom transcripts With case studies and activities that provide a solid foundation for teachers’ growth and exploration, this groundbreaking book will help teachers and teacher educators engage in meaningful, humanized mathematics instruction.

Download or read book Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics written by Liping Ma and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-03-26 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of teachers in the U.S. often document insufficient subject matter knowledge in mathematics. Yet, these studies give few examples of the knowledge teachers need to support teaching, particularly the kind of teaching demanded by recent reforms in mathematics education. Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics describes the nature and development of the knowledge that elementary teachers need to become accomplished mathematics teachers, and suggests why such knowledge seems more common in China than in the United States, despite the fact that Chinese teachers have less formal education than their U.S. counterparts. The anniversary edition of this bestselling volume includes the original studies that compare U.S and Chinese elementary school teachers’ mathematical understanding and offers a powerful framework for grasping the mathematical content necessary to understand and develop the thinking of school children. Highlighting notable changes in the field and the author’s work, this new edition includes an updated preface, introduction, and key journal articles that frame and contextualize this seminal work.

Download or read book Elementary and Middle School Mathematics written by John A. Van de Walle and published by Addison Wesley Publishing Company. This book was released on 1998 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John A. Van de Walle has written a book that helps readers make sense of mathematics and become confident in their ability to teach mathematics to children K to 8. Elementatry and Middle School Mathematics consists of 16 chapters reflecting the view that all mathematics can be taught through a problem-solving approach that motivates children and builds their confidence as they learn. This book thoroughly discusses the new standards and clearly develops four key aspects of teaching mathematics: the nature of mathematics as a science of pattern and order; an understanding of how children learn mathematics; a problem solving view of teaching mathematics; and specific methods for integrating assessment with instruction. Simple yet effective classroom activities are woven throughout the chapters as well as suggestions for technology and literature.

Download or read book Math Lessons For A Living Education Level 4 written by Angela O'Dell and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2016-06-20 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teach math lessons through the creative means of a life storyProvide 36 weeks of instruction based on skill levels rather than grade levelsGuide students by the use of inexpensive manipulatives, including index cards, dried beans, and construction paper! We often tend to compartmentalize when teaching children. In real life, there aren’t artificial barriers between “subjects.” For example, when you are cooking or baking, you have to use the skills of reading, logical thinking, and measuring, just to name a few. In driving a car, you see and read road signs, read maps, and count miles. So why do we say to children, “This is math, this is language, this is about science and nature, and this is history”? The most natural and effective means to teach children is through life examples. Content, story, and the ability to show math in real life make a living math book!
