E-raamat: Understanding the Math We Teach and How to Teach It, K-8

"Marian Small has written the kind of book teachers will keep on their closest shelf as they explore and return to the big ideas of mathematics. In her new resource, Understanding the Math We Teach and How to Teach It, Small brings the support and insight teachers need to be able to teach math with clarity and confidence"--

This guide shows K-8 teachers how to teach math, including discussion of the "whys" behind the math that students are expected to learn in most state standards. It discusses how students learn math, what teachers want students to learn, and research on math learning and teaching; focusing instruction on big ideas and mathematical processes; assessment and evaluation; planning instruction, including dealing with math anxiety; and instruction related to specific topics, from numbers to probability. Chapter problems are included throughout, as are activities, teaching tips, student sample responses, tables of common errors and misconceptions, children's literature suggestions to support content topics, and lists of appropriate manipulatives.
