Math and Nonfiction
"Provides lessons that link mathematics with nonfiction. Topics include collecting and analyzing data; using proportional reasoning; and exploring linear and exponential growth, probability, and relationships between two- and three-dimensional objects, pi, and more. Each lesson includes an overview of the nonfiction title, a discussion of the lesson's mathematical focus, a description of the activity, and samples of student work"--Provided by publisher.
Math and Literature
"Uses children's literature as a springboard into activities that engage children in mathematical problem solving and reasoning"--from back cover.
Math and Literature
Annotation This series helps teachers use the imaginative ideas in children s books for math lessons. Organized into four grade-level collections to respond to teachers specific classroom needs, this series includes favorite lessons based on a wide variety of children s books. Teachers will appreciate these books for the enjoyment and excitement they bring to math instruction. With introductions by Marilyn Burns, these books include vignettes of lessons and samples of student work. These lessons, based on popular children s books, address major mathematical topics such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, geometry, algebraic thinking, number sense, and place value.
Sizing Up Measurement
"The lessons in Sizing Up Measurement: Activities for Grades 6-8 Classrooms focus on concepts important to the middle school math curriculum, including length, area, volume, ratios and rates, similarity, and angles, and often make connections among various measurement topics. Each lesson is organized in an accessible, easy-to-use format that includes an overview, a list of materials, a vocabulary list, and step-by-step teaching directions. Students come away from these lessons with a deeper understanding of why and how to measure, and they develop the confidence required to make sense of any situation and the measurement tools involved."--pub. desc.
Mathematics Methods for Elementary and Middle School Teachers
An activity-based approach to teaching with an emphasis on using manipulatives to build conceptual understanding! This invaluable book combines practical teaching ideas, video examples, updated assessment techniques, and the NCTM Assessment Standards to give teachers all the background they need to introduce elementary and middle school students to the wonders of mathematics.
Navigating Through Number and Operations in Grades 3-5
In grades 3-5, students extend their understanding of place value, larger whole numbers, fractions and decimals. They develop an understanding of multiplication and division, mastering and applying basic facts. Concrete materials can help students represent and reinforce these important concepts. Activities in this book invite students to use fraction circles to compare fractions and dot arrays to explore multiplication and the distributive property.
About Teaching Mathematics
A compendium of more than 240 classroom-tested lessons, this essential resource helps teachers build student understanding and skills and understand how children best learn math. In this third edition, Marilyn Burns has completely revised the first section to reflect what she has learned over the years from her classroom experience with students and her professional development experience with teachers. This section has also been expanded to address these important topics: teaching math vocabulary, incorporating writing into math instruction, linking assessment and instruction, and using children¿s literature to teach key math concepts. In an entirely new section, Marilyn addresses a wide range of questions she has received over the years from elementary and middle school teachers regarding classroom management and instructional issues.
