Product Description In our efforts to reform mathematics education, we've learned a tremendous amount about young students' strategies and the ways they construct knowledge, without fully understanding how to support such development over time. The Dutch do. So, funded by the NSF and Exxon, Mathematics in the City was begun, a collaborative inservice project that pooled the best thinking from both countries. In Young Mathematicians at Work, Catherine Fosnot and Maarten Dolk reveal what they learned after several years of intensive study in numerous urban classrooms. The first in a three-volume set, Young Mathematicians at Work focuses on young children between the ages of four and eight as they construct a deep understanding of number and the operations of addition and subtraction. Rather than offer unrelated activities, Fosnot and Dolk provide a concerted, unified description of development, with a focus on big ideas, progressive strategies, and emerging models. Drawing from the work of the Dutch mathematician Hans Freudenthal, they define mathematics as "mathematizing" - the activity of structuring, modeling, and interpreting one's "lived world" mathematically. And they describe teachers who use rich problematic situations to promote inquiry, problem solving, and construction, and children who raise and pursue their own mathematical ideas. In contrast to other books on math reform, Young Mathematicians at Work provides a new look at the teaching of computation. It moves beyond the current debate about algorithms to argue for deep number sense and the development of a repertoire of strategies based on landmark numbers and operations. Sample minilessons on the use of the open number line model are provided to show you how to support the development of efficient computation. About the Author Catherine Twomey Fosnot is Professor of Education at The City College of the City of New York and Director of Mathematics in the City. She twice has won the "best writing" award from AERA's Constructivist SIG and she was the recipient of the "young scholar" award by Educational Communication and Technology Journal. She is an author of several books on mathematics education, most recently, the Young Mathematicians at Work series. Maarten Dolk is a researcher and developer of mathematics education at the Freudenthal Institute in the Netherlands, where he has been involved in the development of professional materials for teachers and for student teachers. He also has directed an inservice project in the Netherlands for teacher educators and staff developers. His work in the United States is related to the inservice of primary school teachers. He is the coauthor of the Young Mathematicians at Work series.

Paperback Albert Whitman & Company

From School Library Journal Grade 3-4?In this presentation that goes from small to infinitesimal, Wells compares the size of a tiny animal (a pygmy shrew) to an insect (a ladybug), which is in turn contrasted with one-celled animals, bacteria, molecules, atoms, and sub-atomic particles. Bright, colorful cartoons and a text that looks like hand lettering in a variety of fonts are jauntily arranged across the pages. Readers are encouraged to try to imagine being the sizes of the creatures under discussion. This lighthearted treatment is fine for the familiar, but begins to become confusing for a paramecium, an amoeba, and bacteria. Viruses are skipped as the narrative continues to include molecules, atoms, quarks, and electrons of the physical sciences instead of a parallel journey through diminishing sizes in the animal world to perhaps ovum, sperm, and DNA. The book has the look of an introduction for young readers. As the narrative continues, however, many terms are introduced, without pronunciation guides even in the two-page glossary, and the cartoon approach becomes cluttered and less effective.?Frances E. Millhouser, Reston Regional Library, VA Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc. From Booklist Ages 6^-9. In Is a Blue Whale the Biggest Thing There Is? (1993), Wells used words and pictures to give young children an inkling of how big things can be. In his latest book, he reverses the concept to introduce smallness. A pygmy shrew looks small beside an elephant, but not when it's next to a ladybug. In turn, the ladybug looks enormous compared to a paramecium. Showing that even a single cell is not the smallest thing, Wells introduces molecules, atoms, electrons, and quarks. The acrylic-and-ink artwork includes touches of humor. Despite the inherent problems in illustrating what cannot be observed, Wells introduces a challenging concept in a way that will entertain and intrigue young children.

The book overflows with supports for the mathematical work of the teacher in pressing students, provoking, supporting, pointing, and attending with care. - Hyman Bass and Deborah Loewenberg Ball In Children's Mathematics: Cognitively Guided Instruction, Thomas Carpenter, Megan Franke, and Linda Levi helped tens of thousands of teachers understand children's intuitive problem-solving and computational processes. More important, the authors helped teachers figure out how to use that knowledge to enhance students' understanding of arithmetic. In this book the same author team takes teaching and learning mathematics to the next level, revealing how children's developing knowledge of the powerful unifying ideas of mathematics can deepen their understanding of arithmetic and provide a solid foundation for learning algebra. This book also shows how teachers can increase their own knowledge of mathematics in the process of interacting with their children and reflecting about their practice. Thinking Mathematically provides numerous examples of classroom dialogues that indicate how algebraic ideas emerge in children's thinking and what problems and questions help to elicit them. Special features of the book help teachers develop their own understanding of mathematics along with their students': Teacher Commentaries capture the voices of a number of teachers, providing realistic portrayals of what happens in class. End-of-chapter Challenges offer a variety of problems and activities for teachers to increase their own knowledge of mathematics and to help their students develop algebraic thinking. An accompanying CD provides rich illustrations of ideas in the bookextended interactions with individual children or classroom episodesall clearly linked to the text.

Review "This text gives very specific learning struggles that are not addressed in general math texts. The examples paint real children with real struggles who are diagnosed with very clear and easy to understand methods. I found the DAS and MIP very helpful in showing how to assist students in their struggles with specific concepts." - Dr. Yolanda De La Cruz, Arizona State University "It provides a closer look at the problems students exhibit through the examples of the student's work and then gives the preservice teacher clues as to how to help the student." - Dr. John W. Dougherty, Lindenwood University From the Back Cover Until now, no book has dedicated itself more fully to addressing the cognitive needs of children in grades 1 through 6 who underachieve in mathematics. Teaching Children Who Struggle with Mathematics: A Systematic Approach to Analysis and Correction is designed to help teachers assess these students' individual abilities and characteristics as well as choose appropriate and effective instructional strategies. The book is rich with case studies of underachieving math students and assorted examples of how teachers can assess and differentiate instruction for these students through the use of two key text features-the Data Analysis Sheet (DAs) and the Math Improvement Plan (MIP). The DAS is used to record observed student behavior in a variety of relevant categories and to use such recordings to assess the student's math skills. The. MIP then provides an individualized plan for intervention and instruction upon completion of the DAs. When used together, the .DAS and MIP give teachers two powerful tools for properly assessing and teaching students who struggle with mathematics.

From Parents' Choice® What are the odds of tossing heads four times in succession? How many ways can five band members arrange themselves for a group photo? These are among the 26 puzzles in this book that involve combinations, predictions, luck and chance. Logical thinking is more important than math in solving the brainteasers, although the proofs usually involve mathematical explanations. The cover is a game board in which nine octagons must be rotated to positions to make the colors on all adjacent sides match. A 2000 Parents' Choice® Silver Honor. Reviewed by Ruth B. Roufberg, Parents' Choice® 2000 Product Description Think outside the box! Card Shark, Marble Madness, Sock It to Me! & Dizzy Walk In the beginning there's "Jewels of Xanadu" on the cover-where the chances of unlocking the special color-coded safe could be 1 in millions or 1 in 64, depending on where you start. And once you've survived that, another 25 mind-stretching puzzles await. Win a coin-toss game with three friends, calculate the real odds of winning the lottery, predict the chance of pulling the one green marble out of a box of red ones. Think like a mathematician, making sense of seemingly random events. Bring a pencil, but remember-(1) you don't have to be a whiz to play, because (2) the most important skills you'll need are curiosity and an open mind. (Solutions and explanations are provided of course!)

Product Description Good teaching is the critical factor that helps students "get" math. Thanks to Susan O'Connell, you can provide top-notch mathematics instruction - even if you've never felt comfortable teaching it before. With Now I Get It, you'll increase your repertoire of instructional strategies as well as receive the information, reflective tools, and resources you need to make them work effectively. As she did in her popular Introduction to Problem Solving, O'Connell provides a practical guide to teaching math for understanding and clarity, only this time moving one step further to provide a complete picture of elementary math instruction. She presents advice and insight about: what a teacher's role is during math time how to actively engage your students in mathematical thinking, and how to know when they are connecting with math concepts or may require further support how to teach both computational skills and mathematical thinking skills how to use problem solving, cooperative projects, writing assignments, and real-life examples to stimulate and maintain interest how to incorporate math talk and vocabulary into your lessons. But Now I Get It is much more than a book of teaching ideas. Aligned to the NCTM standards and filled with smart ideas about helping students reach mandated testing benchmarks, it also offers all the research and theory you need to provide best-practice instruction. Also included are reflection questions to stimulate professional growth and an accompanying CD that bolsters your teaching with more than one hundred pages of reproducible lists, charts, activities, and rubrics, some of which can be modified to fit your specific classroom needs. Help children make mathematics an integral part of how they live in and appreciate their world. Read Now I Get It, and find new ways to make your math instruction more effective and more exciting for yourself and your students. About the Author Susan O'Connell is the editor of Heinemann's Math Process Standards series, as well as the author its volumes Introduction to Problem Solving (grades PreK - 2, 3 - 5, and 6 - 8) and Introduction to Communication (grades PreK - 2, 3 - 5, and 6 - 8).

Product Description The sample assessment items in this volume are sorted according to the strands of number and operations, algebra, geometry, measurement, and data analysis and probability. Because one goal of assessment is to determine students abilities to communicate mathematically, the writing team suggests ways to extend or modify multiple-choice and short-answer items to elicit students thinking. The writers also present various rubrics as examples of how teachers might score extended-response questions. When students know in advance how their answers will be evaluated, they will strive to meet expected criteria. The hope is that teachers will find this material useful as they plumb their students thinking and consider how students responses can guide their instructional decisions.

For novices this book is an enticing invitation to participate in mathematics reform. - Teaching Children Mathematics Mathematical Power is a book that shows how to bring the goals of the NCTM Standards to life in a classroom on a day-to day basis. Although it is the story of one classroom, the implications go far beyond this classroom. As the teachers here struggle to examine their practices, teachers will connect with them and gain a clearer picture of what it means to teach mathematics for understanding. These teachers turn theory into actual classroom practice while addressing the complexities of: selecting new mathematics content planning for instruction establishing a collaborative learning environment helping children learn to make choices and take responsibility for their learning meeting the academic and social needs of all children keeping records of children's work assessing for understanding. Ruth Parker brings to this book an in-depth understanding of the goals of mathematics reform efforts, a belief in children as caring and powerful sense makers, and a long history of working to make schools more relevant and meaningful places for children and teachers.

Paperback Teacher Ideas Press

From School Library Journal This invaluable book links national math standards with picture books and folktales published primarily within the last five years. Topics covered include numbers and operations, algebra, geometry, measurement, data analysis and probability, problem solving, and reasoning and proof. There are generally three to four lessons per unit, each focusing on a different book. Rosemary Wells's Bunny Money inspires small group role-playing after which youngsters describe their own shopping sprees, creating money problems along the way. After reading Janet Stevens's Tops and Bottoms, students learn that fractions, too, have tops (numerators) and bottoms (denominators). Each lesson includes a time frame, list of materials, required transparencies, and step-by-step instructions. Additional activities encourage primary-grade children to apply their newfound knowledge and share their discoveries. There are also recommendations for assessing student learning and extending the lesson to other areas of the curriculum such as language arts or social studies. The ideas are creative and incorporate manipulatives, art, research, and writing. There are also adaptations for auditory, motor, visual, and second-language special needs. Libraries will want to stock up on the cited titles so that teachers can make the most of this useful resource. Barbara Auerbach, New York City Public Schools Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc. Product Description For everyone who loved the best-selling and critically acclaimed Math Through Children's Literature, now there's Math Links. Updated to reflect the NCTM 2000 standards, each of the 36 math lessons complements a picture book and introduces activities using calculators, manipulatives, computers, games, projects, performances, and problem-solving challenges. The direct instruction and discovery strategies are supported by assessment recommendations, extension activities, and software and literary resource lists. Activity adaptations take into consideration learning differences and disabilities.

Book Description What makes mathematics so confusing to students? To succeed in the study of arithmetic, geometry, or algebra, students must learn what is effectively a second language of mathematical terms and symbols. In Literacy Strategies for Improving Mathematics Instruction, Joan M. Kenney and her coauthors describe common ways in which students misinterpret the language of mathematics, and show teachers what they can do to ensure that their students become fluent in that language. The authors synthesize the research on what it takes to decode mathematical text, explain how teachers can use guided discourse and graphic representation to help students develop mathematical literacy skills, offer guidance on using action research to enhance mathematics instruction, and discuss the importance of student-centered learning and concept-building skills in the classroom. Real-life vignettes of student struggles illuminate the profound effect of literacy problems on student achievement in mathematics. This book will help teachers better understand their studentsâ?? difficulties with mathematics and take the steps necessary to alleviate them. Abundantly researched and filled with helpful strategies and resources, it is an invaluable resource for mathematics teachers at all levels. Joan M. Kenney has been both a research scientist and a mathematics teacher at the secondary and college levels. Most recently, she served as codirector of the Balanced Assessment Program at the Harvard University Graduate School of Education.

Paperback Lawrence Erlbaum

Review Ma's book is a significant contribution to mathematics education because it begins to tackle the important and complex question of what is mathematical knowledge for elementary teaching. In doing so, she helps us to understand elementary mathematics as a complex and demanding subject that is to be taken seriously. -Contemporary Psychology Elementary school teachers need as deep an understanding of the mathematics they teach as high school teachers need of what they teach. Both need a deep knowledge of the mathematics which comes in later grades, at least three or four, for this knowledge should influence how topics are taught. -Mathematicians and Educational Reform Must reading for those who call for more mathematics and those who champion reform pedagogy in teacher education. -CHOICE ...Ma has done a masterful job of showing how the conceptual approach of Chinese elementary school teachers succeeds where the procedural approach of their American counterparts flounders....I highly recommend this brief volume to elementary school teachers who wish to improve their teaching of mathematics. I also recommend it to all university teacher educators who want their students to develop that 'profound understanding of fundamental mathematics' that allows Chinese students to outscore their American counterparts in international assessments. -Mathematics Teaching in the Middle Schools The contributions of this book are multifaceted....This book is an excellent resource and will interest anyone involved in teaching preservice teachers, as well as researchers concerned with teachers' knowledge of content and methods. -Teaching Children Mathematics Even beyond education, the book supports the need for, and indeed the educational benefits of, changing professional teaching conditions for U.S. teachers....it provides some food for thought for everyone involved in improving mathematics education. And it supports the necessity, highlighted in NCTM's Standards documents, that even at the elementary school level, students can, and should, learn challenging mathematics. -NCTM News Bulletin For all who are concerned with mathematics education...Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics is an important book. For those who are skeptical that mathematics education research can say much of value, it can serve as a counterexample. For those interested in improving precollege mathematics education in the U.S., it provides important clues to the nature of the problem. An added bonus is that, despite the somewhat forbidding educationese of its title, the book is quite readable....I recommend this book! -Notices of the AMS Ma's work has been well received on both sides of the so-called math wars....Supporters of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) reform agenda are pleased by her stress on real understanding as opposed to mere computational competence. -American Scientist. ...a book that is becoming a stealth hit for math junkies on both sides of the 'math wars,' and a must read for anyone interested in solving the problems of public schools. -The Christian Science Monitor Electronic Edition The book is earning praise both from some of those who support changes proposed in the NCTM Standards and from some of those who oppose them, and it is sparking discussion. It is also helping to unify some disparate forces in mathematics education on at least a few ideas for continuing positive changes....[the book] provides some food for thought for everyone involved in improving mathematics education. -NCTM News Bulletin Mathematical performance of children in countries in the west like the USA and the UK is a constant source of concern when comparisons are made with achievements in countries in the Far East and Eastern Europe. Liping Ma's book provides valuable insights into possible explanations for this disparity--and these have obvious implications for the training of mathematics teachers in any country. -British Journal of Educational Technology Both sides in the math wars claim Dr. Ma as their own.

Book Description You don't have to learn math by yourself! Solving problems in groups is exciting, effective, and equitableit helps all students succeed in math. Get It Together is a collection of over 100 mathematics problems for groups of 26 students. The problems cover a wide range of math topics such as logic, functions, algebra, geometry, measurement, and number patterns at various levels of difficulty. Each problem has the same format: six clue cards provide the information needed to solve a problem. Since each member of the group has a different bit of information, everyone works together to arrive at a solution. In one problem, only some people get sick after eating a potluck meal. Was it the swamp chicken, the cheesecake, or something else? The group collaborates to discover which food was the culprit. This book is an excellent resource with teacher information on cooperative groups, assessment, problem solving and the use of manipulatives.

Today's Catholic Teacher, January, 1999 Engaging mathematics activities interweave literature, writing, art, and fun to bring key math concepts and skills to life. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Book Description In an artful interweaving of mathematics and literature, this series of lively mathematics activities jumps off from one of the well-known "Frog and Toad" stories, "The Lost Button." The story leads to free exploration of buttons, then sorting and classifying and a "Guess the Sort" game. Students design their own buttons and use a graphing grid to organize data. Students also "guesstimate" the number of small plastic frogs in a jar and the number of lima beans in a handful to develop the valuable life skill of estimating. A "Frog Pond" board game helps students develop strategic-thinking skills. The "Hop to the Pond Game" is an experiment in probability and statistics. In the newly revised guide, all grade levels play the fair version of "Hop to the Pond" with six frogs. Then grades 13 play the unfair version with 12 frogs. Emphasis throughout is on student cooperation. The California Math Council has named Frog Math as a recommended replacement unit. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Paperback Lawrence Erlbaum

Review ...the text is an excellent resource for current and future teachers, as well as parents interested in an NCTM standards-based teaching approach. -Science, Books, and Films The strength of the book is its thoroughness in addressing the curriculum, instruction, and assessment challenges of high-quality K-8 mathematics programs. I would recommend the book as a worthwhile addition to a resource library or as a textbook in a two-semester methods sequence in mathematics. -Teaching Children Mathematics Both the mathematical and pedagogical content in the book are of high quality, attempting to develop background knowledge about a topic as well as a deeper experiential and applied understanding of the topic. -Horizon Research Product Description Description This text is the product of a seven year effort to develop an elementary mathematics methods text that fully implements the NCTM standards for mathematics teaching and learning. These standards do not recommend a band-aid approach to reform, that is, supplementing existing practices with some new techniques to better accomplish the same old goals. Instead the standards propose radical surgery, profound changes in what and how mathematics is taught and assessed. That is the purpose of this text, to show how to make mathematics instruction consistent with all three of the central NCTM tenets: 1. Making mathematics relevant to the everyday lives of students. 2. Making mathematics a problem-based or reasoning-based activity. 3. Making mathematics a meaningful (understandable) learning activity. Features Investigative Approach--The author imbeds these three tenets in what he labels the investigative approach to mathematics instruction. It involves a unique format in which students interact with the text material through a series of reader inquiries that explore key ideas about mathematics, children's mathematical learning, and mathematical teaching. These inquiries constitute the core of the book. Personalized Teaching Guide--To encourage personalized learning, the pages of this book have been perforated and 3-hole punched so that its contents can be reorganized and/or mixed with materials from other sources to form a Personalized Teaching Guide. In short, this book should be viewed as a starting point in the long road to professional development in mathematics instruction.

Review I hope this book receives a wide readership, as it can be an effective tool in encouraging the practice of alternative assessment in grades K-6 and reflection on the entire process of assessment.Teaching Children Mathematics Product Description I hope this book receives a wide readership, as it can be an effective tool in encouraging the practice of alternative assessment in grades K-6 and reflection on the entire process of assessment. - Teaching Children Mathematics Jean Moon and Linda Schulman offer practitioners a new approach to assessment-one that is comprehensive, practical, and interactive. Recognizing the process-oriented nature of alternative assessment, they contend that the more we "do" alternative assessment, the more we learn about it. Their book encourages and enhances that "doing" process. Finding the Connections emphasizes the conceptual links among assessment, instruction, and curriculum, focusing on classroom practices in grades K-6. It provides a model for integrating assessment with instruction; ideas for communicating with parents, students, and administrators; and guided opportunities to practice and reflect upon the assessment process. By sharing their experiences, the authors also help readers develop their own assessment methods. Classroom teachers, mathematics educators, mathematics specialists, curriculum developers, administrators, and other practitioners interested in the general field of assessment will find this book essential reading.

Excerpts from Scientific American, December, 1989. FAMILY MATH is what it claims, a guide for parents and children to work together not on passive tasks of rote learning but in active game play, solving problems, experimenting and even discovering. The tools are many but familiar: cups and playing cards and beans, paper and pencil and scissors, for some a watch with a second hand, and a $5 calculator. What to do is neatly shown in the 100 or more math activities that are laid out in this cheerfully illustrated, informal book. High aims include the growth of confidence no less than skill and a glimpse at how careers open in this world with math. This is a curriculum for informal math education, so badly needed. Book Description How can parents help their children with math at home? With over 300 pages of lively activities, the classic FAMILY MATH book represents one of the greatest strides taken to involve parents in the mathematics education of their children. Using easy instructions and simple objects such as beans, blocks, pennies, buttons, and string, parents and kids solve problems together. FAMILY MATH is a rich resource of math curriculum including number and estimation, logical thinking, probability and statistics, geometry, measurement, and calculators. The stimulating games, puzzles, and projects entice kids in playful ways to master math concepts. Because this book reinforces the basic school curriculum, it is also a must for teachers. The book has a step-by-step description of how to organize a FAMILY MATH class in your community. For families with children five to twelve years old. Grades K-8. 318 pp

Paperback Association for Supervision & Curriculum Deve

Book Description Have you ever wondered why students too often have only a rudimentary understanding of mathematics, why even rich and exciting hands-on learning does not always result in "real" learning of new concepts? The answer lies in whether students have actually learned mathematical concepts, rather than merely memorizing facts and formulas. Concept-Rich Mathematics Instruction is based on the constructivist view that concepts are not simply facts to be memorized and later recalled, but rather knowledge that learners develop through an active process of adapting to new experiences. The teacher's role is critical in this process. When teachers prompt students to reflect on their experiences and report and answer questions verbally, students must re-examine and even revise their concepts of reality. Meir Ben-Hur offers expert guidance on all aspects of Concept-Rich Mathematics Instruction, including *Identifying the core concepts of the mathematics curriculum. *Planning instructional sequences that build upon concepts that students already understand. *Designing learning experiences that provoke thoughtful discussions about new concepts and prepare students to apply these concepts on their own. *Identifying student errors, particularly those caused by preconceptions, as important sources of information and as key instructional tools. *Conducting classroom dialogues that are rich in alternative representations. *Using a variety of formative assessment methods to reveal the state of students' learning. *Incorporating problem-solving activities that provoke cognitive dissonance and enhance students' cognitive competence. Concept-Rich Mathematics Instruction is grounded in the belief that all students can learn to think mathematically and solve challenging problems. If you're looking for a powerful way to improve students' performance in mathematics and move closer to fulfilling the NCTM standards, look no further: this approach provides the building blocks for constructing a first-class mathematics program.

Product Description For those who devour Comprehending Math as I did, their teaching will be clearer, bolder, more connected. And for the ultimate beneficiaries, they will have a chance to understand just how integrally our world is connected. Ellin Oliver Keene, author of Mosaic of Thought No matter the content area, students need to develop clear ways of thinking about and understanding what they learn. But this kind of conceptual thinking seems more difficult in math than in language arts and social studies. Fortunately we now know how to help kids understand more about mathematics than ever before, and in Comprehending Math you'll find out that much of math's conceptual difficulty can be alleviated by adapting what we have learned from research on language and cognition. In Comprehending Math Arthur Hyde (coauthor of the popular Best Practice) shows you how to adapt some of your favorite and most effective reading comprehension strategies to help your students with important mathematical concepts. Emphasizing problem solving, Hyde and his colleagues demonstrate how to build into your practice math-based variations of: K - W - L visualizing asking questions inferring predicting making connections determining importance synthesizing He then presents a practical way to "braid" together reading comprehension, math problemsolving, and thinking to improve math teaching and learning. Elaborating on this braided model of approach to problem solving, he shows how it can support planning as well as instruction. Comprehending Math is based on current cognitive research and features more than three dozen examples that range from traditional story problems to open-ended or extended-response problems and mathematical tasks. It gives you step-by-step ideas for instruction and smart, specific advice on planning strategy-based teaching. Help students do math and get it at the same time. Read Comprehending Math, use its adaptations of familiar language arts strategies, and discover how deeply students can understand math concepts and how well they can use that knowledge to solve problems. About the Author Arthur Hyde is a professor of mathematics education at NationalLouis University. While a high school mathematics teacher in Philadelphia, he obtained doctorate in curriculum and instruction from the University of Pennsylvania. He has conducted extensive professional development programs in Chicago and surrounding school districts.

From the Back Cover Assess students' performance, attitudes, and abilities across the range of elementary mathematical skills with this informal assessment tool! Designed to spark conversations between teachers and students, Guillaume's Classroom Mathematics Inventory for Grades K-6: An Informal Assessment, 1/e (CMI) is an effective means of evaluating students' conceptual understanding, computational proficiency, and problem-solving abilities. It may also be used to assess mathematical attitudes and dispositions. For preservice and inservice teachers alike! The CMI is fully standards-based, helping teachers measure student performance aligned with NCTM standards, as well as standards set by a number of states. The CMI helps preservice teachers forge the link between assessment and instruction as they determine students' current progress and use results to plan instruction. It also provides research results in mathematics achievement to help classroom teachers understand how other students in the nation fare related to the content presented in each chapter. Features: The CMI "Toolkit" includes manipulatives, allowing teachers to assess and support student understanding in ways that are not purely linguistic. The K-6 content span of the CMI assessment will allow teachers to assess an individual child's performance, whether it is below grade-level expectations or exceeds them. The CMI discusses the quality of assessment that drives instructional planning, providing teachers with strategies to improve the reliability of their assessments. Interpretation of assessment is a challenge for teachers who are faced with many assessment results. The CMI gives advice on planning instruction based on results. About the author: Andrea Guillaume is Professor of Elementary & Bilingual Education at California State University, Fullerton. She has written several texts on classroom teaching and mentoring and is vitally interested in issues related to active teaching and learning.. Praise for Classroom Mathematics Inventory for Grades K-6: "This book is a valuable resource for teachers to use when assessing mathematics attitudes, disposition, reasoning processes, conceptual understanding, and computational proficiency." -Regina M. Mistretta, St. John's University "This textbook is an enjoyable read for a teacher and something that is do-able in a classroom-this text is a needed math assessment text." -Dr. Belinda Anderson, Freed-Hardeman University "This is great stuff, congrats to the author...when can I use this? I want it now!" -Dr. Daniel C. Orey, California State University, Sacramento
