Your Mathematics Standards Companion, Grades 3-5 by Linda M. Gojak,Ruth Harbin Miles Pdf
Transforming the standards into learning outcomes just got a lot easier In this expansion of the original popular Common Core Mathematics Companions, you can see in an instant how teaching to your state standards should look and sound in the classroom. Under the premise that math is math, the authors provide a Cross-Referencing Index for states implementing their own specific mathematics standards, showing which of your standards are the same as CCSS-M, which differ and how—and which page number to turn to for standards-based teaching ideas. It’s all here, page by page: The mathematics embedded in each standard for a deeper understanding of the content Examples of what effective teaching and learning look like in the classroom Connected standards within each domain so teachers can better appreciate how they relate Priorities within clusters so teachers know where to focus their time The three components of rigor: conceptual understanding, procedural skills, and applications Vocabulary and suggested materials for each grade-level band with explicit connections to the standards Common student misconceptions around key mathematical ideas with ways to address them Sample lesson plans and lesson planning templates Cross-referenced index listing the standards in the following states, explaining what is unique to the standards of each state Your Mathematics Standards Companion is your one-stop guide for teaching, planning, assessing, collaborating, and designing powerful mathematics curriculum.
The Common Core Mathematics Companion: The Standards Decoded, Grades 3-5 by Linda M. Gojak,Ruth Harbin Miles Pdf
This book is modeled after Jim Burke’s successful Common Core Companion Series. It is the second of two books (K-2, 3-5) in the series. The book will include a clear explanation of the mathematics within each domain, cluster, and standard and suggested grade level appropriate visual models and representations. It is a book for math teachers who may or may not be math specialists. As teachers plan and develop their curriculum, this book will help them determine important mathematics in a cluster and how that mathematics connects from one grade to the next as well as within a grade.
Teaching in the Fast Lane by Suzy Pepper Rollins Pdf
Teaching in the Fast Lane offers teachers a way to increase student engagement: an active classroom. The active classroom is about creating learning experiences differently, so that students engage in exploration of the content and take on a good share of the responsibility for their own learning. It's about students reaching explicit targets in different ways, which can result in increased student effort and a higher quality of work. Author Suzy Pepper Rollins details how to design, manage, and maintain an active classroom that balances autonomy and structure. She offers student-centered, practical strategies on sorting, station teaching, and cooperative learning that will help teachers build on students' intellectual curiosity, self-efficacy, and sense of purpose. Using the strategies in this book, teachers can strategically "let go" in ways that enable students to reach their learning targets, achieve more, be motivated to work, learn to collaborate, and experience a real sense of accomplishment.

A manifesto for a mathematical revolution Forget everything you've been taught about math. In Burn Math Class, Jason Wilkes takes the traditional approach to how we learn math -- with its unwelcoming textbooks, unexplained rules, and authoritarian assertions-and sets it on fire. Focusing on how mathematics is created rather than on mathematical facts, Wilkes teaches the subject in a way that requires no memorization and no prior knowledge beyond addition and multiplication. From these simple foundations, Burn Math Class shows how mathematics can be (re)invented from scratch without preexisting textbooks and courses. We can discover math on our own through experimentation and failure, without appealing to any outside authority. When math is created free from arcane notations and pretentious jargon that hide the simplicity of mathematical concepts, it can be understood organically -- and it becomes fun! Following this unconventional approach, Burn Math Class leads the reader from the basics of elementary arithmetic to various "advanced" topics, such as time-dilation in special relativity, Taylor series, and calculus in infinite-dimensional spaces. Along the way, Wilkes argues that orthodox mathematics education has been teaching the subject backward: calculus belongs before many of its so-called prerequisites, and those prerequisites cannot be fully understood without calculus. Like the smartest, craziest teacher you've ever had, Wilkes guides you on an adventure in mathematical creation that will radically change the way you think about math. Revealing the beauty and simplicity of this timeless subject, Burn Math Class turns everything that seems difficult about mathematics upside down and sideways until you understand just how easy math can be.
Visible Thinking in the K8 Mathematics Classroom by Ted H. Hull,Don S. Balka,Ruth Harbin Miles Pdf
The key to students' success in math lies in a way of teaching that provides clear evidence of how students are thinking about problems and builds on that thinking to take them to a deeper level of understanding. Seasoned math educators Ted Hull, Don Balka, and Ruth Harbin Miles offer teachers a sequential and developmental plan for integrating visual thinking into current classroom practices, and gradually, but steadily, initiating successful instructional changes in mathematics. Their new book provides teachers with numerous sample problems and classroom scenarios, showing successful teacher interventions at work, and offers guidance on how teachers can adapt traditional problems to promote visible thinking in their own classrooms.
This easy-to-use classroom resource provides a series of lessons, templates, and exemplars for practical classroom application, and will help teachers understand the content standards and the mathematical practice standards in order to develop meaningful mathematics lessons. This book primarily focuses on teachers' procedural knowledge of standards implementation as they apply the information and resources presented in this book. Mathematical rigor in the classroom for students includes lessons that target conceptual knowledge, procedural knowledge, factual knowledge, meta-cognitive knowledge, and the application of this knowledge in context. It also includes opportunities for teachers to develop all three dimensions of rigor as it applies to the Common Core.
