Read Along or Enhanced eBook: "Trees that once had leaves are bare. They're dressed instead in lacy white. Snow dusts their trunks and coats their limbs with flakes that outline them with light." Join a boy and his dog as they use their senses of sight and touch to identify seven common trees in the snow covered forest. Intricate illustrations and lyrical text make distinguishing different types of trees easy--even in the middle of winter, when only bare branches stand like skeletons against the sky.
Transforming Mathematics Teacher Education by Tonya Gau Bartell,Corey Drake,Amy Roth McDuffie,Julia M. Aguirre,Erin E. Turner,Mary Q. Foote Pdf
This book builds on the Teachers Empowered to Advance Change in Mathematics (TEACH Math) project, which was an initiative that sought to develop a new generation of preK-8 mathematics teachers to connect mathematics, children’s mathematical thinking, and community and family knowledge in mathematics instruction – or what we have come to call children’s multiple mathematical knowledge bases in mathematics instruction, with an explicit focus on equity. Much of the work involved in the TEACH Math project included the development of three instructional modules for preK-8 mathematics methods courses to support the project’s goals. These activities were used and refined over eight semesters, and in Fall 2014 shared at a dissemination conference with other mathematics teacher educators from a variety of universities across the United States. Chapter contributions represent diverse program and geographical contexts and teach prospective and practicing teachers from a variety of socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds, in particular providing accounts of supports, challenges, and tensions in implementing equity-based mathematics teacher education. The chapters supply rich evidence and illustrative examples of how other mathematics teacher educators and professional developers might make the modules work for their unique practices, courses, workshops, and prospective teachers/teachers. It promises to be an important resource for offering guidance and examples to those working with prospective teachers of mathematics who want to create positive, culturally responsive, and equity-based mathematics experiences for our nation’s youth.
Many children (and adults) think of math as a subject that needs to be explored in isolation during a 'math class'. In this book readers are introduced to the many different ways math is visible in a school environment. Noticing shapes in the building, counting the steps walked down the hall, and considering how materials are organized in the classroom all help children notice and name the ways math helps them each day at school. In this book readers explore the math that exists in their environment using the 'see, think, and wonder' thinking routine. Colourful photos and an easy to access text invite both children and adults to explore math in the world around us. Photos can also be used without text to engage children in math talks as they observe and discuss what they see on each page. Educators will find this book to be an effective resource to inspire math talks within the classroom or before heading on a walk around the school. Families can use this book as a tool for helping inspire math thinking and conversation with children during quality reading time together or when reflecting upon children's time at school.

The Monster Who Did My Math by Danny Schnitzlein Pdf
A math-phobic boy faces another dreaded evening of multiplication when a monster suddenly appears in his room and offers him a deal he cannot refuse. After a quick signature on a contract, the boy's problems are solved, and his homework is ready to turn in the next day. At first, everything adds up perfectly. But when the boy's math knowledge is tested at school, his troubles begin to multiply. What did the fine print on that contract read? "In paragraph seven of clause ninety-three, "If you don't learn anything, do not blame me!" When the bill comes due, will our hero have the money—and the math skills—to subtract that wicked monster from his life once and for all?
