Reviews"The Common Core Standards are very important for a math methods course. I teach a math course-emphasizing the standards is not necessary but we like to do it. It keeps the students motivated and answers the 'why are we learning this' question. I like the marginalia." -Blair Madore, SUNY Potsdam, "I really like this chapter. The author has managed to include so many different things: activities, standards, modeling, practice, etc. This book has a fresh approach. The use of color and examples would make it very appealing to the students." -Linda Fitzpatrick, Western Kentucky University, 1. PROBLEM SOLVING. Problem-Solving Strategies.

Edition DescriptionNew Edition

SynopsisTo become a successful mathematics teacher, you must first become a successful mathematics student. Ron Larson and Robyn Silbey's first edition of MATHEMATICAL PRACTICES, MATHEMATICS FOR TEACHERS: ACTIVITIES, MODELS, AND REAL-LIFE EXAMPLES helps students aspire to be the best educators they can be. Peruse the book and you'll find Classroom Activities integrated into each section; modeling Examples that ask students how to model math concepts in the classroom; real-life Examples that model math concepts students will encounter in their everyday lives; and finally, to frame Ron and Robyn's approach, Common Core State Standards relevant to each lesson to provide future teachers with the knowledge of what their students should know at various grade levels.
