Overview
For each of more than 120 visuals, the text identifies the key math concept and the Common Core State Standard being addressed and then provides teachers with:
- Mathematical background and context.
- Questions to use with students to lead the instructional conversation.
- Expected answers and explanations of why each question is important.
- Follow-up extensions to solidify and assess student understanding.
This book will be useful to a broad range of teachers who will find new ways to clarify concepts that students find difficult. It can be used as a resource to prepare teachers for the higher mathematical thinking requirements of the CCSS Mathematical Practices. It will also be an invaluable resource for teachers working with students with low reading ability, including English language learners and special education students.
