Calling All Math Teachers/ Calling for Change
Do you teach math? Is your teaching of math much like the
instruction you had as a student? (i.e: master the facts, speed
is the goal, learn this process, follow the book’s method,
work quietly/don’t disturb others, etc., etc.).
Do you believe some people have a “math brain” and
others don’t?
Why are US students still scoring well below other
countries in mathematics?
Are any of your students saying, “I just don’t get it!”
Well, this video may help you to sort out how to make
sense of the Common Core Mathematical Practices.
As Grace Kelemanik says, “There are so many of them,
and so little time.”[1] See video below...
