For courses in Mathematics Methods (Elementary and Middle School) and for classroom teachers

Helping students make connections between mathematics and their worlds - and helping them feel empowered to use math in their lives - is the focus of this widely popular guide.

Designed for classroom teachers, the book focuses on specific grade bands and includes information on creating an effective classroom environment, aligning teaching to various standards and practices, such as the Common Core State Standards and NCTM's teaching practices, and engaging families. The first portion of the book addresses how to build a student-centred environment in which children can become mathematically proficient, while the second portion focuses on practical ways to teach important concepts in a student-centred fashion.
