Table of Contents Preface Far from a run-of-the-mill readings book, Getting into the Mathematics Conversation is an outstanding compendium of the very best of the NCTM school journals' offerings on the broad subject of communication in the mathematics classroom. It spans all grade levels and targets all communication forms-listening and speaking, reading, writing, and multiple forms-that a teacher might wish to develop in students. Comprehensive in scope, it is organized around nine topics: the need for conversation, the nature of mathematics, sociocultural perspectives, classroom management, curriculum, learning context, learning environment, pedagogy, and assessment The handy four-color global matrix inserts offer at-a-glance identification of the articles that target a teacher's needs by three dimensions-grade level, topic, and communication form-to instantly guide the reader to the desired content. This valuable resource should be on every mathematics teacher's bookshelf!
