This wonderful resource is filled with practical, classroom-tested ideas for teaching mathematics with a problem-solving approach. All lessons encourage children to work cooperatively; explain their ideas; listen and question one another; and agree on solutions. Classroom vignettes describe lessons in vivid detail, and samples of actual student work are included throughout. Most lessons implement the use of manipulative materials to help children think about and reflect on mathematical ideas. Lessons in this book provide experiences with sorting, number, graphing, geometry, measurement, logical reasoning, probability, and functions.

Children's Books

Through a variety of games and investigations using dice, cards, and spinners, students make predictions, collect data, and reflect on results. They also develop number sense and reinforce their computation skills. In the process, students learn what makes games fair or unfair and how to tell if they are based on strategy or chance.
