Planning math instruction is a demanding aspect of teaching. Teachers need to have an overall sense of the curriculum for the whole year, of what’s going to be taught each month, and of what specifically to teach each day. Planning math instruction demands that teachers have an overall sense of the curriculum for the entire year, a focus for each month, and a specific plan for each day. The guides in this series make it easy to plan all three. In these all-in-one volumes, teachers get a wealth of ideas, organized by month, for the entire school year, covering everything from learning environment and mathematics insight to investigations, literature-based activities, menus, routines, games, mathematics writing, assessment, and parent communication. The books include reproducibles. Topics of study include problem solving, numeration and place value, geometry, measurement, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, algebraic thinking, and more.

About the Author\nDr. Christopher Emdin is the Naslund Endowed Chair in Curriculum and Teaching and Professor of Education at the University of Southern California, and he’s one of the nation’s leading voices on equity in education. The founder of Science Genius and author of the New York Times bestseller For White Folks Who Teach in the Hood . . . and the Rest of Y’all Too, and its sequel, Ratchetdemic, Chris’s work has appeared in The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post.\nSTEM, STEAM, Make, Dream explores the ways that science, technology, engineering, and mathematics can transform all young people’s lives through learning. This includes reimagining our collective relationship to STEM by presenting it as more accepting and accessible than previously acknowledged. Beginning with the ways that STEM has been used to marginalize many children, the book examines the need for the arts – including culture – to serve as an anchor for instruction. It also describes the need for “making” (hands-on creation and tinkering) in establishing relevance in learning. Then, through an experiential approach, the book articulates the value of dreaming of a future that is inclusive of all young people, especially those furthest from opportunity. 
To help all children claim their STEM identity, the book provides educators, policy makers, and community leaders with tangible ways to honor culture, increase equity, and encourage curiosity. The book demystifies STEM and shows a clear pathway to empowering children with the skills needed to succeed in a science and tech-based world. In addition, it offers educators a roadmap to developing future creators, innovators, scientists, and entrepreneurs. This includes providing the tools and knowledge necessary to advocate for sustainable change and address inequity, apathy, and the many other real problems in education. 
To do so, the book combines real-world stories, observations, and research in a visually-rich package that includes activities, inspiring quotes, and key takeaways. To help ground research and theory, readers will hear from – and be inspired by – practitioners, activists, and artists ranging from renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson to founding Wu-Tang Clan member GZA to acclaimed educator Gholdy Muhammad. In profiling these innovators, the book reveals how readers can nurture creativity, spark joy, and promote perseverance in all children.
