MSPnet Academy: Breaking the Cycle of Failure: From Numerical to Algebraic and Geometric Reasoning
MSPnet Academy: Breaking the Cycle of Failure: From Numerical to Algebraic and Geometric Reasoning
MSPnet Academy Discussion
January 11 - January 25, 2012
Ruth Parker, CEO of the Mathematics Education Collaborative (MEC)
Too many students leave our K-16 schools numerically illiterate and wanting little to do with mathematics. This session will focus on how the Standards for Mathematical Practice can be employed and developed as students learn to reason with and about number. We will examine how daily practice with mental arithmetic can develop productive habits of mind, and enhance students understanding of the arithmetic properties and place value while building a more solid foundation for geometric and algebraic reasoning.
