On average, teachers lose half of their teaching day due to classroom disruptions. It is essential, therefore, that teachers have a plan to respond to behavior in the same way they have a plan for teaching content.
Responding to Student Behavior presents a clear and positive four-level system. By practicing and following this system, teacher candidates will find they are more confident and better prepared to respond to behavior in their own classrooms.
This book is designed for teacher candidates enrolled in classes with a practicum or field exp
In this unit, students will gather, represent and analyze data as the essence of good research to understand their world.
The Teacher Guide is designed to provide background information on the mathematics being taught in this unit, the learning environment, mathematical communication and differentiated instruction. Also included:
The Student Mathematician’s Journal presents simulated or real-life problems that encourage students to think, write, and read like mathematicians. They are asked to reflect on what they have learned and communicate in writing on worksheets.
In this unit, students question measurement in the world around them, wondering how heavy a box of toys is, how bit the playground is, and the length of their n
In this unit on measurement, students actively engage in the measurement process to connect their learning and new knowledge to their own personal worlds. As mathematicians, they measure objects in the classroom, at home, and even their own bodies. They make estimates, develop personal benchmarks, and focus on the accuracy and precision of measurement. They examine irregular shapes and develop strategies to find their areas and perimeters, as well as explore liquid volume and capacity.
