商品簡介
This resource for teachers presents nine sets of 'explorations' or lessons to help preK-grade 2 students understand concepts related to addition, subtraction, patterns, and special numbers and to help them develop skills in representing and comparing whole numbers, properties of numbers, and operations. The book is structured to support teacher learning in a way parallel to student learning. Each set of lessons contains tips for getting students to think without doing their thinking for them, and then presents key mathematical ideas to reinforce, with descriptions of activities and exercises. The book includes vignettes, examples of student work, and materials for parents. Illustrated with color photos, charts, and illustrations, it can be used for collaborative book study through a professional learning community.
