New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards Mathematics Introduction For more than a decade, research studies of mathematics education in high-performing countries have concluded that mathematics education in the United States must become substantially more focused and coherent in order to improve mathematics achievement in this country. To deliver on this promise, the mathematics standards are designed to address the problem of a curriculum that is “a mile wide and an inch deep.”

These new standards build on the best of high-quality math standards from states across the country. The math standards provide clarity and specificity rather than broad general statements. In addition, the “sequence of topics and performances” that is outlined in a body of math standards must respect what is already known about how students learn. The Common Core concentrates on a clear set of math skills and concepts. STEM Gives Meaning to Mathematics - National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.

Understanding involves making connections” (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics [NCTM] 2000, p. 64). Challenging students with important mathematics prepares them to solve problems in class and at home. NCTM’s Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (2000) outlines five Process Standards that are essential for developing deep understanding of mathematics: 1. Problem Solving 2. Reasoning and Proof 3. Communication 4. Connections 5. The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) include eight related Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs) (CCSSI 2010).

How then can teachers help students see the importance of mathematics at the time that they are learning a new topic? Perfect math-application opportunities Jamerson teachers share the belief that engineering—putting scientific knowledge to practical uses—presents an ideal avenue for the application of mathematics skills.

Just Get 10 | Veewo. Mrs. Lockett on Pinterest. 70 Cool Math Games | Top Notch Teaching. My little Miss Four seems to be right into math at the moment. She’s always counting things and using her fingers to help keep track of things she’s counting. I wanted to harness this eagerness so I’ve been searching the Internet for some cool math games that I can use with her. Well there are definitely some great math games out there, so I’ve put this list together to help you find some of those games as well. As there are so many games below, to make it easy to find ones that will suit your class, I’ve sorted them into junior primary, middle primary and upper primary games. 1.

Yummy Math | We provide teachers and students with mathematics relevant to our world todayKhan Academy. Math in Art. In our teaching programs, we all learned about the different sides of the brain and different learning types. But with the recession, many schools lost the programs that helped reach all learning types – especially art. Art is more than just creating beautiful pieces, many of the great master painters used math concepts to make their pieces even more appealing. Art helps other subjects come alive!

So how can we integrate math into art for our students? Here’s over 15 resources for covering both math and art concepts in a lesson! You can find even more on my Math in Art pinterest board. How to make an orderly tangle of triangles – great for a geometry class! Teach bar graphing skills (and even pi!) Paint with compasses! Teach symmetry with this self-portrait activity. Tessellations have always been popular STEAM activities – here’s one for fish, there’s plenty more online for all grade levels! These geometric stars can also be used for tracking New Year’s Resolutions! Pin for later: Kidscount1234.com - Shari Sloane - Educational Consultant.

QR Code Quest Scavenger Hunt- Part Deux!

I updated & improved my QR Code Quest Scavenger Hunt lesson I previously blogged about this year & used it again with my AWEsome ESOL kids & 6th graders. I wanted to share those changes with you because it seems as if you like QR codes! Of my top 5 most viewed blog posts 3 have to do with QR codes (and yes, you know I'm barmy for 'em!) In fact, the first posting about this lesson has had, as of today, 17+K hits! WOWIE! Improved worksheet and graphic clues! I found that I needed to make the scavenger hunt questions simpler & the clues more graphic. I then Photoshopped it adding the University of Maryland Terps logo onto her cute red t-shirt because she's a U of M alum & a super fan!

To do this lesson, students use the two iPod touch (Gen4) from Amazon (LOVE Prime!) Share in small groups.
