SAGE Publications Inc Bringing ProjectBased Learning to Life in
Book SynopsisGo beyond problem-solving and performance tasks. Bring project-based learning to life!Do you want your students to be more engaged in their mathematics lessons while also amplifying cultural relevancy and equity? If so, proceed to the next level of instruction with project-based learning (PBL)! This book provides the whole PBL game plan designed by an experienced, award-winning teacher and researcher. Whether you want to start with small steps or you are ready for full implementation in your classroom, project-based learning experiences can lead to forever memories and deeper learning for your students. Answering thewhy, what,andhowof embarking on the journey toward PBL, readers will find Need-to-Know questions to open each chapter Student and educator vignettes to identify stumbling blocks and successes PBL Plus Tips that identify those small steps teachers can make to gradually shift toward PBL Your Turn prompts to actively connect ideas to your practice This approachable guide includes everything you need to move from tasks to memorable project-based experiences that leverage student voice and choice and build a welcoming classroom culture!Trade ReviewThis book goes beyond being a primer of how to implement the ambitious and needed ideas of project-based learning (PBL) in any mathematics classroom. It is a book that enthusiastically embraces a wide scholarship of ideas while communicating them with a lightness and whimsy that inspires you to take the needed journey that is intimated in its title. The future of math education lies in imagining classrooms that are not only equitable in their design, but also equitable in their implementation. The best mathematical experiences lie in wait with PBL. This book must be considered the gold standard for creating those student and teacher experiences. -- Sunil Singh * Pickering, ON, Canada *With compelling stories and practical strategies, McHugh gives us a vision of mathematics education that empowers all learners to experience engaging, effective, and meaningful learning. In the scenarios that McHugh brings to life, students use math to tackle projects that matter to them. When guided by teachers who know how to support each learner’s journey, these projects deepen students’ understanding of rigorous content. More importantly, students build their confidence to use math as a tool for asking questions, seeking answers, and making contributions. -- Suzie Boss * Portland, OR *I have not seen and cannot imagine a more comprehensive book about project- based learning and math than this one. It feels like the time has finally come for new approaches to teaching math, and McHugh provides a detailed yet readable road map, based on her own practice and drawing from many expert sources. I love how she includes so many classroom-tested examples, stories, and practical tools. Her depth of experience and compassion for students shines through! -- John Larmer * Mill Valley, CA *I couldn’t stop smiling while reading this book. McHugh shows how students can experience math in ways that not only are memorable and relatable, but spark curiosity as well. I cannot wait to implement what I’ve learned from this book into my teaching practice. -- Howie Hua * Fresno, CA *From start to finish, McHugh offers a unique glimpse into mathematics classrooms in which all students see themselves as mathematicians—a place in which they experience the joy, beauty, and wonder of mathematics. Her personal stories, abundance of examples and strategies, and clear guidance provide a detailed blueprint for the reimagined teaching and learning of mathematics. This book is a must-have for those who want to finally answer the question, "Why do I have to learn this?" -- Tammy Moynihan * Falls, WI *Most of my experiences as a math educator have been with problem-based learning, not project-based learning, because getting started felt daunting. This book helped me better understand the differences and gave an actionable plan to implement meaningful project-based lessons with students. Educators say we want students to be college and career ready, yet we’re using the same practices that we used decades ago. If you want your students to authentically use mathematics in their lives, this is the book for you. -- Robert Kaplinsky * Long Beach, CA *Through this book, McHugh makes project-based learning come to life in the mathematics classroom. The stories shared throughout the book from both students’ and teachers’ perspectives help us see ourselves in this important work and show the thought process in creating PBL mathematics experiences. The examples throughout help illustrate the key components in utilizing PBL to develop student understanding of mathematics. -- Kevin DykemaBringing Project-Based Learning to Life in Mathematics will support mathematics teachers with creating learning environments where students see mathematics as relevant to their lives and where students have opportunities to answer questions that matter to them. McHugh’s book provides practical strategies to enact this approach to mathematics teaching. -- Amanda Jansen * Newark, DE *This book can help teachers plan and implement authentic experiences for students. With project-based learning, students are less likely to say, "When am I going to use this?," and instead receive individualized mathematics learning opportunities that are relevant and meaningful. -- Christine Koerner * Norman, OK *In Bringing Project-Based Learning to Life in Mathematics, McHugh articulates how project-based learning can transform the learning experience for students and the teaching experience for educators. Working with students and teachers around the world, I see how PBL can be a tool to empower students to be thinkers and problem solvers. Reading this book, a teacher learns why and how to implement PBL in their classroom. -- Chadd W. McGlone * Chapel Hill, NC *Has project-based learning sounded overwhelming to you in the past? In Bringing Project-Based Learning to Life in Mathematics, McHugh does a masterful job of describing the PBL process and providing clear and simple entry points to PBL that connect to your current strengths as a mathematics teacher. This detailed guide will be a staple on your desk as it provides you with opportunities to deepen your PBL practice and give students more rigorous, productive, and equitable learning opportunities that strengthen their identities as doers of mathematics. -- Michael D. Steele * Milwaukee, WI *With Bringing Project-Based Learning to Life in Mathematics, McHugh has composed a valuable addition to the growing number of PBL books! Developing math projects isn′t always easy, but right out the gate, McHugh clarifies what it means to be a PBL mathematics educator by offering an honest reflection about her growth in space. The pages of this valuable book are laden with relatable stories and tangible tools and resources to take today′s math classrooms into the authenticity that PBL offers. -- Jorge Valenzuela * Richmond, VA *Table of ContentsIntroduction Section I.

SAGE Publications Inc Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics,
Book SynopsisA thinking student is an engaged student Teachers often find it difficult to implement lessons that help students go beyond rote memorization and repetitive calculations. In fact, institutional norms and habits that permeate all classrooms can actually be enabling "non-thinking" student behavior. Sparked by observing teachers struggle to implement rich mathematics tasks to engage students in deep thinking, Peter Liljedahl has translated his 15 years of research into this practical guide on how to move toward a thinking classroom. Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics, Grades K–12 helps teachers implement 14 optimal practices for thinking that create an ideal setting for deep mathematics learning to occur. This guide Provides the what, why, and how of each practice and answers teachers’ most frequently asked questions Includes firsthand accounts of how these practices foster thinking through teacher and student interviews and student work samples Offers a plethora of macro moves, micro moves, and rich tasks to get started Organizes the 14 practices into four toolkits that can be implemented in order and built on throughout the year When combined, these unique research-based practices create the optimal conditions for learner-centered, student-owned deep mathematical thinking and learning, and have the power to transform mathematics classrooms like never before.Trade Review"Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics exudes enthusiasm for students, how they think, and how those thoughts coalesce into powerful thinking classrooms. It′s also deeply practical, describing how everything from the teacher′s questions to the arrangement of the furniture can add to your students′ learning." -- Dan Meyer"If your students are not the ones doing the thinking in your classroom, then this book is for you! Peter Liljedahl provides concrete advice on each of 14 research-based practices, along with answers to frequently asked questions and suggestions for getting started, which will help you build a classroom where student thinking is the norm." -- Peg Smith"Peter Liljedahl’s Thinking Classroom framework transformed my mathematics classroom overnight. I was frustrated that despite my best teaching efforts, some of my students still couldn’t solve simple problems by their final exam. This framework gave me a starting point that I started implementing the very next day and next steps to continue incorporating as my practice evolved. Students began to talk to each other, think through complex problems, rely less on me and more on each other and best of all had better success in the courses I taught. The Thinking Classroom framework was exactly what my students and I needed!" -- Laura Wheeler"Peter refers to his research as ′mucking about,′ and that is the key thing for me, that he goes into actual classrooms, and does math with students. We learn the most from being in actual classrooms, talking to students, and figuring out how they think about mathematics tasks. We need our students to be better thinkers, and to see mathematics for what it is: a beautiful way of thinking. We need them to see that they, too, can have powerful insights into interesting mathematics problems." -- Matthew Oldridge"An in-depth action plan backed with significant research and data, Liljedahl’s plan is one that can improve every classroom for the better, and he foresees and addresses any questions or concerns you may have regarding implementation. It is clear Liljedahl understands the students I teach in his list of student behaviors and this book outlines methods to increase the thinking and engagement of all my students. I was able to implement many of the methods the very next day." -- Leslie Mohlman"Peter Liljedahl’s work is accessible, inspired by research, and embedded in classroom practice. He digs deeply and concisely into what it means to teach, learn, and assess in a thinking mathematics classroom. Elementary teachers, especially, will recognize themselves in this resource. Peter makes visible the often intuitive moves of elementary classroom teachers, describing what it is we are doing when it all just works, and how to meaningfully shift our practice when it doesn’t. From the way the furniture is arranged to how mathematical questions are posed, from who holds the pen to how to foster productive struggle and resilience, Peter sets the stage for genuine mathematical engagement in learners of all ages." -- Carole Fullerton"Research in education that turns right around and informs our practice is invaluable in today’s schools and classrooms. Peter uses evidence gathered in mathematics classrooms to directly inform how we make changes to our teaching and learning that enhances learning. This is the essence of evidence-based practice, practice based on evidence from the very classrooms we seek to influence." -- John Almarode"After years of leading lessons in an ‘I do, we do, you do’ format, I found that my students lacked a productive disposition towards mathematics and would give up on problems easily. I knew something had to change, but what was I going to change in my teaching practice and how was I going to get there? After 10 years of experimenting with different pedagogical approaches, classroom environment setups, and developing my own content knowledge, I realize that this book is the resource that could have helped me expedite the transformation I was after - moving from a classroom of "mimickers" to building a classroom of "thinkers". Save yourself years of experimentation by investing a few hours reading this excellent book. Your students will thank you." -- Kyle Pearce"Building Thinking Classrooms is an instructional tour de force for any math teacher. From his extensive research, Peter offers remarkably actionable classroom structures and teacher facilitation moves that get students to think and move forward in their thinking. I′m thrilled it′s finally here!" -- Fawn Nguyen"For years I have heard about Thinking Classrooms in workshops, articles, and online. This engaging book has taken all the pieces that I have heard and seen and presents them in an easy to read, and more importantly, actionable package. Things that seemed a little too "I could never do that" for me now seem doable and I am inspired to begin to make changes. I am left with plenty to reflect upon in my current practice even as I begin to think about moving to a Thinking Classroom." -- Casey McCormick"Building Thinking Classrooms prompts us to reflect on the potential of mathematics classrooms, teachers, and learners. Supported by numerous stories from classrooms, Peter methodically exposes the familiar structures of school mathematics that suppress the potential of learners, then carefully outlines a set of opportunities around which teachers of mathematics can organize a dynamic and responsive classroom." -- Nat Banting"Though there are many innovations in the area of teaching mathematics, few speak with a particular lens in terms of setting up an environment where thinking is made visible and public, where positive interdependence is connected to individual and group accountability, and where students rely on their own agency as well as the wisdom of their peers. One where the teacher is freed up to have eyes on all student work, and watch the thinking process in action. In other words, thinking becomes a clearly visible driver in this environment. All of this supports the release of responsibility to the students. It honors their voices, allows for the bumps in learning, and makes the thinking more public, thus supporting and encouraging risk-taking in a safe and supportive environment." -- Yana Ioffe"This book is timely and provides an accurate portrayal of what is occurring in mathematics classroom across the country. The book is a valuable reflexive tool that teachers can use as they analyze their own teaching practices." -- Kenneth Davis"Peter’s work in Building Thinking Classrooms has been the single most impactful (driver for) change in secondary mathematics education that I have witnessed. I have never seen another idea/approach/model capture so many teachers immediately, and make it past the point from learning to actual implementation in almost every classroom or instance that I have witnessed." -- Mishaal Surti"For teachers hoping to transform their teaching practice, Peter has written a definitive source. Peter’s conversational style makes this work both interesting to read and easy to follow. He describes a rich set of practices that will help mathematics teachers transform, in a positive way, everything about their classroom. Peter turns the daunting challenge into something manageable with advice that is both believable and practical." -- David WeesTable of ContentsForeword by Tracy Johnston Zager Introduction Chapter 1: What Are the Types of Tasks We Use in a Thinking Classroom?

Perfect for any elementary school classroom or library, Mysterious Patterns is an exciting interdisciplinary introduction to repeating patterns.Trade Review★ "This fascinating exploration should awaken readers' powers of observation and appreciation for the intricacies of nature." —Publishers Weekly, starred review★ "Using clear text and outstanding color photographs, Campbell explores the concept of these unusual shapes. . . An afterword reveals more of Mandlebrot's background and work, which will be an inspiration to budding scientists/mathematicians." —School Library Journal, starred review"This beautifully designed volume is a useful resource and, apparently, the only children's book devoted to fractals." —Booklist"Through examples of what fractals are and what they aren't, this photo essay introduces a complex mathematical idea in a simple, inviting way. Using a straightforward text and eye-catching photographs, the Campbells start with the familiar: spheres, cones, cylinders--shapes readers can find and readily name in their environments. But then they move on to the more elaborate forms . . . For visual learners, this is a particularly accessible demonstration of an intriguing concept." —Kirkus Reviews
