National Council of Teachers of Mathematics,U.S. Putting Essential Understanding into Practice: Number and Numeration PK-2
Do your students say that one object is “bigger” than another without attending more precisely to the attribute they are comparing? Do they have difficulty naming numbers from 11 to 19? Do some students still count all while their classmates are counting on or counting by tens?What tasks can you offer—what questions can you ask—to determine what your students know or don’t know—and move them forward in their thinking?This book focuses on the specialized pedagogical content knowledge that you need to teach number and numeration effectively in prekindergarten–grade 2. The authors demonstrate how to use this multifaceted knowledge to address the big ideas and essential understandings that students must develop for success with these computations—not only in their current work, but also in higher-level mathematics and a myriad of real-world contexts.Explore rich, research-based strategies and tasks that show how students are reasoning about and making sense of number and numeration. Use the opportunities that these and similar tasks provide to build on their understanding while identifying and correcting misunderstandings that may be keeping them from taking the next steps in learning.You have essential understanding. It’s time to put it into practice in your teaching.The Putting Essential Understanding into Practice Series moves NCTM’s Essential Understanding Series into the classroom. The new series details and explores best practices for teaching the essential ideas that students must grasp about fundamental topics in mathematics—topics that are challenging to learn and teach but are critical to the development of mathematical understanding. Classroom vignettes and samples of student work bring each topic to life, and questions for reader reaction open it up for hands-on exploration. Each volume underscores connections with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics while highlighting the knowledge of learners, curriculum, instructional strategies, and assessment that pedagogical content knowledge entails. Resources and tasks are available at nctm.org/more4U.Maximize the potential of student-centered learning and teaching by putting essential understanding into practice.

National Council of Teachers of Mathematics,U.S. The Living Tree of Mathematics: Mathematics of Middle School Curriculum through the Lens of History
This book explores the key concepts of middle school mathematics such as fractions, negative numbers, arithmetical operations, variables, the coordinate plane, and measurement formulas. It also highlights the rarely examined notions of the tree of mathematics and language of mathematics. The practical content knowledge is scaffolded using the history of the concepts in mathematics of various cultures around the world. The rich material for culturally responsive pedagogy is provided by relevant historical vignettes and alternative mathematical approaches.
