This title is thus mainly written from a practical "how to"
perspective. A wide range of topics related to education is dealt
with - from the present legislative framework, through various
aspects of teaching and learning to a consideration of assessment
practices, curriculum design, web-based learning and the
compilation of a teaching portfolio.
This invaluable professional resource instructs teachers on how to
successfully implement Guided Math Workstations into K-2
classrooms. With detailed instructions that are easily adopted into
today's classrooms, this book contains everything teachers need to
set up, plan, and manage workstations. Guided Math Workstations
allow teachers to address their students' varied learning needs
within a carefully planned numeracy-rich environment where students
are challenged to not just do math, but to become mathematicians.
Teachers will be able to successfully target the specific needs of
learners with small-group lessons as students work independently on
math workstation tasks. Each workstation task includes: an overview
of the lesson, materials, objective, procedure, and differentiation
tactics; a Student Task card with directions and a materials list
for the task to help with implementation and organization; a
Talking Points card with math vocabulary words and sentence stems
to encourage mathematical discourse; and additional resources for
each task.
Trait expert Ruth Culham has created a diverse set of papers grades
K-2, assessed and annotated them, and designed an interactive
whiteboard CD of exemplars so teachers and students can use them as
the focus of trait-based writing instruction. The papers are
highlighted by key quality for each trait, making it easy for
writers to see what works and what doesn't by simply pressing the
color-coded buttons at the bottom of each projected paper on the
white board. Can be used with overhead projectors as well. For use
with Grades 6-8.
