Mathematics educators have long worked to help students to develop
problem-solving skills. More recently, they have sought to provide
students with the knowledge in the Common Core State Standards
(CCSS). This volume is the second in a series from NCTM that equips
classroom teachers with targeted, highly effective problems for
achieving both goals at once. For every mathematics educator, the
books in this series will illuminate a crucial link between problem
solving and the Common Core State Standards. The 37 problems and
tasks for students in this book are organised into the major areas
of the Common Core for grades 6-8: ratios and proportional
relationships; the number system; geometry; statistics and
probability; and expressions, equations, and functions. For each
task, teachers will find a rich, engaging problem or set of
problems to use as a lesson starting point, with accompanying
discussions that tie the tasks to specific Common Core domains and
clusters. This book provides middle school mathematics teachers
with dozens of problems they can use as is, adapt for their
classrooms, or be inspired by while creating related problems on
other topics. For every mathematics educator, the books in this
series will help to illuminate a crucial link between problem
solving and the Common Core State Standards.
Mathematics educators have long recognised the importance of
helping students to develop problem-solving skills. More recently,
they have searched for the best ways to provide their students with
the knowledge encompassed in the Common Core State Standards
(CCSS). This volume is one in a series from NCTM that equips
classroom teachers with targeted, highly effective problems for
achieving both goals at once. The 44 problems and tasks for
students in this book are organised into the major areas of the
high school Common Core: algebra, functions, geometry, statistics
and probability, and number and quantity. Examples of modelling,
the other main CCSS area, are incorporated throughout. Every domain
that is required of all mathematics students is represented. For
each task, teachers will find a rich, engaging problem or set of
problems to use as a lesson starting point. An accompanying
discussion ties these tasks to the specific Common Core domains and
clusters they help to explore. Follow-up sections highlight the
relevant CCSS Standards for Mathematical Practice that students
will engage in as they work on these problems. This book provides
high school mathematics teachers with dozens of problems they can
use as is, adapt for their classrooms, or be inspired by while
creating related problems on other topics. For every mathematics
educator, the books in this series will help to illuminate a
crucial link between problem solving and the Common Core State
Standards.
