One of Osprey's most popular titles now available in a handsome paperback edition. The exploits of the 3rd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment have long been overshadowed by those of Easy Company, 2nd Battalion. Yet the actions of the 3rd Battalion during the D-Day landings were every bit as incredible. This is the astounding story of how, after suffering many immediate casualties on landing, the surviving paratroopers fought on towards their objective against horrendous odds. Using fascinating first-hand accounts of the soldiers and the French civilians who witnessed the Normandy campaign, and illustrated with black and white photographs and maps throughout, the authors offer a unique and comprehensive account of the experiences of the 3rd Battalion from training through to D-Day and beyond.

The selected and adapted set of lessons incorporated in this series were chosen from NCTM's Navigations series, with particular emphasis given to incorporating the Mathematics Teaching Practices in NCTM's Principles to Actions: Ensuring Mathematical Success for All. Teachers can use these lessons to help their students build on the foundation of their earlier instruction, expand their mathematical thinking into new areas, and advance in understanding and confidence.

This book contains a carefully selected and adapted set of lessons from NCTM's Navigations series, with particular emphasis given to incorporating the Mathematics Teaching Practices in NCTM's Principles to Actions. Teachers of students in grades 3-5 can use these lessons to help their students to build on the foundation of their earlier education, expand their mathematical thinking into new areas, and advance in understanding and confidence. Each of the 12 Activity Gems includes the following elements: An overview of how the lesson can help students in grades 3-5 develop their mathematical knowledge and abilities, with lists of goals to achieve and all needed materials A detailed three-part lesson plan-designed to Engage, Explore, and Extend-including questions a teacher can pose, challenges that students may face, and ways to continue the learning beyond the activity Activity sheets, classroom images to display, and any other necessary materials, all available both in an appendix and in downloadable and printable form at NCTM's more4U website When used together, these Activity Gems enable teachers of students in grades 3-5 to use purposeful discussion and productive struggle to guide their students toward both conceptual understanding and fluid problem solving.
