mo2 Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Not curricula, but books about teaching math in ways that make certain the student comprehends it. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usetoschool Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Kind of depends on what math you use but we use Singapore and I like these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie_0801 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 MOTL is a set of books that do exactly that. Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perry Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics: Teachers' Understanding of Fundamental Mathematics in China and the United States by Liping Ma Might not be exactly what you're looking for, but it's a great book about math pedagogy.

Nan in Mass Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I liked the Beechick one. Maybe someone here can remember the title. Mine is in a box someplace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie_0801 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 MOTL . . . Math on the Level??? Yep. Sorry about that. I just feel cool if I can use acronyms like everyone else. It is a collection of teaching guides and comes with a concept chart, so it is sort of a "build your own" curriculum, except all the info is there in the teaching guides. Does that make any sense? I'm a smidge sleep deprived so my brain is fuzzy. If you are interested and can't find the info you're looking for on their website, jump onto their yahoo group and ask. They're very helpful. :) Rosie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutTN Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 The Liping Ma book, definitely! I am reading and enjoying this one by Ron Aharoni, Arithmetic for Parents:A Book for Grownups About Children's Mathematics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) http://www.jamieyorkpress.com/making-math-meaningful-a-source-book-for-grades-1-5/ I want this but do not have it. Eclectic Manual is free and old and very good. Waldorf Math African Style is my favorite. There is a bit more African Waldorf math in the Grade 3 and Child Development pdfs. Old Childcraft book.
