Inhaltsangabe

To become a successful mathematics teacher, you must first become a successful mathematics student. Ron Larson and Robyn Silbey's first edition of MATHEMATICAL PRACTICES, MATHEMATICS FOR TEACHERS: ACTIVITIES, MODELS, AND REAL-LIFE EXAMPLES helps students aspire to be the best educators they can be. Peruse the book and you'll find Classroom Activities integrated into each section; modeling Examples that ask students how to model math concepts in the classroom; real-life Examples that model math concepts students will encounter in their everyday lives; and finally, to frame Ron and Robyn's approach, Common Core State Standards relevant to each lesson to provide future teachers with the knowledge of what their students should know at various grade levels.
