Description
Contexts for Learning consists of: Investigations and Resource Guides - workshop structure involves students in inquiring, investigating, discussing, and constructing mathematical solutions and strategies - investigations encourage emergent learning and highlight the developmental landmarks in mathematical thinking - strings of related problems develop students' deep number sense and expand their strategies for mental arithmetic Read-Aloud Books and Posters - create rich, imaginable contexts--realistic and fictional--for mathematics investigations - are carefully crafted to support the development of the big ideas, strategies, and models - encourage children to explore and generate patterns, generalize, and develop the ability to mathematize their worlds Resources for Contexts for Learning CD-ROM - author videos describe the series' philosophy and organization - video overviews show classroom footage of a math workshop, including minilessons, investigations, and a math congress - print resources include research base, posters, and templates
