How do composing and decomposing numbers connect with the properties of addition? Focus on the ideas that you need to thoroughly understand in order to teach with confidence. The mathematical content of this book focuses on essential knowledge for teachers about numbers and number systems.It is organised around one big idea and supported by smaller, more specific, interconnected ideas (essential understandings). Gaining this understanding is essential because numbers and numeration are building blocks for other mathematical concepts and for thinking quantitatively about the real-world.Essential Understanding series topics include:Number and Numeration for Grades Pre-K-2Addition and Subtraction for Grades Pre-K-2Geometry for Grades Pre-K-2Reasoning and Proof for Grades Pre-K-8Multiplication and Division for Grades 3-5Rational Numbers for Grades 3-5Algebraic Ideas and Readiness for Grades 3-5Geometric Shapes and Solids for Grades 3-5Ratio, Proportion and Proportionality for Grades 6-8Expressions and Equations for Grades 6-8Measurement for Grades 6-8Data Analysis and Statistics for Grades 6-8Function for Grades 9-12Geometric Relationships for Grades 9-12Reasoning and Proof for Grades 9-12Statistics for Grades 9-12

How can you build on young children’s interactions with the world to develop their geometric thinking? What can you say to a student who claims that a diamond isn’t a square because it “stands on a point”? How can knowing what does not change when shapes are transformed help you extend your students’ thinking about the area of geometric figures?How much do you know … and how much do you need to know?Helping your students develop a robust understanding of geometry and measurement requires that you understand this mathematics deeply. But what does that mean?This book focuses on essential knowledge for teachers about geometry and measurement. It is organized around four big ideas, supported by multiple smaller, interconnected ideas—essential understandings.Taking you beyond a simple introduction to geometry and measurement, the book will broaden and deepen your mathematical understanding of one of the most challenging topics for students—and teachers. It will help you engage your students, anticipate their perplexities, avoid pitfalls, and dispel misconceptions. You will also learn to develop appropriate tasks, techniques, and tools for assessing students’ understanding of the topic.About the Series: Focus on the ideas that you need to understand thoroughly to teach confidently. Move beyond the mathematics you expect your students to learn. Students who fail to get a solid grounding in pivotal concepts struggle in subsequent work in mathematics and related disciplines. By bringing a deeper understanding to your teaching, you can help students who don’t get it the first time by presenting the mathematics in multiple ways.The Essential Understanding Series addresses topics in school mathematics that are critical to the mathematical development of students but are often difficult to teach. Each book in the series gives an overview of the topic, highlights the differences between what teachers and students need to know, examines the big ideas and related essential understandings, reconsiders the ideas presented in light of connections with other mathematical ideas, and includes questions for readers’ reflection.

Like algebra at any level, early algebra is a way to explore, analyse, represent and generalise mathematical ideas and relationships. This book shows that children can and do engage in generalising about numbers and operations as their mathematical experiences expand. The authors identify and examine five big ideas and associated essential understandings for developing algebraic thinking in grades 3-5. The big ideas relate to the fundamental properties of number and operations, the use of the equals sign to represent equivalence, variables as efficient tools for representing mathematical ideas, quantitative reasoning as a way to understand mathematical relationships and functional thinking to generalise relationships between covarying quantities. The book examines challenges in teaching, learning and assessment and is interspersed with questions for teachers’ reflection.

How can you introduce terms from geometry and measurement so that your students’ vocabulary will enhance their understanding of concepts and definitions? What can you say to clarify the thinking of a student who claims that perimeter is always an even number? How does knowing what changes or stays the same when shapes are transformed help you support and extend your students’ understanding of shapes and the space that they occupy?How much do you know … and how much do you need to know?Helping your students develop a robust understanding of geometry and measurement requires that you understand fundamental statistical concepts deeply. But what does that mean?This book focuses on essential knowledge for mathematics teachers about geometry and measurement.

Do your students believe that division "doesn't make sense" if the divisor is greater than the dividend?Explore rich, researched-based strategies and tasks that show how students are reasoning about and making sense of mulitplication and division. This book focuses on the specialised pedagogical content knowledge that you need to teach multiplication and division effectively in grades 3-5. The authors demonstrate how to use this multifaceted knowledge to address the big ideas and essential understandings that students must develop for success with these computations - not only in their current work, but also in higher-level maths and a myriad of real-world contexts.Explore rich, research-based strategies and tasks that show how students are reasoning about and making sense of multiplication and division. Use the opportunities that these and similar tasks provide to build on their understanding while identifying and correcting misunderstandings that may be keeping them from taking the next steps in learning.About the Series:You have essential understanding. It’s time to put it into practise in your teaching.The Putting Essential Understanding into Practice Series moves NCTM’s Essential Understanding Series into the classroom. The new series details and explores best practises for teaching the essential ideas that students must grasp about fundamental topics in mathematics - topics that are challenging to learn and teach but are critical to the development of mathematical understanding.Classroom vignettes and samples of student work bring each topic to life and questions for reader reflection open it up for hands-on exploration. Each volume underscores connections with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics while highlighting the knowledge of learners, curriculum, understanding into practise, instructional strategies and assessment that pedagogical content knowledge entails.Maximise the potential of student-centred learning and teaching by putting essential understanding into practise.

Do your students have the incorrect idea that addition “makes numbers bigger” and subtraction “makes numbers smaller”? Do they believe that subtraction is always “taking away”?What tasks can you offer - what questions can you ask - to determine what your students know or don’t know - and move them forward in their thinking?This book focuses on the specialized pedagogical content knowledge that you need to teach addition and subtraction effectively in prekindergarten–grade 2.
