Helping students develop an understanding of important mathematical ideas is a persistent challenge for teachers. In this book, one of a three-volume set, well-known mathematics educators Margaret Smith, Edward A. Silver, and Mary Kay Stein provide teachers of mathematics the support they need to improve their instruction. They focus on ways to engage upper elementary, middle school, and high school students in thinking, reasoning, and problem solving to build their mathematics understanding and proficiency. The content focus of Volume Two is algebra.

Now in its second edition, this essential textbook and professional development resource offers a new foreword by James Hiebert and two important new chapters that focus on the ways in which the book can be used to support the learning of teachers and administrators, drawing on the authors' work over the past decade. Chapter 11 illustrates the various ways in which teacher educators or professional developers might use the materials in the book to aid in the professional growth of teachers, including how to directly improve teachers' instruction practices. Chapter 12 discusses ways in which principals and school leaders can use the book to become better instructional leaders of teachers who are attempting to teach with cognitively demanding tasks.

Robust and effective classroom discussions are essential for providing students with opportunities to simultaneously engage in science practises while learning key science content. Using numerous examples and science learning tasks, the authors show how teachers can plan the lesson to encourage students to not only learn science content but employ disciplinary practises as well. This volume outlines the five practises teachers need for facilitating effective inquiry-oriented classrooms:Anticipate what students will do, what strategies they will use in solving a problem, monitor their work as they approach the problem in class, select students whose strategies are worth discussing in class, sequence those students’ presentations to maximise their potential to increase students’ learning, connect the strategies and ideas in a way that helps students understand the science learned.The 5 Practices framework identifies a set of instructional practises that will help teachers achieve high-demand learning objectives by using student work as the launching point for discussions in which important scientific ideas are brought to the surface, contradictions are exposed and understandings are developed or consolidated.
