For courses in Mathematics for Teachers.

Develops deep understanding of mathematics that leads to effective teaching

Mathematics for Elementary and Middle School Teachers, 6th Edition connects the foundations of teaching K-8 mathematics to the “why” behind procedures, formulas, and reasoning. Known for her contributions to mathematics education, Sybilla Beckmann helps students develop a deep understanding of the math they will teach.

Future teachers will learn to explain why the standard procedures and formulas of elementary and middle school mathematics are valid, why nonstandard methods can also be valid, and more. Chapters are designed to help students understand how mathematical ideas develop across grade levels. Throughout, the Classroom Activities, Problems, and narrative foster active student engagement in mathematical practices as they study mathematics content. A special Skills Review MyLab^® Math course contains practice exercises, a complete eText, and many other resources; for the 6th Edition, the online exercises have been revised to better align with the content of the textbook. The Classroom Activities, formerly bound in the textbook, are now available online (accessible via QR code or short URL from the text) or in convenient 3-hole punch format.

Mer om författaren

About our author Sybilla Beckmann is a Josiah Meigs Distinguished Professor of Mathematics, Emeritus at the University of Georgia. She received her PhD in mathematics from the University of Pennsylvania and taught at Yale University as a J.W. Gibbs Instructor of Mathematics. Her early research was on Arithmetic Geometry, but her current research is in mathematical cognition, education of teachers, and mathematics content for students at all levels,  particularly for PreK through the middle grades. She has developed mathematics courses for prospective elementary and middle grades teachers at the University of Georgia and wrote this book for such courses.A member of the writing teams for the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and for NCTM's Curriculum Focal Points for Prekindergarten Through Grade 8 Mathematics, she has worked on the development of several state mathematics standards. She was a member of the Committee on Early Childhood Mathematics of the National Research Council and coauthor of its report Mathematics Learning in Early Childhood: Paths Toward Excellence and Equity. She has also been a member on other national panels and committees working to improve mathematics education. Several years ago she taught an average 6th-grade mathematics class every day at a local public school in order to better understand school mathematics teaching. Sybilla has won numerous awards, including the Louise Hay Award for Contributions to Mathematics Education for the Association of Women in Mathematics and the Mary P. Dolciani Award from the Mathematical Association of America. Sybilla enjoys playing piano, running, singing, dancing, weaving, and traveling with her family. She and her husband Will Kazez live in Athens, Georgia. They look forward to visits from their 2 children who are now away working and in graduate school.
