Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Exploring Mathematics: Investigations for Elementary School Teachers is a text designed to give readers a highly conceptual understanding of mathematics topics essential for Common Core Standardsbased elementary school teaching.In this book, the development of mathematical concepts, methods, and skills takes place through discussions and analyses of alternative solutions to engaging problems and activities with the use of manipulatives, visual models, and technology. Prospective teachers are expected to make sense of the problems and activities, communicate and articulate their ideas, critique the reasoning of others, and persevere solving problems using appropriate tools.Special features of the book include 'Polya's corners' for challenging problems with multiple access points, chapter reflection writing assignments, individual and group project descriptions, and extensive problem sets.The material in Exploring Mathematics is extensively classroomtested, making this book an ideal, practical text for upperdivision mathematics courses for preservice elementary school teachers. The book not only shows ideas for implementing the eight standards of mathematical practices described in the common core standards into elementary teaching, but also allows the readers to actually experience those practices in their own learning process.Rajee Amarasinghe received his Ph.D. in Mathematics Education from Indiana University.
