Project-Based Learning in the Math Classroom

by Telannia Norfar, Telannia Norfar

Project-Based Learning in the Math Classroom explains how to keep inquiry at the heart of mathematics teaching and helps teachers build students' abilities to be true mathematicians. This book outlines basic teaching strategies, such as questioning and exploration of concepts. It also provides advanced strategies for teachers who are already implementing inquiry-based methods. Project-Based Learning in the Math Classroom includes practical advice about strategies the authors have used in their own classrooms, and each chapter features strategies that can be implemented immediately. Teaching in a project-based environment means using great teaching practices. The authors impart strategies that assist teachers in planning standards-based lessons, encouraging wonder and curiosity, providing a safe environment where failure occurs, and giving students opportunities for revision and reflection.

I won a copy of this book.

This is a great teacher tool. For grades 6-10. Focuses on project-based learning, instead of just reading out of a book and repeating answers back. Get students involved in math class by having them group up and work together on the subject. Worksheets and teaching guides are included.
