DOWNLOAD EBOOKTraditionally, small-group math instruction has been used as a format for reaching children who struggle to understand. Math coach Kassia Omohundro Wedekind uses small-group instruction as the centerpiece of her math workshop approach, engaging all students in rigorous "math exchanges." The key characteristics of these mathematical conversations are that they are: 1) short, focused sessions that bring all mathematical minds together, 2) responsive to the needs of the specific group of mathematicians, and 3) designed for meaningful, guided reflection. As in reading and writing workshop, students in math workshop become self-directed and independent while participating in a classroom community of learners. Through the math exchanges, students focus on number sense and the big ideas of mathematics. Teachers guide the conversations with small groups of students, mediating talk and thinking as students share problem-solving strategies, discuss how math works, and move toward more effective and efficient approaches and greater mathematical understanding. Although grounded in theory and research, Math Exchanges: Guiding Young Mathematicians in Small Group Meetings is written for practicing teachers and answers such questions as the following: How can I use a math workshop approach and follow a certain textbook or set of standards? How should I form small groups? How often should I meet with small groups? What should I focus on in small groups? How can I tell if my groups are making progress? What do small-group math exchanges look like, sound like, and feel like?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWelcome! Thanks for joining me on this wild ride through middle school. As a father of two children I was untested in the changes that occur in the middle school years. I knew that if I was untested and felt the feelings of uncertainty and doubt about what my kids were about to experience then I was sure that my kids had twice as much doubt about what was going to take place on those first few days of school. This book is not my opinion, but is based on a statistical analysis including many charts on twenty-five factors that have come from EXPERTS (teachers, students and parents) that have gone down this road before in getting prepared for those first days of middle school. My hope is that in these pages you will find several of those factors that can give you comfort and that by reading each factor you will form your own opinion which can help you on your own quest to GET PREPARED FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL.
