Mindset Mathematics: Visualizing and Investigating Big Ideas, Grade 3

More about the book

The Mindset mathematics series offers a unique, research-based visual approach to exploring the big ideas in mathematics, which is essential to future mathematics success. This hands-on resource is for any teacher who wants to engage their third grade students in reasoning and persisting through problems, and provides activities that will engage students' interest and show them the many ways that mathematics is important in their lives. During their work with tens of thousands of teachers, authors Jo Boaler, Jen Munson, and Cathy Williams heard the same message: teachers want to incorporate more brain science into their mathematics instruction, but they need guidance in the techniques that work best to promote learning of mathematics concepts. In this volume, the authors show what the big ideas are at this grade level, why they are important to know, and how students can best learn those big ideas. -- Back cover
