"Did you know that every time you pick up the controller to your PlayStation or Xbox, you are entering a game world steeped in mathematics? Power-Up reveals the hidden mathematics in many of today's most popular video games and explains why mathematical learning doesn't just happen in the classroom or from books--you're doing it without even realizing it when you play games on your cell phone. In this lively and entertaining book, Matthew Lane discusses how gamers are engaging with the traveling salesman problem when they play Assassin's Creed, why it is mathematically impossible for Mario to jump through the Mushroom Kingdom in Super Mario Bros., and how The Sims teaches us the mathematical costs of maintaining relationships. He looks at mathematical pursuit problems in classic games like Missile Command and Ms. Pac-Man, and how each time you play Tetris, you're grappling with one of the most famous unsolved problems in all of mathematics and computer science. Along the way, Lane discusses why Family Feud and Pictionary make for ho-hum video games, how realism in video games (or the lack of it) influences learning, what video games can teach us about the mathematics of voting, the mathematics of designing video games, and much more. Power-Up shows how the world of video games is an unexpectedly rich medium for learning about the beautiful mathematical ideas that touch all aspects of our lives--including our virtual ones."--Dust jacket.

Essential habits to build mathematical confidence and competence for all students! It has been said that teachers make approximately 1,500 decisions a day. Given the volume of work, it is no wonder that these decisions are frequently made reflex-like and in the moment. By intentionally nurturing effective habits in students, as well as in teachers, we can make these decisions more deliberately and in so doing foster a positive relationship with mathematics that will set students on an unstoppable trajectory of math learning. Eight Habits of Highly Effective Math Students (and the Teachers Who Teach Them) focuses on developing eight essential habits that support mathematical competence and confidence in students. This resource is designed as a personalized, practice-based professional learning experience, leading you through a wealth of professional learning and application activities to support you in growing a specific math habit in your classroom to strengthen your students’ math learning and build your own efficacy. The book offers the chance to "choose your own adventure" through three teacher inquiry options focused on a specific math habit: Give it a Go! (An Informal Exploration of a Teaching Action and Its Impact on Student Learning) Classroom Inquiry (A Classroom-Based Teacher Inquiry Project) Focus on Equity (A Teacher Inquiry to Notice and Disrupt Patterns of Inequity) This book provides an actionable framework for improving math teaching and learning by Emphasizing a commitment to equity, because all students are capable of learning high-level mathematics when provided with access to high-quality instruction Helping teachers develop mindsets and habits to consciously reflect on their instructional practice to continually strengthen teaching effectiveness and student learning outcomes Curating short readings and practice-based professional learning activities that can be engaged in individually or collaboratively Highlighting the importance of celebrating growth and the role of teachers in nurturing good habits in their students Offering a guide to coaching the habit through a process called Notice, Nurture, Name, and Nudge Eight Habits of Highly Effective Math Students (and the Teachers Who Teach Them) is grounded in the unwavering belief that all students are math-capable and all teachers can effectively teach mathematics. The book can be used individually by elementary school teachers and education leaders at school and district levels or in collaborative professional learning settings. It is an excellent companion to Holly Burwell and Sue Chapman’s book Power-Up Your Math Community (Corwin, 2024).

Because when you see the math, they can see it too. The role of today’s classroom teacher has evolved from being a disseminator of information to a facilitator of learning. As an elementary teacher, you can guide student thinking to deeper levels of understanding by making connections between and among physical, visual, symbolic, verbal and contextual representations. Seeing the Math You Teach, Grades K-6 is intended to help you help your students. It is an accessible guide for elementary teachers that focuses on making mathematics meaningful through multiple strategies and representations to help foster a love for mathematics in their students. The authors have written this book based on the deep belief that everyone can be good at math. It illustrates the most commonly seen and used visual models of each of the elementary mathematical content areas the way children think about them. Rather than a book full of prescribed problem solving strategies, this book will help you and your students literally "see" the structure of mathematical concepts–how and why they work–and make connections among various representations and topics. This is not the kind of book to be read cover-to-cover. It is organized in a flexible format to inform the math teaching and learning going on in a classroom at a given moment. Enhancing teachers’ own clarity and understanding in mathematics, or in other words, "to see the math they teach," this book: Provides 16 color-coded chapters–and a Topic Index–that can be used to quickly locate specific topics such as "place value", "unit fractions" or "equivalent ratios" Incorporates videos of how to use manipulatives to connect physical models to other visual representations Can be used as a planning tool with your PLC, a desk-reference, a teaching tool, and a family support tool. This guide equips you to help your students derive meaning, sense, and joy out of their mathematics learning. It helps them see math as more than "just numbers"--illustrating the ways they think and focusing on their understanding of how and why math works.

"Revitalize the spirit of your school community and strengthen your common vision and purpose! Many of today's schools suffer from stress fractures as they struggle with challenges of achievement gaps, class sizes, differentiating instruction for diverse students, and responding to ever greater demands for accountability. Longtime facilitator R. Bruce Williams gets to the heart of the matter, emphasizing that change is not just external but also comes from within through revitalized individuals and strong culture. Williams provides administrators with essential tools to nurture the spirits of hard-working professionals and raise morale in their school communities. Each chapter ends with step-by-step activities that build on featured concepts and speed the transition from theory to practice, from struggle to success. The book focuses on seven important aspects of underlying structure that can leverage new patterns of confidence and achievement. Participative processes such as mentoring Visible achievements Common understandings Guided reflections Inspiring success stories Community-building rituals Powerful symbols In powerful, well-formed cultures, common spirit is strong. This book provides everything educators need to work together to transform their learning community into a culture of vitality, energy, vision, and purpose."--pub. desc.
