Product Information

Dr. Small is probably best known for her books Good Questions: Great Ways to Differentiate Mathematics Instruction and More Good Questions: Great Ways to Differentiate Secondary Mathematics Instruction (with Amy Lin). Eyes on Math: A Visual Approach to Teaching Math Concepts was published in 2013, as was Uncomplicating Fractions to Meet Common Core Standards in Math, K–7. In 2014, she authored Uncomplicating Algebra to Meet Common Core Standards in Math, K–8. She is also author of the first and second editions of a text for university pre-service teachers and practicing teachers, Making Math Meaningful to Canadian Students: K–8, as well as the professional resources Big Ideas from Dr. Small: Grades 4–8; Big Ideas from Dr. Small: Grades K–3; and Leaps and Bounds toward Math Understanding: Grades 3–4, Grades 5–6, and Grades 7–8, all published by Nelson Education Ltd.

Examples of Maths Trails: A student-generated math trail, The Easter Trail . It was created by a class of 7-year-old children, with some teacher support, for a parent/child activity day. VELS 3.0 – 3.5 MATHEMATICS: NUMBER TEACHER TEST INFORMATION • This test contains 30 questions and can be administered to individuals, small groups or to a whole class of students. • Practice questions are included at the start of the test to help students become familiar with the different types of responses that are required in the test. Teachers should work through the practice

Score +3 +2 = +5 At this point a student would try to get a total score on the next hand to be less than 100, preferably at 95 so that the score for the hand would be –5 Each of 1, 3, 5 and 7 is odd, and 13 is odd. But two odd numbers add to an even number, so the total is But two odd numbers add to an even number, so the total is always even.

proving that (x n) is a contractive sequence. It follows that (x n) is convergent; set x ∗ = lim n→∞ x n. Letting n → ∞ in x n 1 = f(x n), we obtain xShe has been an author on many mathematics text series at both the elementary and the secondary levels. She has served on the author team for the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Navigation series (pre-K–2), as the NCTM representative on the Mathcounts question writing committee for middle school mathematics competitions throughout the United States, and as a member of the editorial panel for the NCTM 2011 yearbook on motivation and disposition. The book will be useful to a broad range of teachers who will find new ways to clarify concepts that students find difficult. It can be used as a resource to prepare teachers for the higher mathematical thinking requirements of the CCSS Mathematical Practices. It will also be an invaluable resource for teachers working with students with low reading ability, including English language learners and special education students. A valuable book for mathematics teachers, teacher educators, and faculty involved in differentiated instruction.”

The preface begins the conversation about how to use the book for differentiated instruction and in conjunction with other resources. The book opens by providing the theory and research behind using visual representations for understanding math concepts, finding the most important focal points within the math we are teaching, and providing learning experiences that connect across strands using big ideas and essential understandings. Recognizing that communication in math goes a long way to improving understandings, Small argues that connecting math to oral, visual, and written communication is a key part of supporting student learning. Teachers are encouraged to include rich tasks and open-ended questions in their lessons.
