“13 Rules That Expire” by Karen S. Karp, Sarah B. Bush, and Barbara J. Dougherty, is a thought-provoking read because, for one thing, students do not actually know that these thirteen rules perish until someone notifies us. When I first read this article, it came to me as a bit of a shock. This is an article that all math teachers should read before teaching in a classroom. This article is about the rules that teachers use to teach math to younger students and how those rules will expire before they

followed along with a given example of subtraction using their white boards. Allowing them to follow along and find the difference using a number line with me, helped them by integrating a hands on learning approach. • What part of the lesson would you improve (and why)? Reflect using learner-centered competencies. Describe unanticipated events and how you responded to them. During the beginning of my lesson I gave a real-world example when creating a subtraction

“Bulletproof” by David Guetta depicts my steadfast dedication and strong character. The lyrics “You shoot me down, but I won’t fall, I am titanium” remind me that I can achieve my ambitions through the toughest times, no matter how many obstacles I must cross. When I was 11 years old, I lost my father to an accident. My family was heartbroken. I watched my mother endure many hardships for her children and become one of the strongest people I know. She inspired me to persevere through my grief and

because we use it every day. Any job we have has some type of math, most of the time it 's going to be lower level math, for me I worked this semester at a Burger King, so I needed to know adding multiplication, and subtraction on the fly. Math 103 made me understand adding, subtraction, and multiplication on the fly and it made me a better worker at my job. Conclusion It wasn 't easy for me in the beginning, but I pushed through and learned to appreciate math for what it is. Math 103 taught me

Everbody does have the abilty to affect others, and so do I. In this summer, I served as a teacher in a summer camp, teaching primary school students. Throughout my service learning experience, I gained a lot of insights and reflections. I served, and at the same time I learnt. I have comparatively significant changes in two aspects, including my passion in helping the underprivileged children and adolescents, as well as my problem-solving and decision-making capacities. Therfore, I would like to

Single-parenthood can be defined as when one out of two people who is responsible for the nurturing and child rearing is not available, and the work meant for two people, is now been Carried out by only one person. Collins online Dictionary, define single-parenting as a mother or father who looks after children on their own, without the other partner. Single-parenting can be defined as a situation in which one of the two individuals involved in the conception of the child is being responsible for

- Understand the effects of adding and subtracting whole numbers. - Understand various meanings of addition and subtraction of whole numbers and the relationship between the two operations. - Develop and use strategies for whole-number computations, with a focus on addition and subtraction. - Develop fluency with basic number combinations for addition and subtraction. Essential Question(s): - Numbers can be added in any way and we will still come up with the same answer - Numbers cannot be subtracted

Teacher will say, “We are going to identify the unknown number in an addition or subtraction equation.” Teacher will write a balance equation on the white board, “7 + 6 = 10 + c” and draws small circle on each side. To find the unknown number we have to follow these steps: Step #1: Add or subtract and write the answer of each side in the circle below, Step #2: Find the missing number and write it in the square, Step #3: Make sure both sides of your equation match one another.” Teacher will say, “Let

two addition and two subtraction facts. Fact families "allow children to think about part-whole relationships while also helping them realize that subtraction and addition are opposites of one another" (Cobb, 1987; Sun & Zhang, 2001; Zhou & Peverly, 2005, as cited in Kurz, Yanik and Garcia, 2009, p. 353). In its simplest form it involves rearranging parts of the equation using the set three numbers hence the chosen objective to "represent and solve simple addition and subtraction problems using a range

Unit Goals: Priority: 2.NBT.B.8- Add or subtract within 1000, and justify solution 2.NBT.B.6- Demonstrate fluency with addition and subtraction within 100 Supporting: 2.NBT.B.9- Use the relationship between addition and subtraction to solve problems Simpler Performance: • Able to solve three digit problems using manipulatives and work mats. Students will most likely need extra modeling and questioning to get them to this performance. They may be able to explain what steps they are taking with

students will be able to use visual models to add and subtract two fractions with the same units. The standard that is addressed in this lesson is 4.NF.3a “Understand a fraction a/b with a > 1 as a sum of fractions 1/b and understand addition and subtraction of joining and separating parts referring to the same whole.” This lesson is the first time students in the fourth grade are introduced to adding and subtracting fractions. In lesson 2, the learning objective is that students will be able to use

The children’s book Ten Apples Up on Top, written by Dr. Seuss, tells of three animals: a lion, a dog, and a tiger, who compete against each other to find out who can balance the most apples on top of their heads while performing various activities. After being chased by several other animals and the apples falling from their heads, the story ends with all the animals together trying to balance the apples once again. Counting to ten math concept can be taught to students by using the book. You

In “13 Rules that Expire” by Karp, Bush, and Dougherty (2014), they talk about thirteen math “rules” that a lot of students live by. But, in reality these rules will “expire” or not work anymore. For example, a rule will work for the time being, when students are learning the concept, but in the future, when the student comes across a more advanced skill of the concept, this “rule” will not apply anymore. In the article is states that mathematics should use clear definitions and precise discussions

labeling the parts, finding equivalent fractions and simplifying the fractions. Additionally, Student C had difficulty with all the processes that weren’t adding fractions with common denominators. This includes finding common denominators, subtraction, multiplication and

unsure she will often use her fingers as a tool to support her. She has also explored double-digit addition and subtraction this year. Rachel is able to solve double-digit addition with or without regrouping independently. She also is comfortable solving subtraction without regrouping. Rachel sometimes like to use a hundreds chart as an aid. She continues to work the concept of subtraction with regrouping but is able to tell you the process. For math, Rachel benefits from having extra time or a scribe

Mathematical testing provides teachers the opportunity to identify students’ knowledge, methods and misconceptions. The National Assessment Program Literacy and Numeracy [NAPLAN] (Australian Curriculum and Assessment Reporting Authority [ACARA], 2011) presents questions to solve by utilising content descriptors from the Australian Curriculum (ACARA, n.d.-a). Mathematic computations have many methods of solution which would influence answers. A misconception that students have when counting money

objects to represent the number, to help students count. Using the playing cards students will easily create addition and subtraction problems then solve. E. Explain how your lesson plan incorporates each of the following components: 1. conceptual understanding - The lesson incorporates manipulatives, students will gain a conceptual understanding of addition and subtraction because they can use Play-Doh to physically add or take away muffins to solve the problem and understand

Swiss psychologist and developmental theorist Jean Piaget’s constructivist cognitive theory continues to have substantial impact on our understanding of child development. Piaget interpreted child development as an active process, in which children actively interact with and discover phenomenons of the external environment (Shaffer, David R. Social and Personality Development. Wadsworth/Cengage Learning, 2009, Print, 52). As an active theory, children were labeled as ‘constructivists’ whom construct

differences in the money values and appearances. It is important to include visuals when teaching money as it helps students make connections between math terms or money terms with a visual representation. Money is complex as it involves addition and subtraction methods, which cannot be taught in isolation from literacy, such as the language that is used to explain coins and strategies. Therefore, having both our resources together will scaffold the teaching and learning process for educators and ELL students
