Livers, Stefanie D.; Harbour, Kristin E.; Fowler, Lindsey – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2019
In this article, Lindsey Fowler describes how an animal rhyme--that she shared with her fifth-grade students with the intention of assisting them with the concept of metric conversions--made fostering the Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMP) more difficult. The addition of animals, which added an extraneous element that students mistakenly…

Markworth, Kimberly A. – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2016
A "repeating pattern" is a cyclical repetition of an identifiable core. Children in the primary grades usually begin pattern work with fairly simple patterns, such as AB, ABC, or ABB patterns. The unique letters represent unique elements, whereas the sequence of letters represents the core that is repeated. Based on color, shape,…

Felton, Mathew D.; Page, Melissa – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2014
Findings from an extensive four-year program with a single cohort of elementary and early middle school mathematics instructors highlight several important themes that can inform other efforts in developing teacher leaders. The authors describe the Arizona Master Teachers of Mathematics (AZ-MTM) program as an example that supports the development…

D'Ambrosio, Beatriz S.; Kastberg, Signe E. – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2012
Asked to complete a decimal-ordering task, several preservice teachers were unable to arrange the values from smallest to largest. Even more surprising to the authors were the number who could solve this task correctly but could not justify their solution by representing each decimal in an area model using a decimal grid. Their preservice teachers…
