This book focuses on the specialized pedagogical content knowledge that you need to teach fractions effectively in grades 3–5. The authors demonstrate how to use this multifaceted knowledge to address the big ideas and essential understandings that students must develop for success with fractions—not only in their current work, but also in higher-level mathematics and a myriad of real-world contexts.

This book invites K–8 teachers to reflect on their own and their students’ multiple identities. Rich possibilities for learning result when teachers draw on these identities to offer high-quality, equity-based teaching to all students. Reflecting on identity and re-envisioning learning and teaching through this lens especially benefits students who have been marginalized by race, class, ethnicity, or gender. More]]> 14119 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.nctm.org/catalog/product.aspx?id=14551 The 75th Anniversary Yearbook: Celebrating a Valued Tradition of Defining Mathematics Education  More]]> 14551 Mon, 08 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT http://www.nctm.org/catalog/product.aspx?id=13800 This book focuses on the essential knowledge for mathematics teachers about statistics.
