This book, the eleventh in the
Putting Essential Understanding into Practice Series, focuses on misconceptions about variables, expressions, equations,
and functions that students often bring to grades 6–8. The authors present tasks given to middle-grades students
and examine sample responses to them to show how teachers can bring
misconceptions to the surface, where they and their students can inspect them,
recognize errors and limitations, and replace faulty thinking with robust
ideas.

The Measuring Space in One, Two, and Three Dimensions Casebook was developed as the key resource for participants’ Developing Mathematical Ideas seminar experience. The thirty cases, written by teachers describing real situations and actual student thinking in their classrooms, provide the basis of each session’s investigation of specific mathematical concepts and teaching strategies. Reading and discussing the cases under the guidance of the facilitator actively engages seminar participants in their own learning enterprise.
