Math

A five-stage instructional model—engage, explore, explain, elaborate, and evaluate—can guide students to a deeper understanding of math.

An instructional coach and math teacher who developed a powerful model for student collaboration have tweaked it for the pandemic.

In this excerpt from ‘The Math Teacher’s Toolbox,’ the authors, veteran high school math teachers, share research on motivation.

The popular tool helps teachers assess students’ thought processes and provides opportunities for students to work together to solve problems.

Whether you teach online or in person this fall, these digital math tools may come in handy for grades pre-K through 12.

Take advantage of online resources and simple experiments students can do at home to keep them learning in all teaching scenarios.

When students’ eyes are opened to the broad community of mathematicians, they reject stereotypes and gain confidence in their own abilities.

Does doodling boost learning? Do attendance awards work? Do boys and girls process math the same way? Here’s a look at the big questions that researchers tackled this year.

Teachers who ask students questions while demonstrating how to solve problems increase engagement and facilitate a deeper understanding.

Elementary school teachers use number talks to guide students to engage deeply with concepts, and they can work online, with a little creativity.

Keep your high school math students engaged with these techniques.

An English teacher co-teaching trigonometry asked students to explain an equation to a child and to turn discrete problems into a story.
