Making Math Meaningful

Written for a Canadian audience, Making Math Meaningful to Canadian Students, K-8, Second Edition, will start teachers on their way to a successful career in teaching mathematics by providing them with insight into how to make mathematics make sense to students and capture their interest. Author Marian Small combines her wealth of research and practical experience to make this a thorough, yet very accessible text for students. This text is uniquely Canadian, with samples from Canadian student texts and attention to Canadian curricula. Making Math Meaningful will serve as an invaluable reference for teachers who often have not had specialist training in mathematics, yet are expected to teach sophisticated curriculum to a diverse student population.
