Math is a skill of great importance that relates to other areas our children will need to succeed in school and the work place. Many of us think that math is memorizing facts and formulas, afterall that is how we were taught. Yet, I have researched the most successful ways to teach math and although it does include some memorizing, the focus is should be on comprehension.
This is a presentation I made to show what the current research says are the best strategies to use when teaching math.

This presentation was made previously, the only thing that has changed is the statement about Common Core. Indiana adopted the new, Indiana College and Career Readiness standards, which are very similar to Common Core. I will be implementing these new Indiana standards this 2014 - 2015 school year. Thank you.
