This review is from: Good Questions for Math Teaching: Why Ask Them and What to Ask, Grades 5-8 (Paperback)
I have been a math teacher for over 20 years. I constantly purchase resource materials and continue to read and observe and learn to better my craft. Many states are moving to the Common Core Math Standards, so I've been researching books that look at math THINKING rather than just math processes. This book is absolutely terrific! I even came back and bought 3 more copies to use as door prizes at the next math workshop that I will be facilitating. No only does this book explain WHY we should use open-ended math activities but it offers MANY MANY specific examples that could be used in a wide range of ways: warm-up, THE activity, exploratory segment prior to a formal lesson, application after a formal lesson has been given, or intertwined within your total curriculum. I eagerly give this resource 5 stars. Thanks Nancy Canavan Anderson and Lainie Schuster for creating such a terrific resource. [This one was modeled after another book by the same title designed for lower grades by different authors, but I have not yet seen that one.]

This review is from: Good Questions for Math Teaching: Why Ask Them and What to Ask, Grades 5-8 (Paperback)
Awesome book for teachers who are looking for ways to teach students using problems. It helps teachers with the problems that are often difficult to come up with. This sure beats the the old textbook.

We are implementing new Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. Finding resources that have "rich task" type math questions can be a challenge. We hope this book will be an asset for many teachers. Great product. Great vendor. Would order again.
