Now, Pam Harris continues her work by offering lessons and activities that promote her strategies for teaching as much mathematics as possible with as little memorization as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTwo types of activities for building numeracy are included in this workbook: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e Student Workouts include reproducible worksheets that students can work on independently or in pairs, followed by robust class discussion to promote understanding of the ideas.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  Teacher Directed Activities are whole-class mini-lessons designed to help students construct numerical relationships as they work with the teacher. \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile the student workouts provide starting points for students to build important numerical relationships and choose effective strategies, the teacher directed activities provide opportunities for discussing, comparing, modeling, verbalizing strategies, finding and describing patterns, and making generalizations. Together they help develop the mathematical habits of mind that students need for higher math.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePamela Weber Harris, a former secondary mathematics teacher, is a K-12 mathematics education consultant, a T^3 (Teachers Teaching with Technology) National Instructor, and a nationally known speaker.
