Direct linkKinzer, Cathy Jeanne; Virag, Lisa; Morales, Sara – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2011
How can a teacher use the practice of reflection to create rich mathematical learning environments that are engaging to students? In such environments, one can hear and see a seamless integration of Problem Solving, Reasoning and Proof, Communication, making mathematical Connections, and Representation (the NCTM Process Standards) through Number…

McMillen, Sue; McMillen, Beth – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2010
Connecting stories to qualitative coordinate graphs has been suggested as an effective instructional strategy. Even students who are able to "create" bar graphs may struggle to correctly "interpret" them. Giving children opportunities to work with qualitative graphs can help them develop the skills to interpret, describe, and compare information…
