Behavioral objectives are specified for 82 topics in mathematics to be covered in grades 7 through 9. A general objective is given for each, followed by specific behavioral objectives with suggested activities. Topics include number properties and operations, geometry, number theory, algebra, set theory, ratio, proportion and percent, the metric…

Behavioral objectives for grades 10 through 12 are specified for plane geometry, algebra, general mathematics, computer mathematics, slide rule mathematics, basic college mathematics, trigonometry, analytic geometry, calculus and probability. Most sections present material in terms of portions of a school year. At least one major objective is…

This volume presents a collection of activities and games for use in elementary school mathematics laboratories. The activities and games included were submitted by classroom teachers and were selected for their use of manipulative materials or their reliance on student interactions. Several of the activities included have been described in "The…

Piaget's organismic-developmental theory of intelligence was investigated in this study to determine the effectiveness of training middle class 3 and 4 year olds on two logico-mathematical structures: classification and seriation. Twenty-four children were divided into two main age groups (mean ages: 3 years 8 months; 4 years 5 months). Within…

The contemporary mathematics program set forth in this publication developed as a result of experimentation and evaluation in classroom situations. This is Part 2 of "Mathematics: 8th Year." Part 1, a separate bulletin, was published during the school year 1967-68. The materials in this bulletin are intended to serve as guidelines for…

The Minnesota School Mathematics and Science Teaching (MINNEMAST) Project is characterized by its emphasis on the coordination of mathematics and science in the elementary school curriculum. Units are planned to provide children with activities in which they learn various concepts from both subject areas. Each subject is used to support and…

An explicit and complete list of the Minimal Performance Objectives for Mathematics Education in Michigan public schools is contained in this document. The objectives are organized under the five major topics of Arithmetic, Measurement, Geometry, Algebra, and Probability and Statistics. Examples and comments are included. A summary of the…

This teacher guide is part of the materials prepared for an individualized program for ninth-grade algebra and basic mathematics students. Materials written for the program are to be used with audiovisual lessons recorded on tape cassettes. For an evaluation of the program, see ED 086 545. In this guide, the teacher is provided with objectives for…

The relationship between 18 preparatory teachers' verbal behavior and their students' attainment of number concepts in investigated. The study is based on research of teacher observational systems used to identify "low inference" teacher-variables; this literature is reviewed in this report. The six variables measured by analyzing ten…

The purpose of this project was to determine if the method of subtraction of integers taught to seventh grade students affected their mathematics achievement or retention. Computation, concept, and problem-solving sections of the California Achievement Test were given as pretests and posttests. An investigator-constructed test of the addition and…

Twenty-four nursery school children ranging from 3.11 years to 5.11 years were tested in counting objects that varied in similarity and contiguity. Objects were presented in three arrangements: arrangements composed of subgroups of contiguous identical objects; arrangements without subgroups; and arrangements composed of subgroups of discontiguous…
