To increase opportunities for students to take more advanced math courses in high school, many school districts enroll grade 8 students in Algebra I, a gateway course for advanced math. But students who take Algebra I in grade 8 and skip other math courses, such as grade 8 general math, might miss opportunities to develop the foundational…

Crosscutting concepts such as "scale, proportion, and quantity" are recognised by U.S. science standards as a potential vehicle for students to integrate their scientific and mathematical knowledge; yet, U.S. students and adults trail their international peers in scale and measurement estimation. Culturally based knowledge of scale such…

Nivens, Ryan – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 2013
Some people recognize a palindrome when they see one, however fewer realize that a palindrome is a special case of a pattern and that these patterns are all around. Palindromes frequently occur in names, both of vehicles and people, and in music. The traditional mathematical curriculum has often left palindromes out of the common vernacular. Where…

Coffland, David A. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2012
The combined seventh-grade and eighth-grade class began each day with a mathematical reasoning question as a warm-up activity. One day's question was: Is the product of two odd numbers always an odd number? The students took sides on the issue, and the exercise ended in frustration. Reflecting on the frustration caused by this warm-up activity,…

Ketterlin-Geller, Leanne R.; Chard, David J. – Australian Journal of Learning Difficulties, 2011
Developing proficiency in algebra is the focus of instruction in high school mathematics courses and is a minimum expectation for high school completion for all students including those with learning difficulties. However, the foundation for success is laid in grades 4-8 (aged 9-14). In this paper, we assert that students' development of algebraic…
