Detailed plans for helping elementary students experience deep mathematical learning The mathematical tasks in this guide will challenge your youngest students to do deep problem-based learning. These ready-to-implement tasks connect concepts, skills, and practices and encourage students to reason, problem-solve, discuss, explore, justify, monitor their own thinking, and connect the mathematics they know to new situations. In other words, these tasks allow students to truly do mathematics! Written with a strengths-based lens, this guide includes:¿ Complete task-based lessons, referencing mathematics standards and practices, vocabulary, and materials ¿ Downloadable planning tools, student resource pages, and thoughtful questions, and formative assessment prompts¿ Guidance on preparing, launching, facilitating, and reflecting on each task¿ Notes on access and equity, focusing on students¿ strengths, productive struggle, and distance or alternative learning environments

NEW COVID RESOURCES ADDED:  A Parent¿s Toolkit to Strengths-Based Learning in Math is now available on the book¿s companion website to support families engaged in math learning at home. This toolkit provides a variety of home-based activities and games for families to engage in together.Your game plan for unlocking mathematics by focusing on students¿ strengths.What if instead of focusing on what students haven¿t mastered, we identify their mathematical strengths and build on students¿ points of power? Beth McCord Kobett and Karen S. Karp highlight five key teaching turnarounds are presented: identify teaching strengths, leverage students¿ strengths, design instruction from a strengths-based perspective, help students identify their points of power, and promote strengths in the school community. Each chapter provides opportunities to reflect and transfer practice while also sharing·         Downloadable resources, activities, and tools·         Examples of student work within Grades K¿6·         Real teachers¿ notes and reflections for discussion
