Teaching Mathematics Visually and Actively
- Tandi Clausen-May - Educational researcher
Accompanying this second edition is a companion website that includes a range of resources for teaching each topic including:
- Dynamic PowerPoint animations which can be used to help learners to develop their understanding of key mathematical concepts
- Posters of each concept
And in addition to all this, each chapter suggests even further links to other useful resources for every topic to enhance your teaching.
With clear explanations and strong visual layout, this is an ideal resource for teachers, SENCOs (Special Educational Needs Co-ordinators) and teaching assistants who want to motivate their learners with different and exciting ways of teaching and learning maths.
Good for students wanting to specialise
A very good resource for students on the initial teacher programmes.
The author takes what may be unfamiliar and daunting concepts and skills in maths teaching of mathematics and makes them understandable and do-able. Helps to develop confidence.
An interesting an easy to understand manual that has enabled tutors to adopt different methods of teach mathematics.
Some really good strategies in particular for kinesthetic learners, useful for a wide range of educational and other staff working in inclusive primary school education
I have found this book most useful when supporting Primary BEd and PGCE students who are out on teaching placement and teaching mathematics. I have also recommended it to many teaching friends as there are lots of useful ideas and a very handy CD to support the teaching of some of the more tricky mathematics concepts.
Lots of useful, practical advice which could prove invaluable to trainees, NQTs and experienced teachers. The included DVD is a bonus for downloading resources and powerpoints
A useful reference with some practical application for active and visual mathematics.
full of excellent models for developing mathematical understanding
An interesting an easy to understand text that enables practitioners in settings or, still in training to adopt different methods of teaching mathematics.
This was brimful of activities and approaches in supprting and teaching Maths. The additional information and resources on the CD Rom were an unexpected bonus.
