ECED 311 - Teaching Mathematics Grades PreK-2 with Pre-Practicum I |
An exploration of the PreK-2 mathematics curriculum, preparing early childhood teacher candidates to teach mathematics to diverse student populations. Teaching practices and methods modeled are consistent with the Massachusetts Professional Standards for Teaching and the Standards for Mathematical Practice. PreK-2 teacher candidates design and implement lessons according to research on how young children learn mathematics and investigate the major mathematical concepts and content found in the most recent edition of the Massachusetts Mathematics Curriculum Framework for students in grades PreK-2. Candidates analyze classroom cases and videos to identify the mathematical concepts students struggle with in grades PreK-2 and develop their ability to communicate mathematical ideas more clearly and effectively to all students.
