Lecture: 4 Lab: 0 Practica: 0 Total Credits: 4
This course introduces candidates to K-2 math standards, research-based instructional strategies with emphasis on comprehension strategies, and explicit instruction as components of building a community of independent learners. Candidates use a variety of math resources to plan and present K-2 math lessons, practice differentiating instruction and provide academic feedback, and participate in conferences to discuss their effectiveness. Candidates participate in classroom observations that show the integration of knowledge and skills across grades. Candidates must also demonstrate and apply understandings of major mathematical concepts, algorithms, procedures, application, and practices in varied contexts and connections within and among mathematical domains for grades K-2. Candidates participate in five hours of classroom observations during this course.
