Description
Helping students communicate their mathematical thinking has become a successful and joyful instructional practice in many classrooms. Why Write in Math Class? offers practical advice on how to integrate writing into the math class, focusing on five types of writing that require high-cognitive demand. The authors provide numerous examples of writing prompts and tasks, as well as extensive stories and samples of student work from K-5 classrooms, giving a clear vision of how writing in math class can successfully unfold. By building on existing knowledge about teaching writing within literacy instruction and developing classroom communities that support math talk, this book helps teachers make informed instructional decisions and inform their understanding of each student's thinking.
