GED 613 - Mathematics in a K-8 Classroom

This course helps current and future classroom teachers develop a deep and flexible understanding of elementary and middle school mathematics. Students will actively solve problems and visualize mathematical concepts. Lessons are designed to stretch students’ thinking to create a vision for the learning trajectory (scope and sequence) of K-8th grade mathematics. Through careful examination of and practice with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Standards, students will develop the necessary skills to teach math in a standard-based system.

Credits: 3 cr.
