Elementary and Middle School Mathematics
Teaching Developmentally
By John Van de Walle, Karen Karp, Jennifer Bay-Williams, & Lynn McGarvey
An “inquiry-based” approach to mathematics that recognizes research and teaching currently taking place in Canadian classrooms. Guides both new and experienced teachers through a basic understanding of mathematics and problem solving, and encourages them to think about their own perceptions and misconceptions about mathematics.
What to Look For
Understanding and Developing Student Thinking in Early Numeracy
By Alex Lawson
- Understand and develop early numeracy
- Identify what a student's thinking reveals about his or her understanding and implement next steps to advance problem-solving strategies
- Includes videos that showcase student development and more
Early Research
Early in the development process, we reviewed key mathematics research with educators like you. This crucial step helped build a deep understanding of math learning and the needs of teachers into the Mathology program. Want to discover exactly what we learned?
Pearson's Mathematics Learning Progression
Finding math resources you can trust can be difficult and time-consuming. Mathology’s classroom resources are based on a learning progression backed by insights from teacher interviews, focus groups, and classroom observations–along with the best of academic research and pedagogical approaches. So you can focus on teaching, not searching for resources.
Pearson Canada’s Learning Progression shows you how students’ mathematical learning and knowledge grows over time. This Mathematics-based document reflects much of the recent investigation into mathematical learning while accommodating curricula through its focus on big ideas in mathematics.
