Aligned with both NCATE standards for field experience and clinical practice and NCTM Professional Standards for Teaching Mathematics (in Part I) and NCTM content standards, this field experience guide provides a rich collection of diverse experiences and reproducible resources that every elementary teacher candidate needs for a successful mathematics field experience. Part I contains a menu of all kinds of possible field tasks along with models for everything from an Observation worksheet using NCTM Professional Teaching Standards to a Literature and Math Lesson template to a criteria list for evaluating mathematics software, to name a few. Part II contains 24 additional Expanded Lessons written by John Van de Walle for each of the NCTM content strands and each grade span (K-2, 3-5, 6-8). This part also includes reproducible handouts for 10 mathematical tasks, and 11 balanced assessment tasks complete with worksheets, rubrics, and sample solutions. Finally, Part III includes all the blackline masters referenced in the Expanded Lessons in the textbook and this field experience guide and instructions for creating these into card stock materials or transparencies.

From the Back Cover:

The Field Experience Guide is for field experiences, practicums, and/or student teaching experiences at the elementary and middle school levels. This guide contains three parts: Part I, Menu of Field Experiences, provides tasks for preservice teachers to use in the classroom; Part II, Resources for Teaching, provides three types of activities: Expanded Lessons, Mathematics Activities, and Balanced Assessment Tasks; Part III, Blackline Masters, features reproducibles, along with suggestions for the use and construction of many of these materials.

Every chapter in Part I includes field-based tasks that align to the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) standards; National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards; and the textbook, Elementary and Middle School Mathematics: Teaching Developmentally, 8/e by John A. Van de Walle, Karen S. Karp, and Jennifer M. Bay-Williams. New field experiences have also been added to include a focus on Common Core State Standards content. Revised rubrics in each chapter help you and your professor assess your progress on the topic of that particular chapter.

Part II features updated Expanded Lessons. Each lesson now opens with a Grade Level Guide based on Common Core State Standards, as well as NCTM Curriculum Focal Points. Strategies for English language learners (ELLs) and Students with Disabilities have also been added to each lesson. In addition to these 24 effective lessons, Part II has a collection of Mathematics Activities that can be developed into engaging lessons. This edition includes three new problem-based tasks for a more comprehensive coverage of content. Finally, three balanced assessment tasks are provided, which can be used as lessons or assessment of student learning. The lessons and activities in Part II can be used to complete the field experiences in Part I.

Part III contains reproducible Blackline Masters referenced in Elementary and Middle School Mathematics: Teaching Developmentally, 8/e and Expanded Lessons in Part II.

Enjoy this collection of experiences as they support you in your journey toward effective mathematics teaching.
