Introducing a unique functional language awareness approach developed through decades of research and field work, this book helps teachers examine how they use language in the math classroom and make small changes to their words and practices to support student learning. Math teachers will see the functional language awareness approach in action across different classroom contexts, and they’ll get a practical collection of ideas, activities, and tools for making the most of language in the math classroom. An innovative approach that complements popular math models used with English learners, this guidebook will help educators use language consistently and effectively to meet the learning needs of all
MATH TEACHERS WILL:
- record, analyze, and reflect on their own use of language in the classroom
- increase understanding of student strengths and needs by developing learner profiles
- establish language-rich interactive routines that engage all learners
- plan powerful math lessons with an explicit focus on how language can support learning
- build student competence in key skills related to math, including explaining, reasoning, and problem-solving
- teach students precise language for communicating their math knowledge
- use a think-aloud technique to reflect on and improve elements of their planning and teaching
SPECIAL FEATURES: Leverage language effectively in the math classroom through sample transcripts of teacher-student discourse, Try It Yourself boxes, On Your Own activities, and reflective practice. Online materials include a lesson plan template, sample lesson plan, transcription guide, and other forms to support effective teaching.
