It seems like everyone always has an opinion about math and how math should be taught, especially to elementary students. With teachers learning and implementing an influx of new strategies, methods, and assessment plans, parents are often feeling left out of discussions about these techniques and as a result rely on how they were taught as a visual model for how children should be taught math today. Research shows us, however, that rote memorization and solely abstract representations are not effective ways to develop mathematical understanding or build positive math identities. So, how do we get this message across to parents? How do we get more parents involved in math discussions and deepen their understandings about the importance of math tools, practices, and talking about math?
Today’s episode explores not only the why, but the how of engaging parents in Kids Math Talk.
Host Desiree Harrison interviews authors of the text, Partnering with Parents in Elementary School Math: A Guide for Teachers and Leaders, Dr. Hilary Kreisberg and Matthew Beyranevand.
