Strategies in Teaching Mathematics -Principles of Teaching 2 (KMB)Kris Thel
Solving problems is a practical art, like swimming, or skiing, or playing the piano: you can learn it only by imitation and practice. . . . if you wish to learn swimming you have to go in the water, and if you wish to become a problem solver you have to solve problems.

Reconstructionism and behaviorism are educational philosophies. Reconstructionism emphasizes addressing social problems and creating a better society through education. Key philosophers include Theodore Brameld, George Counts, and Paulo Freire who saw education as preparing people for social reform. Behaviorism is a theory of learning based on conditioning through interactions with the environment. Key behaviorist philosophers include John Watson, B.F. Skinner, and Ivan Pavlov who studied how behaviors are acquired and changed based on external stimuli. Both approaches influence curriculum and classroom practices, but reconstructionism focuses on social issues while behaviorism focuses on manipulating the environment to shape behaviors.

The teachers varied in their iPad knowledge from basic use to being able to teach others. Few had used Edmodo or Google accounts. Favorite classroom apps included Class Dojo, word games, and ebooks. Teachers asked about time management, engaging iPad lessons, and using iPads with smartboards. The presenter then demonstrated reading, math, science, and other educational apps. Teachers shared systems for small group and individual iPad use including rotations and rewards. Engaging apps mentioned were for spelling, math, sight words, and creative tools like iMovie.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise boosts blood flow, releases endorphins, and promotes changes in the brain which help regulate emotions and stress levels.
- Students with number sense have an awareness of numbers and their relationships, intuition about magnitudes, understanding of equivalence and operations.
- The document outlines critical areas of focus in number and operations for kindergarten through second grade including counting, addition, subtraction, place value and measurement.
- Developing number sense in the early grades is important for later mathematics achievement including fluency with addition and subtraction facts.

Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
JC Sawyer Elementary School is holding an event on Tuesday, August 30th from 4:00pm to 5:00pm where they will be handing out certificates and awards for the Final AR Summer Reading Store. The event is an opportunity to look forward to seeing everyone there and anyone with questions can call Sandra Harris at her home or cell phone numbers listed.
The document discusses different types of monkeys, including howler monkeys. It notes that howler monkeys are the loudest monkeys, with deep howls that can be heard up to 2 miles away. Howler monkeys live in tropical Central and South America, have head and body sizes between 22 to 36 inches, and use their tails to hang from things for long periods of time. They live in troops and are considered the largest New World monkey.
A male jaguar typically weighs around 120 pounds or 54 kilograms on average. Females tend to be smaller, with the average female jaguar weighing less than males. The document discusses comparing the average weights of male and female jaguars.

Baby elephants, called calves, are born very small at 3 inches tall but can grow up to 13 feet tall and weigh over 24,000 pounds. Elephants eat hundreds of pounds of plants per day and drink over 30 gallons of water. Rabbits can range widely in size, from 1 to 30 pounds for domestic rabbits, while wild rabbits are typically smaller at 2-3 pounds and about 16 inches long. The author researched habits of elephants and rabbits by persistently seeking information through written notes and computer research.
The boa constrictor is a large snake found in Central and South America. It kills its prey by coiling its body around the animal and squeezing tightly, suffocating it. Boa constrictors can grow up to 13 feet in length and eat a variety of prey from small mammals to large birds and even deer.
Dogs come in a wide range of sizes, with males typically weighing up to 109kg or 240lbs, and standing up to 89cm or 35 inches tall. Dogs should drink 50ml of water per pound of body weight each day. They eat three times a day and sleep 12 hours a day. Greyhounds can run at an average speed of 17 miles per hour. The author showed habits of mind by persisting to find information and thinking about their own thinking.
The hummingbird is one of the smallest birds, weighing between 0.06 and 0.8 ounces. They live in Central and South America in areas with suitable plants for food from sea level up to 16,500 feet. Hummingbirds can fly at speeds up to 93 miles per hour for short distances and have wingspans ranging from 8.6 to 13.7 inches including tail feathers. Their eggs weigh up to 0.3 by 0.43 inches and hummingbirds can live 6 to 12 years.

For the new Common Core State Standards that will be effective in all North Carolina schools in the 2012-13.
This document is designed to help North Carolina educators teach the Common Core (Standard Course of Study). NCDPI staff are continually
updating and improving these tools to better serve teachers.
What is the purpose of this document?
To increase student achievement by ensuring educators understand specifically what the new standards mean a student must know,
understand and be able to do.
What is in the document?
Descriptions of what each standard means a student will know, understand and be able to do. The “unpacking” of the standards done in this
document is an effort to answer a simple question “What does this standard mean that a student must know and be able to do?” and to
ensure the description is helpful, specific and comprehensive for educators.
How do I send Feedback?
We intend the explanations and examples in this document to be helpful and specific. That said, we believe that as this document is used,
teachers and educators will find ways in which the unpacking can be improved and made ever more useful. Please send feedback to us at
feedback@dpi.state.nc.us and we will use your input to refine our unpacking of the standards. Thank You!

possible solution: Charlie plus 10 friends = 11 total people
11 people x 8 ounces (glass of milk) = 88 total ounces
1 quart = 2 pints = 4 cups = 32 ounces
Therefore 1 quart = 2 pints = 4 cups = 32 ounces
2 quarts = 4 pints = 8 cups = 64 ounces
3 quarts = 6 pints = 12 cups = 96 ounces
If Charlie purchased 3 quarts (6 pints) of milk there would be enough for everyone at his party to have at least
