This book is exactly what teachers and teacher educators need! The explanations of complex instructional and assessment techniques, examples, and case studies make it easy to understand classroom implementation. I will definitely use this book as a text in my undergraduate Mathematics Methods course. --Mary Beth Calhoon, PhD, Department of Teaching and Learning, University of Miami This comprehensive book can serve as an introduction for preservice teachers and a resource for practicing teachers. It provides a thorough presentation of mathematics standards and approaches to intensifying instruction. Across foundational and critical concepts, the book offers interventions that include multiple representations and foster higher-level mathematical thinking. The discussions of mathematical language and 'rules that expire' are critical to help teachers avoid inadvertently instilling misconceptions and compounding students' struggles. --Margaret M. Flores, PhD, Department of Special Education, Rehabilitation, and Counseling, Auburn University
