Overview

Authors Chepina Rumsey and Jody Guarino continue their advocacy for math-curious classrooms, building on their work in Nurturing Math Curiosity With Learners in Grades K-2. They argue that curiosity not only engages students but also invigorates them to reason and develop a conceptual understanding of grade-level mathematical ideas. Dive into instructional skills that foster curiosity in math lessons and so much more. Grades 3-5 mathematics teachers can use this book to: Foster curious mindsets that encourage inquiry and exploration in mathematical learning Build a class community where students share and learn from each other's conjectures Invite students to notice recurring patterns, ask why, and develop possible explanations Challenge students to justify or refine their conjectures with observable evidence and data Equip students with a solid mathematical foundation to prepare them for algebra Contents: Introduction Part 1: Nurturing Our Classroom Community and Growing Our Teacher Toolbox Chapter 1: Establishing the Foundation for Mathematical Argumentation Chapter 2: Nurturing a Classroom Community Chapter 3: Growing Our Teacher Toolbox Chapter 4: Connecting Environment and Teacher Toolbox Through Instructional Routines Part 2: Growing the Layers of Argumentation Chapter 5: Exploring the First Layer--Notice, Wonder, and Beyond Chapter 6: Exploring the Second Layer--Conjecturing Chapter 7: Exploring the Third Layer--Justifying Chapter 8: Exploring the Fourth Layer--Extending Part 3: Growing More Mathematical Ideas Chapter 9: Finding Opportunities for Argumentation Chapter 10: Connections to Algebra Epilogue Appendix A: Instructional Routine Planning Template Appendix B: Mathematical Ideas Across Chapters References and Resources Index
