[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I agree with this but the people training the elementary school do not understand math. The people creating the curriculum really do not understand math. So while it is possible to train education major types how to teach math to K-8 students, at some point up the chain someone needs to actually understand math. I see ES teachers trying to apply reading/language concepts to math ineffectively and incorrectly quite often. [b]Math is not a verbal discipline[/b] and you don't solve vagueness by just guessing based on context clues as you do with reading/writing. Exactness and understanding how the specific values relate consistently is key, yet completely missed by MCPS again and again. [/quote] People keep saying that. But when I do math, I think in words.[/quote]
