[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're missing the point that forcing kids to use overly complicated approaches that take more time to find the solution to a simple problem doesn't teach them the strategy in the first place. No one should be asked to write on paper a number line or decomposing to subtract 201 from 300. Artificial ceilings don't help anyone. Math isn't being a taught a manner that will yield any mathematical skills or ability. [/quote] It's one thing to say, "There are some things going on in math instruction that I don't think are good." It's another to say, "Math isn't being taught in a manner that will yield any mathematical skills or ability." Math clearly is being taught in a manner that yields at least some mathematical skills or ability.[/quote]
