New Insights and their Implications
Just in the short time that I have been in this class, I already have a new perspective in math. I am beginning to understand that there are many more ways than I was aware of to teaching math and I realize that I need to learn these methods in order to be an excellent math teacher. I typically get very frustrated with math but I think that by learning these methods I will be able to be confident with what I am doing and hopefully portray that in my future classroom. I look forward to the variety of things that I will be learning and strengthening my math skills.

Posting & Commenting
This blogspot for ELED 330 K-8 Math Methods serves three main purposes, (1) it is a method of assessment for the instructor to keep track of your reflective thinking in the course, (2) it provides formative assessment data which help change the course, for example, feedback on the pace, explanations, depth and breadth might change the instructor's course of action in the tentative course schedule and provide opportunities for "Just in time teaching", and (3) it creates a learning environment where you feel like you can connect and make sense of the pedagogical and mathematical ideas in this course with your peers. Understandings can be arrived at as a collective rather than an individual effort.
Students enrolled in ELED 330 K-8 Math Methods are allowed to post and comment in this blog. I would like you, as a cohort, to use this space as a learning board in which you seek knowledge from your peers in the course about things in this course and help other's come to the understandings that you have. This blog has been created as a learning environment for both the instructor and the participants in this course.

We are going to start this course with geometry topics, which K-8 mathematics geometry topics would you most like a content refresher and a deeper delve into current and best-practice teaching methods?
