Volume 31, No. 3, March 2000 From Brain Scan to Lesson Plan Neuroscientists are uncovering how the human brain learns, and will soon be able to translate that knowledge to the classroom. But more researchand collaboration between psychology and other fieldsis needed. BY BRIDGET MURRAY Monitor staff Down in the basement of Haskins Laboratories, psychological researchers are starting to unravel a mystery that has long puzzled educators: What happens in the human brain as it wrestles with words? Crowded around computer screens, scrolling through images that show the brain as it reads, the researchers are gaining insight into how we perform this crucial, yet complex, task. It's a scene being repeated in labs everywhere, part of an explosion of imaging research on learning over the past decade. While researchers at sites such as New Haven-based Haskins investigate reading, psychologists in Paris watch what happens in people's brains as they tackle math problems, and neuroscientists at Stanford University in California puzzle over unusual brain patterns in people with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Imaging research is pinpointing what the brain does as people read, calculate and estimate. It's also showing what goes wrong when people have difficulty with those tasks.

OBJECTIVES As a result of this activity, students will be able to: Recognize Egyptian symbols for standard numbers Combine Egyptian symbols to make equations Use Egyptian symbols to make a fabric quilt pattern STANDARDS Michigan Curriculum Framework: Content Standards and Benchmarks: Mathematics Standard IV. Number Sense and Numeration Number sense is to mathematics what vocabulary is to language. Students must learn to quantify and measure, concretely at first and increasingly more abstractly as they mature. They also must develop an understanding of numeration systems and the structure of such systems. They must learn to estimate mathematical quantities and to represent and communicate mathematical ideas in the language of mathematics. Standard IV.1 Concepts and Properties of Numbers Students experience counting and measuring activities to develop intuitive sense about numbers, understand the need for and existence of different sets of numbers, and investigate properties of special numbers Excerpted from: Michigan Curriculum Framework

MATH MAGIC Math Topic: Number Sense Subtopic: Place Value Grades: Learning Objective: Students practice mental arithmetic while learning magic tricks. NCTM Standard: DIRECTIONS Class Periods: Mind Reader To do this trick, students work in pairs. Have them take turns playing magician. The student playing the magician asks another student to hide a penny in one hand and a dime in the other. The magician tells the student holding the coins to do the following: a. Multiply the value of the coin in the right hand by any odd number. (The student may want to jot down the answer.) b. Multiply the value of the coin in the left hand by any even number. c. Add the two numbers together and say the total. The magician determines whether the total the other student says is odd or even and then announces which hand has the penny! Odd "Abracadabra, the penny is in the right hand!" Even "Abracadabra, the penny is in the left hand!" How It Works Penny in the right hand: Odd + Even = Odd Penny in the left hand: Even + Even = Even Mystery Dice 1. One student plays magician and announces that he or she can see through a pair of dice and tell the total of the numbers hidden face down after the dice are rolled.

Lesson Plans Book Reviews About the Author The Boy Trap ... FAQ From Fractions to Percentages With A Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes Grades: th Time: 30 minutes to read the book aloud Part A: 1 or 2 hours Part B: 30 minutes to 1 hour Book Review: A Hundred Dresses is a touching book about Wanda, a Polish immigrant girl who is so poor that she wears the same dress to school every day. Mocked because of her poverty, her foreign-sounding name, and her unbelievable claims that she has "100 dresses lined up in her closet," she and her family eventually move to the city hoping for better treatment. Only after she leaves do her classmates find out that she really did have a hundred dresses, though not in the way they expected. Overview: This wonderful book, which makes an excellent read-aloud, introduces children to the idea of tolerance and also provides a segue into learning about a foreign country, Poland. By drawing comparisons between Poland and the United States, students can make better sense of raw numbers about the population of both countries and flex their mathematics muscles. You can adapt this lesson to the abilities of your students. Materials: A Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes, Internet access.

Description and Lesson Plan for the Base 10 Blocks Program I want to start by thanking Margo Mankus for suggesting that I develop this applet as well as for her very useful suggestions and feedback. Visit her base 10 blocks activities page It is believed that the Base 10 Blocks were developed by the Hungarian Mathematician Dr. Zoltan Paul Dienes. If you want to know more about himself, you can visit his web site This page is specifically for teachers and describes a complete lesson plan on how to teach base 10 place value as well as basic arithmetic operations using this online version of the base 10 blocks manipulatives . The topics covered in this lesson include: Description of the Base 10 Blocks Program Uses of the Base 10 Blocks Program Introduction to Base 10 Numerical Systems (Place Value) Addition ... Concluding Comments and Suggestions Description of the Base 10 Blocks Program This program consists of a panel, as shown on the right, where one can click on any of three different block sizes that represent 1 unit, 10 units, and 100 units and drag them into the working panel. Once inside the panel, students can click on the blocks so they can move, rotate, break, and glue the blocks to do all types of arithmetic (and even extended to algebraic) operations. Check the detailed base 10 blocks program instructions to learn about rotate, break, glue, and place value mats!
