82. Improving Teacher Quality (ITQ) Smart teachers supports the professional development of early childhood educators in math, science and technology. http://www.smart-teachers.com

Home Home Resources Links Contact Us N EWS ITQ Participants: Please Visit the Members Only Site for Detailed Information on the Program The Improving Teacher Quality Program is a professional development partnership between New Jersey City University and the Jersey City Public Schools which will give young children in Jersey City the chance to excel. We developed this program from the vision of providing young children in Jersey City a chance to come to school excited and motivated by their joy in learning, discovering the mysteries of mathematics and science in a way that helps them marvel at the world. The result of this vision is the development of the Early Childhood Math Integration Program, a sustained, intensive professional development program for urban teachers in New Jersey. This program provides systematic solutions to this problem in the following ways: High quality professional development in the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards and instructional strategies in early childhood math through the integration of science and technology. Mentor training for experienced teachers to support first- and second-year teachers in early childhood math, science, and technology instruction.

#1463. Kindergarten Math Center Activities Mathematics, level: Elementary Posted Thu Dec 30 12:11:35 PST 1999 by Elaine Magud ( Joshua Cowell School, Manteca, Ca. USA Materials Required: Varied Activity Time: Varied Concepts Taught: Varied Math Center Activities: 1. Cut out small objects on Ellison using fun foam - or use erasers from Oriental etc. Include a laminated strip of paper about 3 inches in width and an egg carton. Students make patterns or sort the objects. 2. Write numbers on stickers (round price stickers for garage sales work well) and glue into the bottom of egg cartons. Place a bag with small objects with the carton. Students can read number and count that many objects into egg cups. 3. Playdough, Mat, spinner. Write target numbers on spinner - many great spinners in most math books. Student spins a number: eg student spins 3 - student makes three balls out of the playdough and then creates a number 3 with it. You may include a large template for making the number. 4. Pocket charting: include a variety of number cards for students to sequence in the pocket chart. Remember to include a number line for self checking. 5. Macaroni patterns: strips of paper, glue, colored macaroni. Students create patterns. to make this more difficult - have students create half the pattern and then exchange with partner- each must finish the others pattern.

Most of us have traveled on an airplane, or we know someone who has. Do you ever wonder how airplanes fly? What causes the lift that gets the airplane off the runway? How does a pilot control the movement of the airplane? Why are the engines on an airliner different from the engines on a fighter plane? How does aerodynamics affect the flight of a model rocket or a kite?

Teaching Philosophy and Goals I base my teaching on the belief that the only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics. While the process of reading examples and proofs in textbooks and from lecture notes is valuable, the real learning comes through one's own efforts at solving mathematical problems, either computational, theoretical, or both. This is achieved mostly through class assignments, but also through in-class discussions and exercises. I view my role as a facilitator for this process. I must design the framework in which learning can take place, and then stimulate and nurture the students' development, giving help in terms of knowledge, techniques, and encouragement. My goals in teaching are not just to promote learning of the subject matter. I also try to help the students learn to think logically, learn problem-solving methods and techniques, and improve writing skills (writing clearly and concisely, explaining step-by-step processes, providing valid reasons for logical arguments). In addition, I try to help students see the course material in a holistic context by requiring them to synthesize the various concepts of the course by applying them together.
