Extractions: Welcome to Terri Husted's Homepage! A Homepage for New ( And Not So New ) Math Teachers This homepage was created to give new math teachers ideas and suggestions to help with their teaching. Even though I've been teaching for more than twenty years, I do not have all the answers. My first advice to anyone starting in teaching is to be careful of those who claim they know the perfect method of teaching. Teaching is an on-going learning experience. You will be challenged to use many approaches and methodologies. You must keep a balance between teaching skills, concepts and problem solving. Children learn mathematics in different ways and at different rates. What is often forgotten in math education is what is most important: You , the teacher . The way you present your lesson involves all of you and the connections you make with your students. Your honesty, your beliefs in what you do, the climate you create in your classroom, truly carry your lesson. These are the elements you bring into the classroom which are most remembered by your students. Also, when you take time to see math as your students see it, you will become a better math teacher. It is time in educational reform that we focus on the qualities of good teachers and not just good programs.

Tips For Beginning Math Teachers
This article contains many valuable tips for new math teachers. Some of thesetips can be applied to other subject areas as well. interactive, fun.

Extractions: interactive fun Lessons CD Forums Homework ... Newsletter numbers Advertise Recommend Puzzles About Us ... Articles by Gisele Glosser Try not to frown on wrong answers. It discourages students from participating. Critical thought and honest effort are more important than correct answers. There is no teaching without control of your class. It is better to fall behind by a day or two early in the year than to have an uphill battle all year long over behavior. Avoid talking over your students. If there is too much noise, sometimes the best thing to do is to stop talking. (I am famous for the "Glosser Glare".) Routine and structure are good, but too much of it can cause you and your class to fall into a rut. Try to vary activities from time to time. Encourage active participation from your students. From time to time, call students to the board, or allow them to work in groups. Avoid giving only teacher-directed lessons. (See our article on Cooperative Learning Techniques Try to be flexible. Math can be a rigid topic. But you don't have to be. For example, I have a strict rule against chewing gum. But I close my eyes to it during a test.

About Temperature
A very basic (prepared for the middle school math teachers) tutorial but still useful for professionals.
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/blynds/tmp.html

Extractions: References In a qualitative manner, we can describe the temperature of an object as that which determines the sensation of warmth or coldness felt from contact with it. It is easy to demonstrate that when two objectsof the same material are placed together (physicists say when they are put in thermal contact), the object with the higher temperature cools while the cooler object becomes warmer until a point is reached after which no more change occurs, and to our senses, they feel the same. When the thermal changes have stopped, we say that the two objects (physicists define them more rigorously as systems) are in thermal equilibrium . We can then define the temperature of the system by saying that the temperature is that quantity which is the same for both systems when they are in thermal equilibrium. If we experiment further with more than two systems, we find that many systems can be brought into thermal equilibrium with each other; thermal equilibrium does not depend on the kind of object used.
