Strengths-Based Teaching and Learning in Mathematics Summary

Strengths-Based Teaching and Learning in Mathematics: Five Teaching Turnarounds for Grades K-6 by Beth McCord Kobett

Your game plan for unlocking mathematics by focusing on students' strengths.

What if instead of focusing on what students haven't mastered, we identify their mathematical strengths and build on students' points of power? Beth McCord Kobett and Karen S. Karp highlight five key teaching turnarounds are presented: identify teaching strengths, leverage students' strengths, design instruction from a strengths-based perspective, help students identify their points of power, and promote strengths in the school community. Each chapter provides opportunities to reflect and transfer practice while also sharing

* Downloadable resources, activities, and tools

* Examples of student work within Grades K-6

* Real teachers' notes and reflections for discussion
