EDU 611 Fluency & Understanding: Numbers Ops.

This course centers on the Developing Mathematical Ideas (DMI) number and operations curriculum. Teachers will think through the major ideas of number in K-6 mathematics, how those ideas build upon each other, and examine how children develop those ideas. In addition to case discussions, the curriculum provides opportunities for teachers to explore the mathematics in the lessons and to deepen their understanding of the structure of the number system, computation within the number system, and properties that form the foundation for algebra. Attention is given to interpreting and assessing students' work and learning.
