Reflective practice is at the heart of effective teaching, and this book aims to help you develop into a reflective teacher of mathematics. Everything you need is here: guidance on developing your analysis and self-evaluation skills, the knowledge of what you are trying to achieve and why, and examples of how experienced teachers deliver successful lessons. The book shows you how to plan lessons, how to make good use of resources, and how to assess pupils′ progress effectively.
This was a helpful intro book to teaching maths. It was recommended after my Teach First CKA. I picked up some good ideas and I feel my image of 'teaching maths' is building up. It largely agreed with other books I had read on best practice, which is reassuring.
The book was targeted towards new trainee teachers so for once, I was close to the target audience. Hopefully this gives me some good scaffolding for developing more complex plans.
