42. My Philosophy fractions were taught by using the concepts of finding a common denominator andtaking the reciprocal. Money was used to teach decimals. Finally, percentages http://bama.ua.edu/~garne011/philstat.htm

My Philosophy of Education I believe that education is a tool used to shape the generations of tomorrow. I wanted to have a positive influence on the future, so I decided to become a teacher. Teaching is one of the most worthwhile and influential professions because teachers come in contact with a vast number of young people and have the ability to light their lives. These young people are the future. As a teacher, I believe that a large portion of the responsibility for a student’s education rests on my shoulders. I take this responsibility very seriously and I believe all teachers should. Teachers have a duty to provide knowledge—whether it is academic, social, or ethical in nature—that will help students as they embark on the journey of adulthood. Therefore, I think teachers should strive to put forth a good example of intellect, ethics, and personality. My personal goal as a teacher is to challenge my students so that they find learning interesting and stimulating. I believe that technology is a very useful tool to capture students’ interest. Video games, computers, and television consume the world that in which my students live. Corporations use this fact to market their products to young people. So, I plan to use the same fact to “market” education. There are many valuable, interactive-learning activities available for use in the classroom. I think the use of them can greatly enhance the learning process. I want to make learning meaningful and worthwhile to all of my students.

How can I train to teach children with dyslexia? Where can I find a test for dyslexia? Dyslexia and math/s Many dyslexic children and teens aften experience problems with math/s because of their difficulties with sequencing. Many have not yet learned the basics - how to count to 100 forwards and backwards, and do not understand any processes beyond addition. Jean Herold describes some techniques which will help. Background color: Off White Gray Cream Green Blue Pink Yellow Lavender Many dyslexic children and teens have problems in some ares of math/s, especially the multiplication tables, fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio and statistics. A dyslexic student usually needs extra instruction particularly as new concepts are introduced. With this subject, it is particularly important to grasp each concept thoroughly before moving on. If not instructed properly in math/s, it will become yet another thing to weigh down their self-esteem. Albert Einstein Do not forget to remind them that they are in good company here: Albert Einstein's teachers frequently punished him for errors too! Fortunately, he did not let his early childhood experiences interfere with further study. Sequencing and short-term memory Problems in math/s can arise from a dyslexic child's difficulties with sequencing. Getting numbers in the correct order, and being able to reverse that order is a challenge for the student.

57. Jams Portland on a more traditional examination that emphasizes arithmetic, fractions, decimalsand percentages. And while a promise to teach every third grader to read http://www.jamsportland.com/new_york_times__students_show_fe.htm

Back To Jams Portland Back To Jams Portland Back To Jams Portland The New York Times Students Show Few Gains in.. By Jodi Wilgoren, Sept 6, 2000 Despite years of efforts to improve education, American students today read no better than their predecessors a generation ago, and their basic math skills have advanced only slightly, according to a new analysis of standardized tests given since the early 1970's. While students have shown steady and significant improvement in the 1990's on a new math test designed to measure problem-solving techniques and geometry, the study shows, they have posted smaller gains on a more traditional examination that emphasizes arithmetic, fractions, decimals and percentages. Judging by those basic skills, today's 9- and 13- years old probably know as much mathematics as 10 and 14 year olds in 1973, the study finds; but even if those gains continued, American students would still take 125 years to catch up with their counterparts in Singapore and 83 years to reach their peers in Japan (assuming scores in those countries did not improve). "Clearly, the story is not one of disastrous decline, "said the study, which was conducted by Tom Loveless, director of the Brown Center on American Education at the Brookings Institution. "Nor is it cause for national celebration." The flat trends in reading Mr. Loveless called it "treading water" do not take into account the influx of non- English speaking immigrants into the nation's schools. And while a promise to teach every third grader to read has been centerpiece of the Clinton administration's education agenda, many states have emphasized math and science over literacy. "Culturally, literacy isn't as important as it once was , "Mr. Loveless said. "The role of literacy in American society has declined over the last three decades, not just among children but among adults as well. I mean, newspaper readership is down." The first of five annual reports planned on the National Assessment of Educational Progress - a set of tests know as the nations' report card - the study did not present new data, but offered fresh analysis. In addition to providing a sobering look a long term test trends, the report on the study raised questions about the criteria used for the federal government's Blue Ribbon Schools program, noting that about a quarter of the award-winning schools have below average test scores. The report also said that fourth graders who said they used a calculator every day had the lowest math test scores, and that black and Hispanic children were far more likely to rely on calculators than white and Asian students. Generally, math gains were highest among fourth graders, and dropped off for middle and high-school students. One section of the report focuses on the two math tests and raises questions about why scores on one are rising far more quickly than on the other. The newer examination, known as the "main" test, reflects curriculums that have flourished during the decade, and allows students to use calculators on some problems and receive partial credit for work done on wrong answers. The older, "trend" test is a multiple-choice examination of basic skills. Looking at specific sections of the older test, Mr. Loveless found that students have improved their performance in geometry, problem-solving, data analysis and algebra, but lost ground on fractions, decimals, and multiplication and subtraction of whole numbers. Mr. Loveless said having two math tests, with different results, confuses the public-and researchers. He questioned where the gains on the main test reflected real progress in math or simply an alignment between the test material and curriculums, and he expressed concern that there had not been parallel rise in the trend test scores. Jane Hannaway, director of the Education Policy Center at the Urban Institution in Washington, interpreted some of the math results as good news. "It shows we really can influence what kids are learning with curriculum policies, "Ms. Hannaway said. "We've been doing more of that new math and kids are learning it. We know how to teach basic skills. That's very easy area a remedy. But we didn't know we knew how to teach problem solving." Sharif Shakrani, deputy executive director of the National Assessment Governing Board - which administers the N.A.E.P. tests -said the newer test "tells us more about the relevant mathematics." "If we want to find out whether our students are competitive and whether they are learning the math they would need to enter the world of science and technology and information, they we need to look at the main math" test, Mr. Sharkrani said.
