Though I do not typically support products, the presentation
that LuAnn Weynard developed for Math Solutions deserves consideration. One
strategy that she discusses at length is scaffolding. She recommends
scaffolding in one of the following six areas: teaching strategies, questioning
strategies, student collaboration, whole-group discussions, making connections
explicit, and graphic organizers.
Another strategy she discusses is Casting a Wider Net. A
variety of question examples are provided in which students are given open
tasks, control of the difficulty of the question, and offering number stories
with answers in which students create their own problem to solve.
