Connecting Math into the Real Life
Math, like an exciting piece of literature, has many unexpected twists, turns, and shifts in the plot. And, like a story, math does not have just one possible outcome. Kathy Shultz, a fifth-grade teacher at Holmes Elementary School in Darien, Connecticut, knows that students sometimes see math as a one-way street. "They feel that there is only one answer, and when they find it, they move on to the next problem and solve that," she says. Her goal is to get children to see math as affording numerous possibilities — as fascinating as any tale they could ever read.
The first step to success in math is a positive attitude. Yet that's the last thing we can expect from many of our students. Many students, like their parents before them, come to our classrooms with valid feelings that make them unhappy doing math.
