Determining the value of a group of coins
What are the preskills?How is this usually taught?What coins are introduced first?
Determining the value of a group of coins
Identifying coins:How is this usually taught?What coins are introduced first?
Determining the value of a group of coins
Determining the value of mixed coins:
What is the strategy?What is a preskill for counting unlike
coins?How is this skill taught?
Counting Change
Making equivalent change Verifying change
Counting Change
Making equivalent change, Format 16.11. Identify value of larger coin and
determine the number of smaller coins (all of same value) are equivalent
2. Count a set of different coins to see if they equal a value stated
Counting Change
Verifying Change, Format 16.2What is the general strategy?What examples should be used initially?
Later?
Decimal Notation
When? Must one wait until comprehensive instruction in decimals?
Decimal Notation
Format 16.3: Reading and writing decimals in money
What examples should be included?
What can be introduced after students have mastered reading and writing money?
Consumer Skills
Making purchases with coins Counting change Price list.menus Unit pricing
Consumer Skills
Making purchases with coinsWhat is the rule students are taught?
(Format 16.4)Format 16.5—using the fewest coins
Consumer Skills
Counting change (figuring out coins to use and counting them back), Format 16.5
What is the purpose of this?
Consumer Skills
Price list.menus:1. Teaching students to read charts2. Testing by asking questions/word
problems
Consumer Skills
Unit pricing:What is this?How is it taught?

MEASUREMENT
Measurement
What are the two basic measurement systems?
What problems do the two systems cause lower performing students?—What can we do to help avoid this problem?
Measurement
Introducing the concept Primary grades Intermediate grades
Measurement
Introducing the concept: Demonstrate using concrete objects. How might you introduce length? Why? How might weight and capacity be
introduced?
Measurement
Primary grades:Common units and equivalenciesMeasuring tools
Measurement
Primary grades: Common units and equivalencies:
What is the basic procedure for introducing new units?
How/when is new information introduced?
Measurement
Measuring tools:What are the easiest types of instruments
to read?
Measurement
Intermediate grades:Metric equivalenciesConversion problemsOperationsWord problemsMeasuring tools
Measurement
Intermediate grades, Metric equivalencies:Format 17.1:
Part A: Prefixes less than onePart B: Prefixes for more than onePart C: Structured boardPart D: Structured worksheet
What is a preskill for this format?
Measurement
Intermediate grades, conversion problems:
What is the preskill for conversion problems?
What are the 3 steps in any conversion problem?
What is the rule for when to multiply and when to divide?
Measurement
Intermediate grades, conversion problems:
Converting metric units—what preskills must students have?
Measurement
Intermediate grades, metric conversion problems:
Format 17.2:Part A: Determining if changing to bigger or smaller units. (What is the rule?)Part B: Leading students in determining the operation.Part C: Structure boardPart D: Structured worksheet
Measurement
Intermediate grades, metric conversion problems:
Format 17.2:What are the example selection guidelines for teaching conversions?
Measurement
Intermediate grades, customary unit conversion problems:
Why is this more difficult?What are the three basic types of
conversion problems?What are the preskills for customary unit
conversions?
Measurement
Intermediate grades, Operations:What is this?What makes customary units difficult?What is a preskill for operations involving
renaming of customary units?
Measurement
Intermediate grades, Operations with customary units:
Format 17.5: Part A: When renaming is appropriatePart B: Practice (what numbers to use)
Measurement
Intermediate grades: Word problemsWhen can measurement word problems be introduced?
Measurement
Intermediate grades: Measuring tools
What approach is suggested for teaching measuring to the 1/16th of an inch?
How are students taught to measure?

Mathematics Study Skills
Graphs: What determines the difficulty? What makes pictorial graphs more difficult? What component skills must students
master before being asked to read graphs?
Mathematics Study Skills
Graphs: What does the teaching procedure involve? What questions should be asked initially? What questions are introduced next?
Mathematics Study Skills
Tables or Charts What is a preskill for using tables? What is the procedure used for teaching
students to read tables and charts? What types of questions does the teacher
ask primary students? What types of questions does the teacher
ask intermediate students?

Maps What factors affects the difficulty in
computing distances on a map? What are the preskills? What are the components skills that the
teacher must model?
Mathematics Study Skills
Statistics What are four basic statistically concepts
introduced in elementary school? How is each calculated? How are they taught?
