  1. FOCUS: MATH AND MAPS

  2. USA TODAY March 4, 2002 “Teachers Make the Utmost of McAuliffe Funds” JANIE MACINTYRE 2001 ALL-USA TEACHER FIRST TEAM Math teacher Janie MacIntyre used her McAuliffe funds to see whether her success with Thinking Maps could be replicated throughout Rocky Mount, NC. MacIntyre, who teaches low-performing eighth-graders, saw her students make the biggest gains in the school.

  3. USA TODAY March 4, 2002 “Teachers Make the Utmost of McAuliffe Funds” JANIE MACINTYRE 2001 ALL-USA TEACHER FIRST TEAM Using teacher logs of their Thinking Map use and videotapes of their teaching, MacIntyre found that the more the teachers used the maps, the better their students did on the EOG’s. Overall, developmental growth for low-performing students quadrupled.

  4. USA TODAY March 4, 2002 “Teachers Make the Utmost of McAuliffe Funds” JANIE MACINTYRE 2001 ALL-USA TEACHER FIRST TEAM “Quantifying what works is a big step in improving the teaching profession and improving instruction for all students, she says. In academia, “If you don’t document it, it didn’t happen.”

  5. K-3 Students “Because it’s hard and we have to learn hard things at school. We learn easy stuff at home like manners.” “Because it always comes after Reading.” “Because what would you do with your check from work when you grow up?.” Why we study Math in School? “Because it’s important. It’s a law from President Clinton and it says so in the Bible on the first page.” “Because you have to count if you want to be an astronaut. Like 10 . . . 9 . . . 8 . . . Blast off!.”

  6. K-3 Students “Because you could never find the right page.” “Because when you grow up you couldn’t tell if you are rich or not.” Why we study Math in School? “Because my teacher could get sued if we don’t, that’s what she said. Any subject we don’t know - WHAM! She gets sued. And she is already poor.
