Unlocking Math Mysteries

On November 19, 2009, Mrs. Grover showcased innovative math teaching methods at Paine Intermediate School. Rooted in established practices, her approach emphasizes consistent practice and collaboration among students. Drawing inspiration from notable authors and researchers like Marilyn Burns and John Van de Walle, Mrs. Grover's class embraces interactive problem-solving, where students work together, explore multiple strategies, and engage in discussions to enhance their understanding. This learning environment fosters communication skills and critical thinking while prioritizing estimation and the reasonableness of answers.
