This book was released on 2009 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problem solving is an integral part of mathematical learning. The process of mathematical reasoning can be traced back to early primary grade levels. As students get older, mathematical reasoning continues to be one of the leading components in mathematics. According to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards (2008), mathematical reasoning combines the abilities to establish mathematical conjectures, process mathematical arguments and apply various types of representations. In order to establish these abilities, problem solving requires more instruction than the drill and practice approach. From my previous student teaching to my current teaching experience, I have noticed both strong and weak math students struggle in the problem solving process. Students seem to sigh upon the ideas of justifications and explanations within their solution and prefer computing strictly with numbers. However, these students were capable of doing mathematics and making sense of the concepts. As an educator, the challenge rested on devising a shift in thinking for students to understand the value of problem solving. How can I connect components in mathematical reasoning into the students' daily activities while enhancing the understanding of the process in problem solving? I narrowed my curiosity to connecting reading comprehension as an embedded approach in the mathematical problem solving approach. In my search to understand a relationship between reading comprehension and mathematical reasoning, I centered my research on using a mathematical reading circle similar to the idea of a literature circle to bridge the connection. Particularly, I was interested in understanding how different reading comprehension strategies can impact the learning and understanding of problem solving. These series of curiosities and interests led me to my research question: how does the implementation of specific reading strategies: monitor/clarify, visualization, question, and summarization in a mathematical reading circle change 5 th grade students' comprehension skills to solve word problems?

Book Synopsis The Effects of Alternative Reading and Math Strategy Treatments on Word Problem-solving by : Leonard Dale Brown
Download or read book The Effects of Alternative Reading and Math Strategy Treatments on Word Problem-solving written by Leonard Dale Brown and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the relationship between reading comprehension and mathematical word problem-solving. Specifically the study utilizes a single-subject alternating treatments design to compare three different math word problem-solving treatments and their effects on solution accuracy for three third grade students who were exhibiting difficulties in reading and math. The three treatments consisted of a reading fluency and comprehension intervention, a math strategy intervention, and an intervention that integrated both strategies. The current study did not result in conclusive findings regarding the relative effectiveness of the three treatments, but did begin to show some promising trends that suggest the importance of including reading comprehension components to math word-problem lessons and interventions. The current study discusses both the results and limitations of the study, and provides recommendations for further research.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This professional inquiry explores the relationships between students’ reading comprehension and their performance on a grade six math word problem test, and it evaluates the readability of the wording for word problem test items. Students’ results on the 2008 Alberta Provincial Achievement Test for Part B, Word Problems, were compared to their reading levels on the Canadian Achievement Test and the Gates MacGinitie Reading Tests, to evaluate the correlation between reading comprehension and word problem performance. The researcher calculated the readability of test questions and invited students to comment on the difficulty of the wording for each question. This investigation revealed a strong positive correlation between the students’ levels of reading comprehension and their scores on the math Provincial Achievement Test Part B. Analysis of scores for individual questions on the math test revealed some surprising anomalies that deserve investigation in a later study. The author shares insights that she will apply to her own teaching to assist students to improve their reading comprehension abilities and their math word problem success. She also provides advice for test construction and recommends further investigation of this research question with a larger sample size."--P. ii.

This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Reading comprehension plays a particularly complex role in mathematics education. Word problems have emerged as a prevalent form of knowledge assessment within the mathematics curriculum. This places a significant emphasis on reading in a contextual form, which begs the question- Is math ability influenced by reading comprehension, and what are some underlying factors across reading and math that contribute to math problem-solving? The current thesis explores these themes in two ways- examining problem-solving profiles of students based on reading and arithmetic performance and employing these findings to design and implement an effective intervention for problem-solving in mathematics. The first study examines the hypotheses that fluent readers and strong comprehenders will exhibit better performance on math word problems, irrespective of their arithmetic abilities. Data were collected on standardized reading, math measures, and WASI-II Matrix Reasoning from 72 students across grades four (n = 39; 18 females) and five (n = 35; 17 females). Results identified two components of reading (Fluency, Comprehension) and three components of Math (Numeracy, Spatial Reasoning, Applied Problem Solving) as unique indicators of these domains using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Subsequent regression analysis indicated a significant effect for the PCA components model, F (6, 65) = 4.23, p
