Hi Everyone,

Sorry I'm a day late with Article-of-the-week! I thought I'd be
announcing a discussion for next week, but we decided to postpone it.
Since we have been sharing some resources about numeracy and teaching
math, this week's FOB article is from the "Mathematics Instruction"
issue, 4B:

Making Peace in the Math Wars
by Kathy Safford
http://www.ncsall.net/?id=318

In this article, Safford explores the theories that underlie different
approaches to math instruction, and envisions a math classroom that
captures the positive aspects of them all.

Also check out the NCSALL Website for another resource: The Components
of Numeracy y Lynda Ginsburg, Myrna Manly, and Mary Jane Schmitt.

As always, please write in to the list if you have comments or questions
about these articles!

All the best,
Julie
