9730698 Casey Boston College plans to design, develop, evaluate, and disseminate innovative mathematics instructional materials for teaching spatial skills, spatial patterning, and geometric concepts at the kindergarten level. These stand-alone modules will center on the creation of multicultural stories that pose geometry and spatial problems. Kindergartners will solve the problems using manipulatives and other hands-on materials. Based on NCTM and NAEYC recommendations, these instructional materials will do the following: 1. Incorporate gender, racial, and ethnic diversity in the mathematics curriculum in a substantive way; 2. Integrate mathematics learning through the kindergarten curriculum using developmentally appropriate practices; and 3. Shift the focus of early mathematics education from a mainly arithmetic-based curriculum to one that incorporates geometry and spatial skills.

9730698凯西 波士顿学院计划设计，开发，评估和传播创新的数学教学材料，用于在幼儿园一级教授空间技能，空间模式和几何概念。 这些独立的模块将集中在创造多元文化的故事，构成几何和空间问题。 初学者将使用操作工具和其他动手材料解决问题。 根据NCTM和NAEYC的建议，这些教学材料将做到以下几点：1。将性别、种族和民族多样性以实质性的方式纳入数学课程; 2.通过幼儿园课程整合数学学习，使用发展适当的做法;和3。将早期数学教育的重点从主要以算术为基础的课程转移到结合几何和空间技能的课程。
