Math For Elementary Teachers II –

mth157

(3 credits)

This course is the second in a two-part series designed for K–8 preservice teachers to address the conceptual framework for mathematics taught in elementary school. The focus of Part Two will be on measurement, geometry, probability, and data analysis. The relationship of the course concepts to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Standards for K–8 instruction is also addressed.
This undergraduate-level course is 9 weeks. To enroll, speak with an Enrollment Advisor.
